Scenario

When friendship and business partnership create competing loyalties

My co-founder and I started this company as friends but now every conversation feels like a negotiation and we've both started documenting our interactions in email instead of just talking and I realize I don't trust her the way I used to but I don't know if that's fair or if something real has changed.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The evolution from friendship to business partnership has created unacknowledged tensions about loyalty, trust, and competing frameworks for relationship.
