How does a long-term relationship, such as one has with a close friend or family member, affect expectations for reciprocity?

(a) Exchanges are monitored such that each person ensures that the partner who is indebted alternates regularly between the two. (b) Each person is expected to give when the other is in need and they are able to give, regardless of who has given more in the past. (c) Each person works to give more, thus keeping the other indebted to them. (d) It does not affect reciprocity. Reciprocal exchanges operate in the same way in both short-term and long-term relationships.
