An Encouraging Quote!

[StarDust]

Here is a quote straight from JKR herself!! She said it, no one else!

JKR QUOTE:
"Everyone is in love with the wrong people [in GoF]. Let no one say my books lack realism."

JKR QUOTE:
"Part of the reason it's so much fun to write is that they're discovering their hormones. And they're mainly in love with all the wrong people, just to make it lifelike. "

OK, so she's saying that everyone loves the wrong person, and that the relationships hinted at in GoF are wrong . . .riight? OK, so let's review:
In GoF - Ron likes Hermione, Hermione (somewhat) likes Ron, and Harry likes Cho. Well, according to JKR, these are apparently NOT the right pairings - which is good news for us!! ;D ;D

Weeell...Since Harry and Cho have already gotten together, and it didnt work out and probably wont ever again (as far as we know) we're already getting started on the not-working romances J.K is talking about...but I think H/HR def. need to get together soon!! I think theres gonna be some new characters in the last 2 books that maybe will play some important "romantic roles" with Harry and friends

*KT*

[Leah]

yes, but you have to consider there is still two books coming. i mean, there could very well be new characters who will play a very important role, whether romantically or not. dont get me wrong...i am a total h/hr shipper and nothing will ever change that. im just saying we may not get what we want in the books. thats all. *leah*

[StarDust]

Well, there's always that unfortunate possibility, but I like to keep myself in a state of oblivious optimism. Or optimistic oblivion - depending on how you look at it. ;D

[hgrules]

Actually guys, Jk was talking about Harry being in love with Cho, Ron being in love with Fleur and Hemrione being in love with Vicktor Krum. Well we all know that none of those worked out. And since Ron is totally crushing on Hermione and Hermione is totally crushing on Ron (Yes, even in Ootp just look at it! It jumps at you! ) So that leaves Harry single...for a certain someone... ;D

i get your drift.. but i still cannot seem to fit the picture with Ginny inside though.. if that is the certain somebody that you are talking about.. they dont seem to fit.. maybe because of the times where we would see Hermione and Harry and Ron together, compared to the tiny bits of snipets that Ginny and Harry share the camera..

But somehow aside from that, i feel that Ginny's crush on Harry would die off.. (no offense to any Harry/Gin shippers out there) and Harry might be left alone in the end, if what you said is to be true.. that Hermione and Ron get together in the end.. but in all fairness, we are just speculating..

YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR MIND SCICO!!!!!!

[DragonChamber7]

Well since Harry likes Cho, and Ginny likes that guy in the fifth book...and since JRK said that then Ginny/Harry could be a possibility...just my opinion...

[hgrules]

Don't forget that JK Rowling also said that we shouldn't be surprised if we see "our hero holding hands with a little girl"
Now, the only little girl I can think of in the Harry Potter series is Ginny. She is constantly being refered to as little. In Harry's first year, he knew her as "the little girl". In the Department of Mysteries, Bellatrix refered to her as "the smallest one"
And didn't JK also say that Harry/Hermione wouldn't happen? Didn't she just say a flat out "no"...repeatedly? But hey, it's your ship.
In my opinion though, I think Ron/ Hermione will happen. It is the most possible one. It's even in the movies. Hand-holding, the quote by Hermione in PoA "So, you want to move a bit closer?", and when Ron said his leg would have to be chopped off to get sympathy from her. I just think that JK Rowling wouldn't put that in her movie if it wasn't a sign of anything.
But I suppose that a ship is an opinion of what you want to happen, not just what is going to happen.

TEXT
This is what I for one think that J.K. Rowling was talking about...

TEXTIn the fourth book Ron was obviously crushing on Hermione and was attracted to Fluer so that means that those two particular girls aren't right for him.

TEXTHermione I think had feelings toward Krum so that relationship isn't right.

TEXTGinny had a crush on Harry like she has since her 2nd year. (And Ginny is over the childish crush in the fifth book)

TEXTAnd last of all Harry had a crush on Cho. (their relationship went down the tubes in the fifth book)

TEXTLuna wasn't introduced until the next book which leaves her for Ron. And she obviously has a thing for Ron. And why else would J.K. Rowling have introduced a character that so obviously likes Ron? (not speaking for her though I obviously have no idea why she would have done this)

TEXTAnd I think Hermione is showing signs of having more than 'just friends' towards Harry.
Harry just hasn't realized it yet *sigh* typical boy


TEXTKeep in mind that these are the opinions from a diehard H/Hr shipper.

[hgrules]

Who said Ginny was over her crush on Harry? Hermione just said she "gave up" on him. And I'm glad about that too. I would have hated it if Ginny was still quiet around Harry. Now he's seen her real personality. After hearing that Harry had tried to ask Cho to the Yule Ball, Ginny thought he would never like her so she tried to take her mind off him by going out with Micheal. She never liked him though.

Ron is OBVIOUSLY for H/G! He even suggested that Ginny and Harry go to the ball together! And who could forget that look on the train. Not me! ;D And if Hermione liked Harry, why would she help him in his "relationship" with Cho? If the guy I liked was going out with another girl, I wouldn't exacly be giving him advice.

[HermioneJanePotter]

Like J.K said in book 4 everyone was in love with the wrong people. And Ginny had a huge crush on Harry in that book. It is true that Hermione did say 'she gave up on him' but that means that she won't be looking for a relationship with him then right?

And so what if Ron is totally H/G? He's Ginny's big sister and he wants what he thinks is best for her. Harry's his best friend who wouldn't be better to date his little sis?

And I think (after reading stuff from websites like HarrylovesHarmione.com and www.destined-soulmates.net/destiny/ which are some of my favorite H/Hr sites by the way) that maybe in the beginning that's what Hermione was doing but when she actually succeded in getting them together why was she so distant when Harry told Ron and her about the whole Cho and him kissing thing? She should have been excited for him if she had truly wanted them to be together. And it was really obvious that Harry and Cho's date had gone wrong why would Hermione then ask cheerfully what had happened on the date?

[hgrules]

She asked cheerfully about the date because she didn't know what had happened yet!

[HermioneJanePotter]

>:(So Hermione even though she's the cleaverest witch in Harry's year couldn't peice together the clues that Harry and Cho's date had gone wrong? I mean I would have picked up on it. With the way Harry and Cho were acting after the so called date. Cho not speaking to Harry after that day, and her constantly avoiding him. Harry not coming to meet Hermione, Rita, and Luna with Cho. I mean I would think Harry would have at least told (if the date had gone good) Hermione because she was the person trying to set the two up. So you're saying that despite all those clues that Hermione hadn't noticed that Harry and Cho's date went bad?

And you never really explained why you think that Hermione was so snappy and distant during the whole conversation of Cho kissing Harry after the D.A. meeting. I would think that Hermione would have shown more enthusiasim over her best friend finally getting the girl he's liked since third year.

But I'm sure you just simply forgot to tell me earlier and have lovely reasons for all of these clues that Hermione likes Harry as more than a friend but she just doesn't realize it yet.

[hgrules]

What I don't get is how you H/Hr's can just IGNORE JK Rowling? She said that Harry and Hermione are PLATONIC friends. Do you guys know what platonic means or do I need to go get you a dictionary?

Katie: Any snogging with Hermione?
JK: Harry and Hermione? You really think so?
Katie: No, I was just kidding.
JK: More like Ron and Hermione.

Also, Ginny did give up on Harry but she still likes him. She's just thinks that Harry will never like her back so she's stopped going after him.
