So I was just re reading JKR's quotes at Madam Scoop on the topic of
Snape and it occured to me that maybe it is Petunia instead of Lily
that was in love with Snape.  It would explain why Petunia would hate
both the magic and the boy that broke her heart as well as the reasons
for disliking James Potter et al.  Lily would be kind to her sister's
boyfriend.  Dumbledore calls Petunia by her first name.  The only
people he does this with are people he knew as students.  Since we know
Petunia is not a witch he must have known her at least as a child to
use her given name.  He is obsessively old world in that regard.
Petunia shares Snape's close feelings for Harry as well.  The question
as to how they would ever have met well I haven't a clue.  However I
also haven't a clue why Dumbledore would have met her and known her
early and well enough to call her Petunia and yet he does.
