According to a new CouponCabin survey, 31 percent of adults said they spent more money on their friends than what their friends spent on them in a given year.

The survey also showed that 22 percent said they have declined being in a bridal party since they couldn't afford it.

Some participants in the survey said money destroyed some of their friendships.

Twenty percent "broke up" with a friend due to a money dispute.
