Although anything is possible, I find it difficult to believe that his  
circle of close friends is going to stretch even further.   The trio  is now a 
sextet and I doubt it will go beyond that.   
 
As for relationships, don't be surprised if there aren't any firm ones  until 
the epilogue.  At age 17, teenagers have a tendency to distance  themselves 
from friends when in a relationship.  That would hurt the  story.  Think about 
Harry with any girl other than Hermione and we have  taken Ron and Hermione 
out of the story.  Remember this story is from  Harry's point of view.
 
Have Ron and Hermione in a relationship and Harry ends up a third  wheel.  
Plus, again remember the story is from Harry's point of view.   A Ron/Hermione 
relationship would be mostly behind the scenes.  I feel that  if Harry comes to 
the realization that he loves anyone, it will not be till the  end of book 
seven.
 
Now a question for the group in general concerning Hermione being in a  
relationship with either Harry or Ron.  What makes one more plausible than  the 
other?  Many of the arguments I've heard against one pairing would  apply equally 
to the other pairing.  I'm not saying that Harry and Hermione  belong 
together, but I would like R/Hr shippers to explain why they feel their  relationship 
would work, but Harry and Hermione wouldn't.
