Relationships can definitely be used as a "fix" just like street drugs can. I am not saying this is the case but it happens a lot.
Relationships can also be used to be very healing if both people know how to do it. If he is someone who listens, does not judge, accepts you warts and all, validates your feelings, mirrors, etc. it can be very healing and you can do the same for him.
