thing that consistently pisses me off about Harry is that he should 
know by now that when something weird is happenning---weird dreams, 
pain in scar, etc...HE SHOULD GO STRAIGHT TO DUMBLEDORE!!! Why, why, 
why, does he always deny, ignore, hide from Hermione and Ron, consult 
w/ others, etc, instead of going straight to the source!!!  It 
irritates me alot in this book."
 
Now Wendy:
 
Although I agree with you about this (it drives me crazy when Harry is
stupid about stuff like this), I think in this book JKR did a good job of
giving a believeable reason why Harry would be reluctant about going to
Dumbledore. Really, Albus is very cold to him throughout most of the book,
and I can sympathise with Harry not feeling comfortable approaching him
under the circumstances. Was it a mistake? Yes. But, I think, an
understandable one.
 
Cheers!
