Please explain the meaning of this sentence.

The sentence refers to a man who does not have any family of his own but who has a special friendship or relationship (not necessarily romantic) with a female, which is similar to a relationship he might have with a blood relative.
A sentence that could be used to describe such a situation is, for example "She's like the daughter he never had." etc.

Thanks, Patrick! Now I'll try to express that in Russian...
