James:
Ginny is a second tier character that, even in the midst of the H/G 
"love" affair still had little air time.
Then, she has certain Molly tendencies that would have me running for 
the hills.
Then, when Harry broke up with her, she said she expected it because 
Harry would never be happy unless he was fighting Moldie. Of course, 
Harry would be happy to be just Harry and have a normal life, but 
Ginny just sees her HERO.


luirhys:
I don't think that just because Ginny said this, it makes her 
hero-obsessed. After all, DD also made this point about Harry 
wanting to finish off Voldie even if there wasn't any prophecy.

Remember that Ginny has heard of Harry since she was a child. And 
had a crush on him since he saw him in the first book. Having this 
kind of feeling for someone makes you very attuned to their habits 
and feelings. She is one of the characters who really understand 
Harry. About her "molly" tendencies, I think this endears him to 
Harry, who really didn't have any experience with parental love.
