Not all companions hated their job. I think you're looking for thngs to be bent out of shape about.

It's still not quite the same as a best friend, is it?

For children in this position the line could get quite blurred. For someone like Anne, from what I remember, it could disappear entirely

And some people might've enjoyed being a maid and waiting hand and foot on their mistress. But let's be real, situations like that aren't the norm and a friendship like that has a major power imbalance.

Life is full of power imbalances. It doesn't mean that interactions can't be pleasant or meaningful despite them.

Did anyone say it was impossible? I don't think they did? But it makes more sense to acknowledge that such a relationship isn't a given and question how likely it was that someone whose entire livelihood depends upon the goodwill of their richer, more powerful employer could have a genuine friendship with that employer under those circumstances.

You're right. It's much, much better to assume the worst about all employer / employee relationships despite whatever the story is attempt to portray.
