Krum and Hermione

Hello all.  I'm coming out of lerkdom for a moment or two to put my two
knuts into the pot.
I think the reason Krum and Cedric had Hermione and Cho instead of
family was romantic love.  We all know that love is a strong emotion,
especially when it's new like an infatuation or a new relationship.
Fleur and Harry, who have no romantic interests, have other bonds with
the people.  Ron is the first friend Harry made at Hogwarts, so no
matter what happens, he'll always be special.  Come to that, Ron is the
first friend Harry ever has.    Fleur may not have many friends, if any,
because of how aloof she seems.  However, family is usually important to
someone, and for all we know, it may be all Fleur has.  Just a thought.
I"m going back to lerkdom before I get a thousand rottom tomatoes thrown
at me for some reason.
