What haunted? When in PoA or GoF do we get the impression that Ginny
is 'haunted' by Voldemort. If that event is going to bring them
together - why the two years plus wait after the fact?
What do Harry and Hermione have between them? Nothing much, just 4
years of abiding friendship, shared experiences, and time travel.
Hermione helped Harry save possibly the most important figure in
Harry's life (his Godfather - a connection to his parents).

Hermione is not making him live up to the vision of what he could be
either, IMHO - she's trying to help in survive.
