It helps when one's partner can be in involved in a lot of the same things. The short run in TEC when he partners up full time with Catwoman has them "Batmanning" together, going out on dates after patrol, bonding time between Robin and Catwoman (she helps him cope with a loss, and they have what amounts to a step-mom and "kid-who-doesn't-want-a-new-mom" heart-to-heart). And of course Selina is a frequent guest of his at charity events, occasional helper with JL, and she could probably give some pointers on WE security. As for the brooding - she doesn't seem to let it bother her, and when it does she knows how to get him to stop

Honestly though, a big theme of his past relationships is that they didn't work out because of the reasons you mention. But it's one of the reason the Catwoman one has had such staying power (being too cautious to trust was their issue).
