As the writers of Sherlock so kindly told us in series three about coincidences, “The universe is rarely so lazy.”

It is not a coincidence that John licks his lips while hitting on an attractive woman, and then again when he is “totally not” hitting on Sherlock.
It is not a coincidence that John looks at another attractive woman the same way he looks at Sherlock (platonic my ass).
It is not a coincidence that the scene where Irene tries to seduce Sherlock is shot with the same angle and movements as the scene where John “doesn’t mind.”

It is not a coincidence that Molly and John both say the same line after altering their physical appearance for Sherlock (you’re not fooling anyone, John.)
It is not a coincidence that Sherlock said “Oscillation on the pavement always means there’s a love affair.” in TSOT, when just the episode before we saw John mimicking the girl’s actions in the same lighting, color scheme, and location.

Just remember, “The universe is rarely so lazy.“ 

and apparently neither are the writers of Sherlock

And don’t forget the other line that John and Molly share in TEH…

… and how bad their “move on” goes in HLV.
