I adore this show, it is just so exciting and dynamic. It never stands still and congratulates itself but constantly moves forward.
This, omg, yes. And I suppose lingering in one stage or another and giving them time to sink in is the realm of fanfic. I'm so grateful for all our brilliant writers.
I guess I see John's reaction whenever his sexuality is called into question as more than just exasperated, though. He actually yells at Irene and Mrs. Hudson. And I'm certain that at his wedding, he would have preferred dancing with both Mary and Sherlock to cutting Sherlock out enough that Sherlock ends up leaving early, but he can't because he's concerned with how things will look.
I do buy that Sherlock might be far from John's vision of an ideal lover, though Sherlock and Mary aren't that dissimilar: they're both clever, often funny, and can be manipulative to get what they want. And of course they both love John.
Anyway, it's possible that all this drama about sexuality is to just build a deeper friendship between John and Sherlock. But I do think that something is going on that's not easily explained. I can't wait to find out!!!
