The only time I ran into a situation where I was not only hurt but offended was when my best gf got married (no wedding cake b/c they eloped in Jamaica-I did take them 4hrs both way to the airport but that’s what friends are for lol) anyway after she found out I had decided to actually expand into a real business, we weren’t even talking about it but she said out of the blue that she would not ever order a cake for me because her new mother in law makes all the family cakes (not professionally). I am not sure if it was the way she blurted it out like she had been saving it up for me or if I just thought it was silly to say, I would never hit them or any of my friends up to purchase from me. If I offer it’s free! Anyway, two weeks later her and her husband asked my fiancé and I to join some pyramid thing with them to help their business! I was just so shocked that she wanted me to invest my money for her company and flat out tell me never expect any support from her in my business lol. But maybe that’s why it is awkward doing business with friends/family, I have a difficult time charging them when they ask!
