It's been a long while since I saw the first season or read the first book, but I think that Ned had mostly stayed in Winterfell, only really coming out for the Greyjoy rebellion.

When the series starts, Ned is shown to be a little nervous about interacting face to face with Robert again after a long break.

They were really good friends once and they're still fond of each other, and Robert is willing to listen to a point, but not only is Robert the king and his superior, there's been enough time that Ned doesn't actually have the influence he used to. Remember how Robert reacted when Ned said trying to kill Dany and her brother was fucked up?

And he was never able to stop Robert from whoring around even when Lyanna was engaged to Robert and spoke to Ned about how she doubted Robert loved her for more than her face.

And he killed Lady at Robert's command (yes I'm still mad about that)

Same. But while I do think some people think he's held up as an ideal, he made mistakes and was shown as seriously out of his depths.

Also you could say Ned warning Cersei to run because he was telling Robert the truth was stupid, and it was a mistake, but from his point of view he was afraid Robert would approve of killing the kids just Elia and her children. The fact that Robert wanted to kill the surviving Targaryens probably just confirmed it to Ned.

They were a product of incest and adultery but he didn't want the kids to die for it.

sa

He just thought Cersei cared more about her kids than power because he does.

Remember, he breaks his honor to lie about being a traitor because Cersei promised to let Sansa live if he did. Which, hey, she did lol. (Broke the promise of letting him live but her mistake in thinking she has a good control on Joffrey.)
