Fyre Wood (ME) replies:

Any relationship between Harry and a girl would ruin the whole basis 
of the story. It's a good vs evil story, and a romance would ruin it. 
Harry just can't love anyone.

I reply:

I can't see Harry falling in love with a girl and having a 
relationship. (Perhaps it's the Draco/Harry shipper in me?) But 
realistically, anything/anyone he loves always gets hurt. He can't 
afford to not only try to protect himself, but also try to protect 
another loved one. He's lost a lot already--and losing another loved 
one would probably tear him to shreds.

He can't get romantically invovled. IMO, he's going to die at the end 
of the series, thus making any sort of attempt at a lasting romance 
impossible. 

Though, I'd like to see perhaps a frolic or two in the Astronomy 
Tower, or perhaps a sex talk with Ron and all the details....?

I reply:

Unfortunately we only get to see a one-sided, bias view of 
everything. I would have rather seen more of the fights between 
Ron/Hermione after the Yule Ball, or maybe gotten into the mind of 
Cho Chang and why she rejects Harry. maybe she knows that getting 
involved with the Boy Wonder will only lead to trouble.

One thing is for sure: Don't mess with Harry, for when you do, you'll 
only die.
(ie: Cedric took his girl to the dance, and he died... Lockhart tried 
to kill Harry and he went insane.... Riddle tried to kill Harry and 
he was killed... see my point?)
