Im only happy when im in a relationship bec i like being loved and mattered by some one.i take better care of myself/feel better. is this dependent?

To a degree but...: If your happiness is dependent on a relationship then yes, this is dependent, but also very common. Everyone likes being loved and mattering to someone. My concern is you say you're ONLY happy when in relationship; it's mentally healthier to not be dependent on external things for happiness but most in our culture are. Relationships can enhance happiness but loving yourself is a good foundation.
