frenemy

A person who is both a friend and an enemy. They can both cause one's demise and brighten one's day. Keep your friends close, your enemies closer and your frenemies right by your side.

My roommate was a frenemy: she would leave a sink full of dishes but she always ensured the fridge was stocked with beer.

frenemy

A frenemy refers to a company that can be both a partner (customer, vendor, etc.) and a competitor at the same time.

Sir Martin Sorrell said he counts Google as a frenemy of WPP, the ad agency empire that be built. On one hand, Google offers WPP a chance to buy cutting edge interactive ads for its clients. One the other hand, Google makes no secret of its intentions to allow anyone to buy ads for themselves, which could disintermediate ad agencies.

Your enemy who's also a friend.

Kitty Pryde is on the X-Men and Lance Alvers is on the Brotherhood. They're on opposite teams, thus making them enemies but they're still friends....Therefore they are each others frenemy.
