Lynn,

I see your points. But you seem to forget one thing: the way Fleur is
acting with the Weasleys is simply Fleur's Way. She is not doing it to
the Weasleys in particular. She's doing it to EVERYONE. Ever since
we've known her, she's been like that. And we can guess that her own
female schoolmates didn't like her very much from the way two of them
reacted when she got nominated as champion: they burst in tears.

Yes Fleur is arrogant, haughty, insensitive, and everything you've
said. But *that's simply the way she is*, with everyone she doesn't
have a particular liking to. As you've said, she's different with
Harry, because she likes him in a personal way. And I'll bet she's
also different with Bill.

Fleur is simply one of those people who are insufferable as long as
they don't have a real private relationship with you. That's the way
she is, just like it's Luna's way to be the way she is, or like it's
Percy's way to be the way he is.

Personally, I think Fleur will change as she develops personal
relationships with each member of the Weasley family. For example, I'm
pretty sure she won't be disrespectful of Molly anymore, now that the
two women have bonded over Bill. And I'll bet half my Galleons that
the Weasleys will be surprised to discover that under the frosty
cover, there's a nice and warm human being (and, I think, an extremely
loyal one too), the one that seduced Bill.
