When friends consider going into business together but fear ruining the relationship

My best friend and I have been talking about starting a business together for three years but every time we get close to actually doing it one of us finds a reason to pull back. We both want it but we're also both terrified of what it might do to our friendship if it fails.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The very thing that makes them want to work together—their deep friendship—is also what they're most afraid to risk.
