Me:

I'm less of a Ginny/Harry fan now than I was. To me this new, 
popular, tough, sensitive, athletic, and firey Ginny seems too much 
like a construct Heroine. She's too purfect. All she needs it titan 
hair with a live all it's own and and flashing green eyes.

At the same time she feels too... well... ordinary. To 
paraphrase/plagerize Tolkien, [Harry] seems much to serious for an 
ordinary woman. Thus Eowyn marries Foromir instead, and Arwen is 
written into the story.
