Close friend?

I am in a relationship with a younger man who recently admitted himself to a detox program. Although the words "permanant" and "marriage" have never been used to describe our relationship, I still care deeply about him. I realize I had been enabling him, and I desperately want to help him now in any way I can.I also don't want the relationship to end, but I'm not sure how AA or Al-anon views this type of relationship. I'm not family, and I have no idea what to do. Should I go to Al-Anon meetings? Is there another group? How do I let him know I'm here for him?
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
