" Frenemy " is an oxymoron and portmanteau "friend" and "enemy" referring to "someone with whom a person is friendly, despite displeasure or fundamental competition "or" someone who combines the characteristics of a friend and an enemy ". This term is used to describe personal, geopolitical and commercial relationships both between individuals and groups or institutions. The word has appeared in print as early as 1953 in an article titled "Howz about calling our Russian Frienemies?" by American gossip columnist Walter Winchel in the Nevada State Journal.

The Businessweek article states that frenemies in the workplace are common, due to an increasingly informal environment and "an abundance of very close and intertwined relationships that bridge the professional and personal lives of people... [while] it is clear not Never heard for people to socialize with colleagues in the past, the amount of time people spend at work has now left many people with little time and desire to develop friendships outside the office. "
Sigmund Freud tells himself that "a close friend and a hated enemy is always indispensable to my emotional life... not infrequently... friends and enemies coincide with the same person".
