Heidi: <<<I don't see Ginny as crush-lorn over Harry at this point in canon.
There's been NOTHING in book 4 to indicate that she is mooning over harry>>>

Devika: <<<Personally, I think that Ginny still has a crush on Harry, but I
don't think that it is the same kind of crush she had in CoS.  Ginny may still
have feelings for Harry, as evidenced by her disappointment at not being able
to go with him to the Yule Ball,>>>

Julia: <<<But is it really disappointment? Harry certainly thinks it is, but
Harry often makes assumptions that are later proved wrong.>>>

It could still be disappointment, but possibly not caused by her fancying
Harry. In having to turn down Harry as a person to go to the ball with she has
also turned down going with 'The Boy Who Lived' and a Hogwarts Champion for
the Triwizard Tournament. She has missed out on sitting up with the other
champions, their partners and the teachers. She has missed the opportunity to
be part of the centre of attention for that evening. I believe that, even
though Ginny is set apart in the Weasley family because she is the only girl,
she must still get a similar feeling to Ron about being 'just another Weasley
with red hair and freckles'. Ron is looking for something to set him above his
brothers and quite likely Ginny is similarly after something that will set her
apart from them as well.

eyes hidden behind plain black thin-framed spectacles.  His dark blonde hair
flopped lazily over his ears and he absently smoothed it down as he entered my
hospital room.  He was quite fetching indeed." - Not Quite Paradise Chapter 6:
