Bold of you to assume he wouldnt need James.
Heres my big wolfstar pet peeve…when people think that Sirius being in love with Remus means that James is somehow not as important. Idk if you’re romantically involved, anon, but if you are I hope you havent decided that your friends just dont matter anymore.
I’m married. Rob is my best friend, yes, but not in the same way that my platonic best friend is. I still need her. She is still important to me and sometimes she can help me with things that Rob can’t.
No one ever talks about Sirius being pushed aside when James started dating Lily. I imagine maybe at first there was a bit of jealousy because they werent spending as much time with each other when they were with their respective partners, but Sirius still very much needed James. James saved Sirius’ life on multiple occasions and Sirius holds James above EVERYONE including Remus. James is his brother. They are family. And James wants Sirius to be happy and he wants Remus to be happy and be knows that they dont love him any less just because they love each other
^^^^^ ayyyyy as an aromantic person lemme tell you that shit is so important
I’ve had so many panic attacks when my friends got into relationships because the medias had taught me that their life would only revolve around that person and I’ll become the friend that visits sometimes but mostly stays away
but the reality is, even if it is indeed sometimes complicated to find a balance between your different relationships, your friends won’t and/or shouldn’t ever abandon you for a romantic partner. and assuming that it will always be the case is actually very harmful – to everyone.
strong friendships are essential, even when the people involved have a romantic relationship
