Super simple. When Lily and James died they were 21 and so was Suris, at 21 most people don't really want to settle down. He was arrested at sent to azkaban and after he got out dating was not his priority.

[@andrealaura1218]

We tend to forget how young that group was. James and Lily had Harry at a very young age. Some people do not gain the confidence or interest in finding love until much later. Sirius was very intelligent, maybe he was more focused on studies than love. He had the muggle girl in a bikini poster in his room so he did show interest in females. When you have a traumatic childhood it's hard to open up and trust someone enough to make yourself vulnerable. I believe that had Sirius not gone to prison and was able to live his life, he would have eventually found love.

Deniz Kenger that’s a, frankly, 2D way of putting it. I think there was a relation between his love for James and that of Harry, but with Harry, it wasn’t that he was James 2.0. It was that, because James, his best friend, loved Harry, Sirius feels it’s his duty to James to love Harry as much. That grew into a strong relationship between Harry and Sirius, that was different and much more fatherly than that of Sirius and James.

[@denizkenger52]

@@billysinge8977 i was joking tbh lol. Jokes aside, i think he likes him because he’s james’ son, not because of harry’s personality m. For the original comment, he definitely loved james more than harry. But james 2.0 doesn’t mean same as james as you took it, otherwise it would be james 1.0.

I was under the impression he did it because he didn't want to continue the Black name. At first it probably was out of spite as a FU to his family. But later when he became the last Black he considered it a duty to end the Black line with him. Even if he was disinherited any child he would have had would still have Black blood and would be forced into family politics.

Guys two characters can just be best friends, they don’t always have to be in a romantic relationship. Sometimes a strong friendship without romance can really add to two characters’ stories.

Sirius was rebellious, passionate and intense. He was also only 21 when he lost the people he loved most in the world and sent to Azkaban. I sometimes like to imagine him having a secret romance with a muggle girl or boy who he didn’t even tell James about. I do think people with Sirius’ complex type of temperament tend to fall in love when they’re older and have sorted out their issues. Because of Bellatrix he never got that chance, but we’ll not know for sure what secrets he may have taken to his grave!

[@loveatrej]

Because not every guy has to be in a relationship with a woman, get married and have kids. Personally I don't like when people pair Sirius up with female characters in fanfictions.

[@gerardomacias7370]

I still have my fanfic in my head where he was on the run during the summer break in book 4. Where he was in the tropic over in the West Indies, in a Muggle Village. Far away enough from the Ministry, and enough Sun to repel Dementors, he had a nice vacation for rest, relaxation, and keeping up with the Wizarding World. And around that time he had a fling with a Muggle Woman that could have gone somewhere but was given the message from Harry about his Scar Warning and rushed over, without ever giving any info about himself to his Summer Fling. And she never knew what ever happen to that handsome British man. We know he was attracted to Muggle Women with the Muggle poster in his room. My guess he never was interested in Magical Women, mostly due to what you said in this video. He wanted to as opposite of a Black Family Heir as possible.

[@nuffsaid4987]

omg . I would really like to read that.

[@ali-goregano1197]

Very interesting. I’d always imagined Sirius never wanted to aid in the black family name living on through him ie. any children he may have. So I always thought he chose to stay alone to let the black name die with him eventually. Sirius is one of my favourite characters along with Dumbledore

[@emma-be2tt]

its hard to open up to people if you had a traumatic childhood

[@Jack_of_Hearts4]

To expand on some of the things you said in the video: I think that Sirius' upbringing made him a good judge of character. Given his looks and personality, I'm sure there were plenty of women who were attracted to him, but after living with his family he understood that looks and status didn't mean that a person was good. I think this made him a romantic, even though he didn't always behave like one. I think that if he met a woman who he actually cared for romantically and not just physically, he would have pursued her. He just never found one. Now you can argue that he misjudged Wormtail and Snape but in my opinion, he didn't. I think he and the other Marauders always had a slight suspicion of Wormtail over the years but as time went on they came to see him as a true friend. He didn't betray them until many years into their friendship with him. I think Sirius' ego and underestimation of Wormtail overruled his initial gut feeling towards him. When it comes to Snape I believe that even though Sirius was cruel to him, part of his reason for doing so was that he recognized that a part of Snape was selfish. Regardless of how you feel about Snape, his actions were in large part due to his love/obsession with Lily. This isn't a healthy motivation and I think a part of Sirius picked up on it. He might not have realized it, but he knew that something was off about Snape and he wasn't wrong. Snape was a hero and sacrificed much but his motivation for doing so is questionable in my opinion.

