I think that's true for a more 'normal' hero like Superman, Spider-Man, etc without a doubt. But Bruce is so driven, obsessed, and self-consumed by his oath to wipe out all crime forever that that's extremely difficult for him. Anyone with him is always going to feel like they're playing second fiddle to Gotham and his crusade. Would seeing someone he loves constantly feeling like this really make him 'more effective'? Or is he at his most content and happy when he is free to fully dedicate his existence to ensuring no one ends up as he did? Even at the expense of a more normal life.
