Okay so... in The Blanched Soldier, Holmes calls Watson an 'ideal helpmate'.
'Ideal helpmate', at the time, was a synonym for spouse.
He is calling Watson his spouse.

I remember in the books when Holmes mentions his 'other friend' from uni and the readers just going W H A T ? Holmes had a friend before Watson? And then one reads on and ahhhhhh of course Holmes didn't come out of his rooms for anything but chapel and OF COURSE he didn't talk to anyone of his own volition the other bloke's dog bit his leg off or something and the chap HAD to come and visit Holmes while he was recovering and NATURALLY anyone forced into close proximity with Holmes for any amount of time becomes his bosom friend, as proved by Dr Watson.

Confession: I love Molly Hooper
And reading books by sir Arthur Conan Doyle I actually really miss her character.
She was amazing. And she deserves the world. She was a loyal friend. A genius. The nicest person on earth. She was always ready to help. Sherlock valued her greatly (after John helped him remove his head from his ass). She was a bit lonely and she was looking for love but aren’t we all? That’s what made her a great character. A real character. She had her style, she had her life and she was freaking amazing and yes I will elaborate further this is not the last post you’ll see about her on that blog