[@tstefanyk6604]

It was love (not obsession), as his patronis was the doe. Some would argue love is the highest motivation, even if the one who loves is seriously flawed🤔 I also think that Jk Rowling intended the "obsession" to be interpreted as loyalty (even if it may not appear so to a healthy, functional adult outside the Harry Potter universe 😉)

[@Jack_of_Hearts4]

@@tstefanyk6604 I believe that is was both love and obsession. Not just for Lily but also for power. A healthy man would have either moved on or try to patch things up with Lily when she was alive. He eventually tried to make up for it after she was killed but then it became an obsession. Don't get me wrong, he was a hero and did the right thing in the end but he's morally gray. He wanted Lily to be his. A healthy person let's people go.

[@tstefanyk6604]

@@Jack_of_Hearts4 good point, he was definitely "grey" in terms of morality, and he had serious attachment issues. I would argue that his obsession with power was s means to an end, though, not an end in itself (ie he wanted power because he mistakenly thought it would impress Lily). Remember when he switched allegiances, he defected to the losing team - the Order was nearly defunct and Voldemort was at the height of his power. Of course this was motivated by guilt, but indicates that his love of Lily (however unhealthy) was the primary motivating factor behind his decisions, power was secondary. Besides, if he ended up letting it go and becoming a healthy, well adjusted adult, the story wouldn't have been nearly as interesting. I guess he ultimately suffers his dysfunction for our entertainment. Wow, that just made me feel sad, and guilty!

[@tstefanyk6604]

In any case, I do agree with you that, based on his character and good looks, Sirius probably had relationships. I just think we didn't hear about them because they weren't important in the larger context of the story. We simply can't know every single detail of every single character's life. Doesn't mean it didn't happen.

I have always felt that the dark legacy in Sirius Black’s family of dabbling in the dark arts and curses for so many generations overtime, attracted such bad karma that Sirius couldn’t just walk away from it even after leaving his family home. Its as though this bad karma accumulated over the centuries followed Sirius throughout his life. Most of Sirius’s family members didn’t go unscathed either including Blacks who were reformed or enlightened like his brother Regulus, Nymphadora, Andromeda, uncle Alphard etc.They were blighted by the family’s inherent curse or bad karma that caused most Blacks in the family tree not live past their middle age or lose loved ones tragically.

[@evyrys2725]

Not trying to start a ship war but it's clearly implied that the Whomping Willow incident put a strain in their relationship. They definitely must have cared for each other a lot since Sirius became an animagus to help Remus during his transformations but most of their love must have faded away by the time the First War broke out. Events from canon with refute Wolfstar as canon or even as close friends: 1) If Sirius trusted Remus so much he wouldn't have suspected him a traitor and kept him in the dark about the Secret Keeper switch. 2) Remus had accepted the accusation of Sirius betraying the Potters. If they had that amount of love which shippers (not all but you know what I mean. A lot of Wolfstar shippers are pretty nasty) claim they did then Remus wouldn't have been so accepting of it. 3) With all is said and all is done, in OoTP, Remus and Sirius never potray the image of rekindling their friendship. When Sirius and Molly break out into an argument, Remus doesn't call Molly out for her unfair words or try and defend Sirius in any sort of way. There are only two people Sirius has truly been shown to care and love, which are James and Harry (nobody better say that Sirius sees Harry as James.2). It can also be argued he cared about Lily since they are on good terms in Lily's letter but he probably didn't love her enough to be noted. Not saying that people can't ship them or can't headcanon them as canon. I'm a huge shipper myself and won't let things like canon stop me. I'm just saying that if someone can give reasons as to why it could be canon then another could also give their own as to why they're not. A lot of Wolfstar shippers are also pretty forceful of it which is annoying.

