Personally, I think Cho's feelings of grief are less of an obstacle 
than Harry's feelings of guilt. He blames himself for Cedric's death, 
and as such I think he'd feel guilty foor even THINKING about 
pursuing Cho now. And after he's taken a step back, I'm sure he'll 
realize that his feelings for Cho pretty much began & ended 
with "she's hot". His feelings are nothing more than a crush on a 
girl he doesn't even know, based entirely on her physical 
attractiveness. By the time she's gotten past her grief & he's gotten 
past his guilt, I don't think he'll be interested in her anymore.
