now if he's thinking of Quidditch and homework as rubbish when Death 
Eaters escape, so he may not wish to focus on girls.

Eyal agrees:
Since the whole story is told from Harry's point of view (PoV), you 
can't ignore the fact that girls not very often cross his mind, and 
we are well-briefed of every dilemma, ponder or dream that Harry 
experience, with a vivid description of the going in his stomach 
(especially around Cho, in Goblet of Fire).
Some posters pointed out that Harry doesn't show any romantic 
feelings towards Hermione, and gosh, does he look disoriented on his 
date with Cho in that cafe in Order of the Pheonix!
In my opinion, Harry hasn't matured yet the feelings he has are not 
very solid. It could all change drastically at a specific point with 
no problem, if a girl will happen to fall into his lap and lead the 
whole relationship.
Cho expected him to lead the way, much like Cedric Diggory and the 
other guy from Ravenclaw, and Harry just can't supply this demand. 
That's just another proof that he's not built up yet for a serious 
relationship. Until Ms. right arrives and sweeps him off his feet. 
I can't wait for *this* to happen.