[@lilyelizabethstevenson8613]

Agreed. But to be fair, Remus suffered with a difficulty to love, or to show his love. You can see that with his relationship with Tonks as he refused to marry her for the longest time and then almost abandoned her when she got pregnant. I think Remus was severely traumatized after the Potters died and probably quickly accepted whatever reality was presented in front of him, that being that Sirius betrayed them.

When he's well enough he makes plans to sneak out, but not before sending a message to Dumbledore. He changes into his human form to write the letter after the woman goes to bed. However his plan goes wrong when the woman catches him in his human form. There's a whole lot more to the story but that's a sample of my idea. When I learned Sirius was going to die (by accident) I was so mad! Especially since I wrote an entire fanfic idea where he falls in love with a muggle woman. 😩😭💔 Well...at least there's an alternate timeline where he's alive an happy.🤷🏼‍♀️

Ok guys- what if he’s aro?

Wolf star forever

[@allysanchez7275]

Always guessed that he once had some girlfriends in Hogwarts since Remus once told Tonks ,” he always gotten the women.” And maybe there wasn’t any female witch prisoners in Azkaban

One memory also showed that Sirius did not pay attention to the girls who liked him.

Ok, ok, that’s just how I imagined him

[@tstefanyk6604]

Maybe we didn't see it in the story because it wasn't important for advancing the story line? That's not to say he didn't have relationships, maybe they just weren't important within the bigger picture🤔

[@talia1628]

This answer had better be cause he was in love with James and never got over him

[@micheleminor1106]

I thought that when he was younger he concentrated on his studies and having fun with his friends without having an interest in having a girlfriend. Also with the war against Voldemort he didn't have the time to have a girlfriend and also he may not have wanted to face the possibility of losing a spouse at a young age. Also his parents had probably arranged who he would marry from one of the pure blood families and Sirius wasn't interested in an arranged marriage.

[@ericanderson7454]

I think on some level Serius Black was a single handsome young wizard... he might have been aromantic or he might have been bisexual and in love with James.... but James was straight and in love with Lilly (It happens to us gay guys all the time. The secret crush syndrome).... Serius was only 21 when he went to Azkeban and he did not live that long after escaping Azkeban. Serious is a sad character.

[@lindalaufer2949]

I almost (ironically) laughed when you wondered about whether or not Rowling liked "torturing" Sirius. I write a lot (I'm not very good at it, though. I'm terrible at describing things and terrible at editing) and I've been in writing forums. I can say that being mean to your characters is a joke that comes up very often whenever I'm in the writing forums though I've never heard a story as sad as Sirius's.

[@RStartGaming1LOL]

He lived in a very abusive household, he was busy protecting the potters, was 21 nearly 22 years old when he went into Azkaban and he was running and hiding after he escaped.

[@MangarooKangaroo]

One word: Wolfstar

[@valerievillacorta7968]

In a weird way, Sirius kind of reminds me of Ewrin Smith from aot. They have a lot of difference in their lives but like Sirius, Ewrin never found love in his life either. He could have been both a commander and a husband/father but he chose to focus on his work because of his dream even if he wanted to start a life with someone else.

[@lanafell6087]

i love how u just said: u guys can't ship wolfstar bc jkr made remus marry tonks, so people would stop shipping remus and sirius.

[@terabaap1775]

Shipping Remus and Sirius or Sirius and James makes absolutely no sense because James loved Lily and married her and Remus loved and married Tonks. I like to stick to the fact that they were best friends, loved each other but not in a romantic way, just as Harry loved Ron or Hermione. Just like Harry and Hermione's love was only through friendship and no romantic tension, Sirius loved his friends in the same way. I guess he didn't have enough time to establish a relationship, he left Hogwarts and James and Lily got married soon. And then they had Harry and all the story about the prophecy, Lily and James going into hiding and Sirius being their secretkeeper and all that stuff perhaps spared no time for Sirius to establish a relationship. And soon after Lily and James's deaths, he was wrongly accused and arrested on the account of their murders and was put in Azkaban for around 12 years. When he came out, he had to be in hiding completely for 2 years having no scope of finding love when the wizarding world was seeing him as a potentially dangerous criminal. And then of course he died 😢. He was always too busy to be in a relationship. I'm so sad for Sirius for not finding a love in his life. Sirius deserved better..

