How to address unequal credit in collaborative partnerships

My research partner and I have been collaborating for two years, and I've noticed they consistently get more credit in presentations and publications even though we split the work evenly, but they seem genuinely unaware of the pattern. We have a good working relationship and I don't want to create conflict, but I'm starting to feel invisible in our shared work.

More people experience this than they realize.
