Something I know has been raised about H/G in past discussions (but not AFAIK in
the past couple of days) is that she is a Weasley, and that in itself is an attraction to
Harry.
My brother actually married one of my best friends from school. He started hanging
around whenever she came over when he was 14. I don't mean to imply that they
were not truly in love when I say that her family was pretty dysfunctional in many
ways (which I do not have permission to reveal) and that being part of our loving and
sharing family - being a daughter in our household - was a big attraction for her.
For Harry, for whom The Burrow is the best home he has ever come across, and the
Weasleys the epitome of families, a Weasley girl will definitely have added attractions.
I don't find her obnoxious at all - in fact I am puzzled that so many people on the list
find so many characters obnoxious. What - we're all perfect? I find very few
characters obnoxious, as JKR has generally left enough clues for us to understand
what insecurities or motives underly annoying behaviour. Perhaps you can rank me
with Lupin, as someone who finds it difficult to hate, preferring to try to understand.