[@ashleyalexander2847]

U can love more than one person

[@lalalalalalalalalla6673]

In the books (poa in particular) there are so many parts where you feel Remus talking about Sirius but the way he speaks about it, it makes us feel like they most certainly had feelings for each other people have opinions and honesty speaking I belive that wolfstar happened

[@terabaap1775]

@@lalalalalalalalalla6673 poa is exactly the book which makes me wonder there must be a plothole in Rowling's plan of the Marauders. According to Rowling, the marauders were very close to each other. But I seriously don't understand why Remus and Sirius suspected each other to be Voldemort's spy. You can't love a person who you suspect to be a threat to your best friend's life, can you? And if they loved each other, I would think they would've thought more about it than right away suspecting each other to be Voldemort's agent. That's why I think Wolfstar is not a thing. But of course, opinions can vary and I respect your opinion.

[@terabaap1775]

@@ashleyalexander2847 of course, but I don't think they loved each given that they suspected each other to be Voldemort's spy. I don't think you usually suspect your love to be Voldemort's agent, do you? I respect your opinion, btw.

I have a few video suggestions, Could you do a video on why the other Wizarding governments/countries didn’t help Britain during the Wizarding wars? Or how much the Wizarding wars effected the rest of Europe? Or what would’ve happened to the rest of the world if Voldemort had won?

[@100dfrost]

I always felt that Sirius had romantic feelings for James, and that knowing that James was in love with Lilly he let his love flow quite naturally into a fierce friendship, and a desire to protect anything and anyone that James loved .. except for himself of course. If the world and its circumstances had been different he might have found someone to love, and to love him, but that would never have changed his feelings for James, Lilly, or Harry. Or I might be entirely wrong, and he was just the best friend anyone could hope for. Good video, thanks.

[@immanuelwarshawsky2684]

I have a much happier theory Sirius just loved Harry as a godson and Remus as a friend too much to ever think he could handle loving someone else or in a different way, and it was the same before James and Lily died

[@jay8569]

I feel like Sirius was probably Aro, maybe Ace, too, but as other comments said, he did have a poster of a muggle girl in a bikini, so it could be that he was allosexual, but aromantic.

[@friedibernhardt4307]

He must also have been terrified that he might lose his loved ones again the same way he had lost James. Also it wouldn't have been his priority to find love as he must have felt he owed it to James that he would do all he could to be there for Harry. I regard Sirius' death as a salvation for him. He died in a battle to save Harry and he could quite peacefully rejoin James in the after life.

He never got the chance. He was about 21 when imprisoned in Azkaban. After escaping, he was hiding.

[@wikipediaintellectual7088]

Sirius was said to be very attractive in the book, and I think he would therefore have many opportunities with women. I’d wager that he had a number of unmentioned relationships prior to Azkaban. Like many of us, he was less than fortunate with getting them to last, and he was still quite young when he was locked up.

Do a video versus series Harry Potter vs Draco Malfoy

[@tstefanyk6604]

Thanks for bringing this up as I have often wondered why Sirius never found love. No disrespect intended, but I'm not sure I'm convinced by your arguments, though. There are other characters that had nasty parents/guardians/upbringings/ very poor examples of functional relationships, who found themselves extremely busy, yet still found love (seriously, Harry and Snape), and many members of the Order were married even though they dedicated their lives to the cause. Plus he would have had a very positive model of love when he lived with the Potters, right at the time when his teenage hormones would have been raging. I think he was maybe just too focused to think about it??? And why, WHY, didn't he escape from Azkaban sooner, especially when he did so using powers he already possessed from the beginning, right when he was incarcerated??? Things could have been much different (and happier) for him😢

[@lavender1925]

im not saying wolfstar is canon but if your only evidence to show that sirius wasnt in love with remus is that remus married a woman after sirius died, that is a pretty weak argument. for one, if we assume remus is straight that doesn’t mean sirius can’t be in love with remus anyway. but if you’re arguing that they never had a relationship of any kind, did you forget that bisexuals exist ???????
