(   i .   )  acquaintances .
   —   rarely allowing people to get too close yet always requiring resources for case - solving , it's unsurprising that sherlock has plenty of these .

(   ii .   )  friends .
   —   he doesn't have friends . in fact , as far as he's willing to admit , he's only got one . regardless , perhaps you're lucky enough to rank here .

(   iii .   )  best friends .
   —   an even rarer title from sherlock holmes , it's unlikely that this list will be particularly long . sincerest apologies if you're on it .

(   iv .   )  family / familial figure .
   —   while he tends to regard his entire family with contempt , sherlock cares deeply about each of them , only wanting the best for them .

(   v .   )  crushes .
   —   if you have feelings for sherlock , it's rather unlikely that will be reciprocated . after all , sentiment is a chemical defect found on the losing side .

(   vi .   )  lovers .
   —   possibly the shortest list of all , as only one name comes to mind . every person has their pressure point , their weakness , and sherlock's , well ...

(   vii .   )  enemies .
   —   be certain to remember he may be on the side of the angels , but he is not one of them . careful or he may just prove his sociopath status to you .

( all decisions will
be very selective . )
