Not only that, but often HP wouldn't approach Sirius because he was 
worried for his (Sirius') safety. Seeing how Lupin is the last of 
the MWPP crowd available, HP might well succumb to the temptation 
and actually seek his counsel.

Which is a good thing, because Lupin is the most level-headed and 
clearest thinker available to HP *and* someone who has learned how 
to deal maturely with the consequences--good and bad--of his actions 
and choices.
