2. Even when he doesn't shout, he's way too often scaring Hermione
into agreeing with him, even when he's wrong, like when he forces her
to say that Hagrid is a good teacher. I mean, what kind of friend
glowers at you to force you to say what they want !? How much respect
does Harry have for Hermione if he won't let her contradict him ?? And
how much does she *trust* him, if she can't get herself to speak her
mind ? She's clearly afraid of how he might react at those times, and
I don't think that fear can be a component of a loving relationship.
That wouldn't bode well for any romantic relationship they might
develop : Hermione having to agree to whatever Harry feels is
important... It's bordering on emotional abuse IMO.
3. More generally, he doesn't listen much to her counsel, he doesn't
care much about what interests her, and so on.
I love Hermione, and I just don't see what *she* would get out of a
relationship with Harry... other than troubles, that is !

I agree that Hermione and Harry as an item are not suggested by the
books. Ron and Hermione are. By the way, I love the way Ginny
stood up to Harry at the DoM. Now that's a girl for Harry.
page 776, OOTP, US:
"Keep going!" said Harry sharply, because Ginny showed signs of
wanting to stop and watch the egg's progress back into a bird.
"You dawdled enough by that old arch!" she said crossly..."
