Neri now:
I agree with Berit, but I'd say this moment is even more telling:

OotP, Ch. 23 "Christmas on the Closed Ward"
"'We wanted to talk to you, Harry' said Ginny, 'but as you've been 
hiding ever since we got back — '
    'I didn't want anyone to talk to me,' said Harry, who was feeling 
more and more nettled.
    'Well, that was a bit stupid of you,' said Ginny angrily, 'seeing 
as you don't know anyone but me who's been possessed by You-Know-Who, 
and I can tell you how it feels.'
    Harry remained quite still as the impact of these words hit him. 
Then he wheeled round.
    'I forgot,' he said.
    'Lucky you,' said Ginny coolly.
    I'm sorry,' Harry said, and he meant it."

This was one of my "wow!" moments when first reading the book. 
Remember the next two books are likely to be a battle of minds 
(literally!) between Harry and LV, and who has the best experience to 
help Harry in this? Right on, the little Weasley girl. Maybe DD will 
have to link Harry's and Ginny's minds with a legilimens charm so she 
can back him up. Now this scenario could supply some unusual romantic 
moments...
