I always thought that Ron's wrong love in this book was for Fleur. 
Remember his ludicrous behaviour at the banquet? There are 
several scenes in the book where Ron exhibits all the signs of a 
painful infatuation with Fleur.

O, I'll also take this post to make my greetings to the list. I'm a 
mother of two (both of whom adore Harry Potter) and a long time 
media/SF/Fantasy fan-type. Thanks for having such an interesting 
discussion list! I'm quite enjoying myself already.
