left entirely to our imagination. But our imagination is not 
necessarily in line with JKR's intention. For example, what in HBP 
prevents me from imagining an abusive relationship between those 
two? What prevents me from imagining that Ginny is simply secretly 
feeding Love Potion to Harry? What prevents me from imagining that 
Ginny was hugely disappointed with what a romance with Harry really 
looks like, after dreaming of it for so many years, that she was 
actually relieved when Harry broke up with her, and that this is the 
true reason she let him go so easily?

those who either don't want to, can't, or don't care to, have no 
reason to agree that this romance is so beautiful. There is no canon 
either way, so nobody's right, and nobody's wrong. The romance 
between Harry and Ginny might as well not exist, it would be better 
than this undefined unknown.

in them. If I want to invent my own version of HP, I'll start writing
fanfiction. If I want to see how other fans view the H/G romance, 
I'll start reading fanfiction. But when I buy the genuine thing 
(with very real money too), I want the genuine version of the 
author. So when JKR writes that there's a romance going on between 
her hero and the girl she always destined for him, I want HER to 
tell me what's going on.
