Something that just occurred to me

If a friend insists on being thanked every time they do something nice for you, they are not your friend.

If a friend becomes irritated that you don't compliment them back when they compliment you, they are not your friend.

A friend does not require compensation for their kindness. A friend does not expect to be repaid for helping you feel good about yourself.

Knowing they helped you, knowing you are happier, these are their reward. For a friend, that is all they need.
