I went online to do a search "Bible verses about relationships" and got several good lists. There is a lot online that would be helpful.
A lot of what is written in the Bible is about marriage because God's goal is the marriage of Jesus to His church. However, there is also a great deal written about how we should relate to God and one another.
I would like to recommend eSword, a free to download and keep Bible study tool with many translations and commentaries. I read Lev 20 in it and read the commentary by David Guzik. That chapter is about Israel's relationship to God and avoiding idolatry and sexual impurities for men and women. These impurities are about dishonesty in our relationship to God. (Plus God gave us these rules to live by for our bodily health; another discussion entirely. His plans for us are well integrated.)
We all suffer from the pulls of the flesh although there are different pulls for every individual. They all divert us from seeking a relationship with God.
I hope that my post can be a starting point for your further studies.
