6. Sherlock Loves Molly Hooper

For years, fans have fought over who Sherlock will end up with. Why? I don’t know. He is famously an asexual character but everyone wants their ships and so here we are. Most out there want Johnlock to be canon.

If you don’t know what that means, Johnlock is Sherlock and John Watson together. But that idea kind of went out the door with this last season. Not because of anything that really happened, just because now Sherlock has Molly Hooper on the brain.

In the show, it was more about Sherlock trying to save her but he did get to tell her that he loved her. Not because he was forced to but because he truly does care about Molly. It’s not the kind of love that Molly would want but it is still a love that makes Sherlock want to protect her.

That’s the point of all the relationships in Sherlock’s life. They all are there to make him more of a human than he would be on his own. If he didn’t have Molly and John, he’d be lost in his drugs and cases. Lucky for Sherlock, he does have them so he doesn’t have to worry about losing himself.
