Hi! I found the statement in the report about mutual support (people provide emotional support to each other) as below. 

     "People stressed what they gained but found it harder to articulate what they     gave."(Helen Bowers et al., 2013)

Reflecting my personal experience, I also used to remember better and value more what I received help or support from others rather than what I gave them. 

I wonder if there is any theoretical ground supporting this.
