This is worrisome. You are committing yourself to someone who is not yet sober or drug-free yet. I would tread very carefully with this one. He can easily relapse and then what do you do? Then you're holding someone up, carrying someone on your shoulders and are trying to save them from addiction. OR, you could relapse along with him. You have to think through these types of scenarios that could happen. This is why it is best to not over-commit yourself so early on, and to tread very carefully. You don't want to backslide yourself with your own recovery process, OR be responsible for helping someone out of their own addiction. I am concerned for you.
