Maybe I read what you wrote wrong, but it looks like you are just asking if it is good for someone in recovery to be with people who are clean and live well. I think the answer to this is yes. I think people are thinking your saying that you feel like you can save him, or you can keep him clean. I dont think that is a responsibility you want to take on and from what I can gather that would be codependent because your not making it a real relationship, your making it about saving someone.
