Five reasons it is hard to be Sherlock's boyfr...whatever, and one reason John wouldn't give it up for the world.
I would love most if not all of the five things to be fairly minor stuff and not on the "he's a sociopath!" level. Like, "he always guesses what his Christmas presents are" or "he insists on eating from that mediocre Thai place down the street at least once a week."

The clock didn't actually make a sound as the minutes ticked over, but John heard it anyway; the imaginary grinding of enormous gears and the thud-clunk of tumblers, and still his phone was conspicuously silent.
No sound of footsteps on the stairs, either. Mrs Hudson was not chatting happily with anyone on the ground floor. No ambulance sirens, which he told himself was good. No sounds of police coming to knock on his door and say... what? We're terribly sorry sir but your, uh. Boyfriend?

Number four had me laughing out loud and that last part was just perfect. You do a great job of capturing their relationship here, with all of its ups and downs. I loved it!
