The context is important. You need some reference or antecedent for "this" to make the sentence clear. "This" could be your friendship, your working relationship, a flower, a tree, or anything else that can grow.

It might be, but it is not really possible to tell. What was he saying when he said "this"? Was he talking about the quality of the work, or the work itself?
Why don't you ask him?
