Casmir:
I am not a shipper at all.  I don't care who ends up where.  Now with 
that in mind, I think there are some other clues being overlooked. 

Look how Hermione reacted to Harry being better at potions.  She 
NEEDS to excel.  Her very self esteem depends on that.  We know Harry 
is only going to get better and stronger, which will be threatening 
to Hermiones ego if they were in an intimate relationship, she would 
always be competing/feeling bad about herself.

Ron on the other hand is no competition at all, and in fact makes her 
feel needed.  And he is perfectly fine to be taken care of and not do 
much work.

Also, Harry and Ginny seem to both require a certain amount of 
personal freedom.  Since they both require it, they seem to 
understand each other's need for it and back off.

Tonks/Lupin blew me out of the water.  I have never seen them 
interact really so I didn't see it coming, nor understand their bond, 
yet.

I love Luna!  She is so entertaining!
