Exactly my experience. Having someone to fulfill my selfish wants has nothing to do with finding the right person. It has to do with getting my selfish wants fulfilled. When I work on the problem (my selfish wants) via the 12 Steps, I get a relationship that is mostly free of selfish wants. The person appears.
