I think the BR/writer relationship is very often a symbiotic one. Just about everyone I've beta read for has also BRed my stuff. It's not just a simple return favour, either. It's a very tentative, gentle "um...I don't suppose...if you're not too busy...?"
Never forget that we're in this for fun. The moment I feel like I'm stopping someone else from having fun is the moment I'll back off so fast you won't see me for dust.
