Do you really want to end up interviewing a co-founder? Like, they show up, you spend a few hours / days with them and then you know if you want to live and work and spend most of your time every day with them for the next few years?
Have you really tried to think though everyone you've known for longer?
Make sure you discuss with this person what happens when and if you start not getting along a couple months in. I've made analogies between co-founding and marriage before. I wouldn't get married with somebody after a good week. ;-)

Yet, I think that you can get a good feel for people after a week, if you do the right things and ask the right questions, get references.
