It’s clear that you and a creative partner make for a successful team. Unfortunately, you don’t get along. It’s nothing to be ashamed about. You’d be surprised at how many famous collaborators couldn’t stand each other. You tried transcending your differences, redoubling your efforts to be professional, or telling yourself that the results justify the aggravation, but it just doesn’t work. Thankfully, Mercury retrograde in Virgo offers more practical solutions in the form of restructuring your roles, bringing in a manager who can act as a go-between (or referee), and coming in at different hours. You may discover that cutting down on your interactions works wonders.
