So, if you ask me, I think Harry forgave Ron **really** fast. 
 JMO.


Montavilla47:
I understand what you are saying and I agree with you to a
certain extent.  But I feel like both Ron and Harry were being
jerks for several weeks.  Ron was the first one to be a jerk.
But their breach lasted a lot longer than it would have if 
Harry had absorbed what Hermione said about Ron being 
jealous and dealt with that, instead of staying angry about
it.

Ron could have swallowed his pride and begged forgiveness
weeks before the first task.  But if he honestly thought that
Harry had put his name in the goblet, why should he?  He 
was still worried enough about Harry that he went looking
for him when Harry was missing from bed.  In return, 
Harry chucked a badge at him.  I'm not sure you get much
jerkier than throwing a sharp metal object at someone's
head.
