There is no single agreed-upon definition for "codependent," so it's frequently misused or misunderstood. It doesn't refer to simply neediness or attachment issues. Codependency occurs in relationships where one person gives up power to their partner. However, that partner isn't willing or able to fulfill the other's emotional needs in return, so the relationship is off-balance. Very often, the person who is given power is an addict, an alcoholic, or abuser. They might be mentally ill and not taking steps to get treatment. However, negative personality traits such as selfishness, immaturity, and irresponsibility can also be present in codependent relationships without addiction or mental illness. In codependent relationships, the person surrendering power enables destructive behavior for the sake of preserving the relationship.
If someone has a pattern of codependency, they will continuously choose partners who can't fulfill their needs and drain all their emotional energy. On the other side, a narcissist, addict, abuser, chronically selfish person, or a person who refuses to get help for a mental illness, will seek out partners eager to please and make excuses for them.

It's very hard to find out who is going to suffer from co-dependency because many factors are responsible for this disorder. However, after doing some research over a few years, doctors have found out that co-dependency often affects a spouse, parents, siblings, friends, or co-workers of people afflicted with alcohol or drug dependency. Actually co-dependency is a term used to describe partners living in a relationship with a person suffering from alcoholism or other kind of addiction.
Co-dependency is also found among the families where a case of chronic disease or mental illness has been found.
Today, co-dependency has broadened to describe any co-dependent person belonging to any kind of dysfunctional family.
