Is there anyone in that year who wasn't in love with Lily?

hope  we get some sort of dimension to her, and she doesn't 
end up as the  idealised girl/girlfriend/mother she seems to be 
at the moment. Both  Molly and Hermione have escaped the 
perfectness; Ginny and Luna both  started out without it (hooray!), 
and Cho has blotted her copybook well and truly now.<

Oh, I don't think Lily was a saint, or at least, not a saint to 
everybody. Petunia certainly doesn't think so. I'll bet some of that 
frogspawn ended up in Petunia's pockets, and that it was her 
teacup that turned into a rat.

Neville, Ron, and Harry could all be said to love Hermione in 
different ways, and she's been there for both Neville and Harry at 
times when no one else was, but she's not a Mary Sue.
