There wasn't any textual backup for *Harry* being such an outstanding 
Quidditch player, either, but we all seemed to accept that without 
question. At least in Ginny's case, we already knew that she'd grown 
up in a family full of talented players.

Harry's inexperience with dating matters).  But, she didn't.  Hmmm.

Really? I suppose I might have read it that way too, if she hadn't 
immediately followed up her analysis by griping (and then sighing) 
about Ron. :)

Speaking of which,:

Can anyone picture them together?"<<<

Most 15-year-old boys are too immature for anyone. But, IMO, Ron has 
done a lot of maturing, starting in GoF. While I can certainly 
picture them together eventually, I think they both have a bit of 
*emotional* maturing to do before they'll be ready to have a real 
relationship. Just as well, since they are still very young. Book 7 
will be fine with me. Heh.
