I actually agree with you. I prefer H/R to H/H, if we're going to 
pair them up at all. I just think that Ron needs to grow up a bit 
more before it has a chance of working out. I'm sure you remember 
how very awkward 15 was. But they are far too young for any LTR, 
regardless of the status of the war.

I was just saying that I was willing to be open to other pairings. 
If JKR chooses to go with H/H, I won't curse the series and never 
read it again. :) Frankly, I think that they each need to find an SO 
who *isn't* one of the core three or secondary three. Their 
friendship is too essential to each of them to allow teen-age 
romance to jeopardize it. Of course, they won't realize that until 
it's almost too late. :)
