A Question I'm Pondering re. House

deelaundryIn the latest episode of House MD, House says that he needs Cuddy. And Cuddy says House needs her.
What I can't figure out, given what we have been shown on the show, is why House needs Cuddy. The show has shown us very clearly why House needs Wilson. It's shown us why House needs his team. It's shown us why House needs Cuddy as a boss.
Why does House need Cuddy (as opposed to someone else) as a girlfriend? "She has a zesty bod" is not enough.
(Note, there is also a distinction between "need" and "love." Love can be completely without reason. Need requires a "what for.")
No Cuddy-Hate will be tolerated in comments. You do not have to like her; you do have to be civil and reasoned in your discussion of her.
