Do angels leave us when we sin?

Much of what we know about angels came from St Thomas Aquinas (thus his name “The Angelic Doctor”).

Dr Peter Kreeft does an amazing job of making Aquinas accessible. I highly recommend his books on the topic!

" 9. They contain the space in which they operate.

I always imagined that my guardian angel would hover above me and to one side, but since they don’t have a body, it makes sense that they surround us at all times."

 
Probably something like this…

When we sin, just as God does not turn his back on us and forsake us, angels don’t either. It is God’s will that we turn to him and ask for forgiveness. To that end, God may use his angels to prick our conscience, bring thoughts and memories to our minds, or create other circumstances to make us aware of God’s love.
