Too many to count! You can find most of those times in the first 6 books, but there are a couple throughout the rest of the series of when both were alive.
Well, Spottedleaf for sure, and Sandstorm.
That is a tough question! When Fireheart first came to the forest, he fell in love with Spottedleaf. However, Spottedleaf was a medicine cat and it was against the warrior code for her to love Fireheart. At this time, Sandstorm was rude to Fireheart but later she began to like him. Spottedleaf died and Firestar chose Sandstorm as his mate. He knew deep inside that he loved Spottedleaf more than anything, but they couldn't have been together so Firestar gave all his love to Sandstorm. So its up to you to decide; who do you think he likes better? As for Cinderpelt, Firestar didn't love her in the way he loved Sandstorm. Firestar was Cinderpelt's mentor before she was crippled in her accident at the Thunderpath. Firestar was good friends with Cinderpelt, but nothing more.
Sometime in the original series. I know that they were in love by The Darkest Hour, and I believe they began to like each other in Rising Storm. They both confessed their love for each other in The Dangerous Path. Sandstorm at least fell in love with Firestar in book three (Forest of Secrets). Maybe Firestar only fell in love with her in book four (Rising Storm), but Sandstorm had already fallen in love long before he fell in love with her.
I think 9 times.
Firestar realizes, that StarClan has lied to him. There has always been 4 clans they told him. THunderClan, WindClan, SahdowClan and RiverClan. But they lied. Many moons before, SkyClan had lived there too. But the other 4 clans drove them away, and SkyClan scattered, never to be remembered... Firestar has viollent dreams of scattering, wailing cats. But they do not hear him, or see him. Then, Skyclan's old leader visit's Firestar's dreams, and tells him he must rebuild SkyClan. HE beleives only Firestar can help. So, with the help of his mate, Sandstorm, they make a journey down the stream, where the old cats had fled. They go through many adventures, attacks and new friends. When the finally reach the place Skyclan must be rebuilt ... Firestar and his mate find loners and kittypets who had been desendened from Skyclan. You can tell they where from clan clan, the kittypets who joined, because of their rough, made-to-jump-high-and-climb-rocks pads. Firestar finds a leader for the clan. A medicine cat. Kits, apprentices, warriors, queens. They set boundries, and learn how to hunt better. Sandstorm helps Echosong, the medicine cat, with some herbs she knows. Two shall die ... one shall leave ... a new leader has been made, and the clan is rebuilt. Finally. Also, Spottedleaf helps Sandstorm realize that even though Firestar and Spottedleaf loved each toher, they could never be. She was a medicine cat. SHe told Sandstorm that Firestar and Sandstorm, are perfect. At the very end, Sandstorm also kits two kits. Leafkit, in honor of Spottedleaf, and the leader of SkyClan. Squirrelkit, because of her orange-ness, and poofy tail.
It is believed Silverstream gave Firestar a life because she was close with him and Graystripe. Firestar helped her and Graystripe many times, so maybe she wanted to repay the favor.

If Firestar didn't save Sandpaw from falling of the gorge, she would die. Then they will never be mates, like Spottedleaf and Firestar. If she didn't die, she would get seriously injured like Brightheart.
Not saying Cinderpelt hated Sandstorm, it's just that Cinderpelt DID have a crush on Fireheart it's just that Cinderpelt always had feelings for Fireheart but she already knew she couldn't be mates with Fireheart for two reasons Medicine cats were forbidden to have a relationship and have kits. She knew Sandstorm won Fireheart's heart. So i guess Cinderpelt was jealous of Sandstorm for many reasons
Nobody knows exactly how many litters Firestar's parents had, but we do know that they had at least two.
As of The Fourth Apprentice, Firestar has lost 5 lives, and he has 4 left,.
yes but not many
