"And how did Ginny enter into this post? I don't remember
mentioning her as opposed to Hermione as Harry's future love
interest.
I'm not a H/G shipper, even though I haven't ruled her out,
and it's certainly possible she might be the one.
We haven't had much in depth interaction between her and
Harry, yet, but I certainly didn't get the same impression
you got from reading the books (meaning what you said about
Harry not wanting anything to do with her to the extend of
rather eating scorpions)."
Many who ship R/H automatically ship H/G so they as a couple were bound to be brought up in the same thread, sooner or later (and you haven't ruled them out either - although I have). :D
You may not get it, but I get a strong sense of it - like Harry does not want to have anything to do with her - all one has to do is read in between the lines, check my post with the same header to Lilac.

"Sorry, never read the series and never heard that HP was
based on those two series ."
The series that you refer too is "The Famous Five" series - yeah I read that series when I was a kid! When JKR talked about Harry's hormones kicking him and not leaving Harry stuck in a pre pubescent stage of mental sexual maturity like Julian - JKR talked about Julian from this series of books.
Try to get a hold of "The Secret Seven" series - as said earlier by me, the " Both H/H and H/R interactions can be called sibling like - check out The Secret Seven series by Enid Blyton, You'll find patterns for H/H in Peter/Janet who are siblings and you'll find patterns for R/H in Jack/Susie who are siblings"! Hey, you never know, you might just change your mind after reading the series! ;)

I never said that HP was based on those two series, I simply said that Hogwarts (the school - maybe I should have clarified it) was based on the series - the only differences being that:
1) Hogwarts is a magical school; both St Clare's and Melory Towers are muggle schools, and
2) Hogwarts is co-educational; St. Clare's and Melory Towers are not.
