Personally I believe that the fangirlish insistence that she was OMG his twu wuv! stems from the desire to put themselves in Irene's place. To hold her up as evidence that he was interested in women.
Holmes would rightly dismiss it as romantic drivel.
God, I'm quite in love with him!
Nobody could argue that Watson isn't the most important person in Holmes's life, in all seriousness.
Yes, definitely. Jeremy Brett claimed that without Watson, Holmes might have eventually burnt-out on cocaine. I don't fully subscribe to that theory but I believe that Holmes and Watson are the perfect couple - in many respects.
I fully accept that canon does not really support my second favourite ship ;)
