Marianne:

No, the word "loner" never comes up from Sirius.  He merely said that 
Snape arrived at Hogwarts knowing more curses than half the kids in 
seventh year.  And that he hung out with a bunch of Slytherins who 
all became DEs.  This implies to me that Snape was not a friendless, 
complete loner, as many want to believe after seeing the "Worse 
Memory" scene. On the other hand, Sirius may not be the best source 
of unbiased info on Snape.
