A friend of mine decided to do the business on his own

We talked with a friend of mine that we will be doing business together soon. He now decided to go on his own.

He was the only friend I had who was serious about his future and was reliable as hell when it comes to doing the job.
All the other guys I know are absolute cucks who would absolutely quit the their task to go and wipe their gf's asses.

So Ngl, this rejection felt worse than any goodbye I had with an ex. I guess I will have to go on my own as well. Always believed that a one-man show business is both depressing and hard to handle the workload for a new entrepreneur and thus wanted a partner to work with.
