It's sort of worse. With relationships, if you break up, you move on, find another mate. You get over it. Once you're sure they're "the one", then if you like you can do a family startup and create some babies.
But with a startup, you don't usually have any time before you start building something. So if something does go wrong, the split up is bad.
It'd be like having a baby with every one of your ex girlfriends :/
I think ideally founders should have already worked together on something.
- philwelch 17y agoThe best idea may be to consciously "date" your co-founders by working with them on side projects, possibly open source.
- dnsworks 17y agoThis prospect is just scary to me. Personally I'd be looking for a co-founder as driven to succeed as I am. I've sat down with 1/2 dozen potential co-founders for one of my projects and have decided to go it alone because of this. I'm building a company to make money, not to give away the fruits of my labor.
