Your Question:

What if my business partner takes over my business?

Answer:

If your business partner takes over your business, it's essential to consider the nature of your partnership. In some cultures, personal relationships are more significant than in Western settings, and establishing trust through shared experiences, like eating a meal together, is crucial. However, if your partner takes over the business, it may indicate a shift in the power dynamic and potentially alter the trust you've built.

In a covenantal relationship, the good of the relationship takes precedence over individual needs. If you've entered into a business partnership that's covenantal in nature, you may feel obligated to continue the relationship even if your partner takes over. However, if the partnership is based on mutual benefit and convenience, you may have more flexibility to reevaluate the relationship.

In any case, it's essential to assess whether the partnership is still serving your best interests and if you can continue to work together effectively. If you feel that the relationship has become one-sided or that your needs are no longer being met, it may be time to reevaluate the partnership and consider whether it's still worth continuing.
