As someone who is the John to another's Sherlock, not only do I know it's possible, I believe you'll find that person someday. Best of luck, OP.

Or you'll fall off a cliff with your mortal enemy

You'd better cough up that Giles mpreg real fast!

Yeah, OP, it happens. Definite Sherlock here (and I suppose that I proved it over the last few weeks in some incredibly frustrating ways) who's had a John Watson going on seven years now. Granted, I occasionally wonder if she's stayed with me due to some kind of misguided belief that she deserves someone like me due to some misdeed in her past, but here we are.

[la-petite-singe.livejournal.com]

Heh, my mom says that sort of thing to me a lot too. I feel like it's a lot more hurtful than I could ever be, TBH. But I love this secret--I've kinda found my John too, I think, and it's a great feeling when you don't have to change for someone. <3

[kallanda-lee.livejournal.com]

I can't help but think, that despite what your flaws may be, that's a really harsh thing for your own Mom to say...

And as others said before me: It is quite possible to find someone who will love you *because* of your eccentricities...

[drstarlet.livejournal.com]

Cheer up, OP. My parents say similarly hurtful things to me but I haven't taken them seriously since I was a teenager.

I haven't watched the Sherlock miniseries, but based on my impression on the books, I'd say don't despair too much on the lack of a kindred soul in your life, continue developing your strong character traits, allow the people close to you to join in on your adventures and one day you'll somehow find someone in that place :)

It sounds like what your Mum said was sad, and really hurtful, I'm so sorry. But, you know, you're not entitled to a Watson. In most cases in real life, there has to be a bit of give and take, and you might have to try to be...I don't know, a bit more open to people (even your family) to help, or encourage them to care enough to look deeper. So sorry if this is insensitive, and all my sympathies about your experiences.

[(Anonymous)]

Speaking as a Sherlock who had to give up entirely on opening up to his family before he even stood a chance of finding his Watson, much as this is well-intentioned advice it really doesn't always work. Sometimes your family actually can't help or consists of people whose response to looking deeper would be 'augh WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU'. & after growing up in that kind of family it can take a long time to learn how to open up to anyone again.

But there are Watsons out there; I've found mine, and it turned out he was looking for a Sherlock, too - who knew? Good luck, OP.

[(Anonymous)]

Heh, so true. Above Sherlock notes that at the happiest point of my life, my mother was telling me that I was clearly clinically depressed. No matter how many times I tried to explain that I was living alone and not going out with friends anymore because spending my time on art actually satisfied me, unlike spending it on tedious social obligations, she kept telling me how much Prozac helped her and that I should try it.

(Having now met my family, my Watson is not at all surprised that I turned out so... Sherlockian. Sometimes family is an explanation rather than a solution for one's issues.)

[(Anonymous)]

It is genuinely both comforting and weird to know there's more than one of us out there, if you see what I mean. & yes, that, about my family, too. My father is also a bit of a Sherlock, but also just basically kind of a dick. :|

I'm glad you have your Watson too. I read your comment above - seven years is too long for it to be a penance, any John worth their salt would get sick of their own self-pity around year two if that were the case. If she's stayed with you for seven years I'm afraid it's probably something good. Sorry :)

[(Anonymous)]

I met my Sherlock and now we're dating. Shit happens, OP.
