I don't think any of us who were disappointed in H/G romance want Jo 
to write it as a romance novel.  My problem comes in Jo telling us at 
the end (with the Spiderman break-up) that Harry and Ginny have this 
deep relationship or love and that's the first we realize it.  Would 
it really be asking for too much to have ONE scene where we see Harry 
and Ginny connect on an emotional level?  

Physical attraction is an important aspect in relationships, but if 
we're to believe in this soul-mate senario, give us one heart to heart!
