I have to agree. Starting a venture with a less-than-compatible partner made me realize I would need to do as much emotional labor to stay in the game as I would with a romantic life partner. To be honest, that really put me off from starting a company with anyone I don't already know.

My wife called my first business partner my "work husband". We remain close to this day. I think we got extremely lucky because we were a great fit for each other as co-founders, but we did take almost 6 months of getting to know each other before formalizing our arrangement (equity).
