I must say that I have found it a bit weird that barely of the adults 
seem to be married or partnered in anyway. Sirius I can understand 
being that he was locked up rom being 21 though he strikes me as a 
bit of a ladies man. The same goes for Remus as well, I imagine that 
it is very dificult to find someone when you are a werewolf. But what 
about any of the teachers? It does seem very strange that none of 
them appear to be married. 

As for the younger characters. It did seem to make sense that no 
relationships had really be very serious until now because how many 
11,12,13 and 14 year olds have proper relationships? But now they are 
14/15 it would strike me as odd if they didn't start having romantic 
pairings. I would be a little disappointed if nothing came of the 
Ron/Hermione flirtation or if Ginny didn't at least get one date with 
Harry. And I still think Hermione will be the one to redeem Draco 
(although I'm a H/H girl at heart)! Afterall if Percy can get a 
girlfriend how on eart will Harry not get one?

Sofie (who being a teenager herself, knows full well how frustrating 
teenage dating is!)
