Interesting how two people can read the same book and have totally  different 
opinions.  To me it seems Ron has done most of the stomping  (Especially in 
HBP) and I can't figure out why Hermione wants him.

But then I've never been a believer in the theory that people that fight  all 
the time actually like each other or that people that are total opposites  
attract.

I don't fight with people I like and I prefer to spend my time with someone  
that shares the same interests.  You and JKR might think they are a great  
match, but I doubt many marriage councilors would agree.


  Joe: I doubt seriously that any marriage councilors would be able to take a discussion about the relationship between two 16/17 year olds very seriously. Honestly none of the Hogwarts kids should be close to getting married to anyone. I think this is a by product of shipping.
   
  That said though, I married someone I can have a good heated discussion with. Someone with firey opinions who isn't afraid to disagree with me. Honestly I can't imagine anything more boring than spending the rest of my life with someone who thinks the same things I do and does all the things I do. Sounds very, very Narcissistic and a bit like emotional self-pleasuring. 
   
  The truth is that all sorts of good relationships happen and there are times when people outside that relationship don't understand it. Let's be honest here, no matter what shipping choice JKR made there would be people who didn't like and it and thought it was all wrong.
   
  Really though we see what happen through Harry's eyes so we have no idea how Ron and Hermione(or anyone else) feel about each other. I feel pretty uncomfortable though saying I know more about how someone should feel about another person even if both are fictional.
