Fighting this much with a business partner, in my experience, doesn't end well. My best friend and I opened a PC repair shop when we were 20. After 6 months we were at each other's throats. The business stagnated and ultimately failed. Luckily it failed before we had completely ruined our friendship.

I've heard similar stories before, many ended much worse. Now I can appreciate much better that they really do happen :)
