This may be antithetical to the rigorous shipping that goes on around 
here, but I am wondering if Harry is going to have a chance to be 
normal enough to have a girlfriend. After all, at the end of OOP, 
he's just been told (as far as he understands) it's either him or 
LV.  That's changed him. He's a universe away from the kinds of 
things teenagers concern themselves with. I surely hope he has a 
chance to pursue a normal life but I wouldn't be surprised if romance 
got overshadowed in the final two books.
