hi i’m the last anon i wasn’t very clear sorry i meant if there are any canon confirmations that she wouldn’t go out with him if he was still hexing snape behind her back
oh I see! No, as far as I know there aren't. I mean we can deduce that Lily is a character who wouldn't tolerate certain behaviour; on the other hand we know she's pretty capable of forgiveness, as she displays this towards Sev and James. I think it's fair to assume that she wouldn't be going out with James if he was still behaving the way he did in SWM.
Honestly I think that conversation with Sirius and Remus should be taken somewhat with a grain of salt. We don't know how much exactly they were aware of, theirs is very much an outsider perspective on James and Lily's relationship and they just seem to be speculating. Sirius is guessing, from what he knows, that Lily was mostly unaware of any confrontations with Snape during 7th year. It's possible she found out at some point and Sirius just wasn't privy to whatever conversation/conflict James and Lily had about it. It's possible she was aware of some instances but not of others. They seem to have been dating pretty casually during this period, it also seems likely to me that Lily didn't know about the marauders being animagi at the time even though she clearly found out later.
