How founder peer groups become comparison instead of collaboration

Our startup cohort from the accelerator stays in touch and we all give each other advice but I've noticed we only share the metrics and milestones that make us look good, never the real numbers or the stuff that's actually falling apart. We're supposed to be helping each other but we're all too worried about looking weak.
