Guilty by Association?

Do the actions of one half of a partnership (relationship, collaboration, whatever) automatically impact the perception of the other half?

As hard as I try to believe that we are seen as individuals, I'm finding that there are people who will condemn me for the choices of another with whom I am closely associated.

So, do I expect more from those who choose to perceive us jointly or do I remove the source of the negative associations? Words of wisdom, anyone?
