I've discovered my best friend, whom I trust implicitly, has been quietly taking credit for a significant portion of my creative work in a collaborative project we're presenting, and if I expose them, it could ruin their reputation and our friendship, but if I stay silent, it feels like a betrayal of myself. What should I do?
