Modern Morals: My friend and I are both content creators. She stole my business idea- now it's a big success
Briefly

A content creator felt anger and betrayal after a friend launched a project based on a unique business idea disclosed during a night out. The idea aimed to build community and monetize personal branding in Ireland. The creator believed the concept was innovative, and no one else was pursuing it in the region. The realization that the friend claimed the idea as her own led to feelings of frustration and questioning of their friendship's integrity and ethical implications in the creative industry.
I shared my unique business idea with my friend, confident it was something no one else in Ireland had attempted. My excitement was palpable.
After discussing the concept, I noticed my friend launched a similar project, claiming credit for an idea I had shared with her during our night out.
Spearheading a project that directly mirrors my innovative concept feels like a betrayal, as it undermines the trust we shared as friends and creators.
This experience has left me frustrated and angry, leading me to question the integrity of our friendship and the ethics of creativity in content creation.
