H/G was a good ship from the start lol
i just hope in the next book they get back together

If Harry cares only for Ginny,he wouldn't feel s jealous when he saw her snogging Dean or always dreamt of her in his dreams..He wouldn't snog her and in front of all the Gryffindores. He wouldn't leave her to protect her, he wouldn't be so happy when he was with her, he wouldn't smell her when he was standing in front of the love potion. Harry loves Ginny and Jo herself said that in her interview after the book had been released.

^That is so true! People who say that he doesn't love her are not understanding his feelings in HBP, he definately loves her

I agree, he has made a huge mistake and i want to see Harry show some regret!

Don't get me wrong I think what Harry did was noble, if a little naive. He's too cute trying to protect Ginny that way ... but Draco already knows and that can only bode trouble. I mean he can tell Voldemort about her as a way to get his life spared and yada yada yada ... so there's some sense to Harry's actions but there's not. With her closer to him he could only protect her better, and besides which you can't switch off love, he's still going to think about her hunting horcruxes ...

But yeah, he should cry a little and feel the pain of his mistake. How long has Ginny been waiting and she's going to wait more ... she's soo sweet, but c'mon ... poor Ginny ... I think Harry should suffer a little. Maybe she should get back with Michael ... not Dean because I ship him with someone else but ... someone to make Harry a bit ... jealous again.

I think that even though Harry/Ginny is a pretty good ship, they might fight a bit, since they have different personalities. However, they do look cute together and Ginny has liked him for quiet a while, but she has dated a couple of other boys. Finally, my main ship will always be Harry/Hermione.

Aww now I want to hear about your first love...and no I'm not trying to freak you out.

GAH I don't want to be in love then cause the strongest like I had was the worst time of my life, cause of the whole alienation process and then the major teasing from friends, and then there was the whole drama where the dude had strong like for the bestest best friend I've ever had >.< Me and Pain have never exactly done well with each other. It's probably because a)I have a low pain threshold b)I always let it control me

ON TO THE ON-TOPIC STUFF:
Harry did choose Ginny. Harry is also a seventeen year old/sixteen year old boy. Harry is a wizard but that doesn't exactly change the way his hormones work.

In conclusion, well....draw the conclusion yourselves. I don't believe in 'love' that happens when you're seventeen. Call me cynical and hypocritical (I LOVE L/J) I just can't see it happening for Harry or any of the other people. In fact sometimes I prefer reading stories about after Hogwarts rather than the stories that occur during the Hogwarts years. (This is probably the inner brownie in me)

Did I make sense at all? Sorry if I ended up confusing someone.

It's long and complicated and not allowed on SS you see it involves the war, and *sniffles* it was a love triangle and ... *sniffles* it was never meant to be ...

You're young yet dear *pets* when you get to be as old as me *coughsdust* and your heart's as riddled with love's holes (the one's left by Cupid's arrow) then you can put it away and never feel love again ... *Dies alone for dramatic effect* but until then ... go out and pretend your the star of General Hospital ... its dramaloves.

I suppose we better or we'll get in trouble ... LOL I always wanted a column, Dear Ottery ... all about love and shippyness ... And Harry did indeed choose to be with Ginny, and while he is young he has experienced a lot in that time and I think his hormones are calming down, don't you? He knows what his destiny is and he means to follow it, which is why I think his choice of Ginny is surefire and not just ... oh I need a girlfriend before I die.

I think Harry sincerely loves her, and believing he might die he's pretty clear about what his choice is ... and his choice was to love her, then to leave her to protect her. Which is not unlike Clark and Lana on Smallville but we know how well that turned out didn't it? *Fires the cannons and cries for brokenhearts♥ everywhere*

Harry will come back for Ginny ... he will. *sniffles* He has to.

I believe that love is funny and you can sit here and say, this will never work, or it never happens and somewhere out there God is laughing and somewhere else what we say can't be or won't work is working really well. LOL Life's funny too. But this is fiction a point which escapes people too easily ... and I don't see why Harry/Ginny can't be ... in the epilogue Harry and Ginny can be an old married couple sitting on a front porch at the Burrow remembering the old days ... *shrugs*

Harry/Ginny is the best ship *fires the cannons* and they never fight. Seriously, you can't find an argument in canon at all. Harry might say something mean and angry but Ginny shuts him up pretty quickly. That does not constitute an argument ... now Ron and Hermione ... well that one's easy

And Ginny's being popular only means she can be more sure that Harry is the one for her. *Sighs romantically*

I want Ginny to run off with Draco to make him jealous ... it would serve Harry right for being ... I'm sorry I love Harry but really ... how could you ... Bad Harry, bad Harry, no treat for you ... *scolds Harry*

I know what he did, he did because he thought it was best, and it's unselfish and warm and kind ... but ... seriously ... someone slap the self-sacrificing martyr out of him ... it's going to end up getting him killed and he's the only one who can save the wizarding world. *slaps Harry*

And somewhere out there Ginny is still in love with you ...

They might fight when Ginny goes after Harry although he asked her not to do so then Harry I think might be angry or shout cause he don't want her to be harmed and he asked her not to do so and I see Ginny will not agree to that and will tell him that she won't be left behind and..so on.
I also think the same as you. I don't believe much in love at that early edge but This is a stroy and Jo want to add some love in there because this what happen between teens and that what teens want to read about too. Also, I think Harry is special cause he didn't find love when he was young and he has a different character from any boy in the story so, I think he found his equal Ginny and he won't find any one like her who knows how to deal with his character and his fame

I've been reading Half Blood Prince since this summer ... my average speed is two pages per month what I'm not slow it's schoolwork gets in the way meanies. Anyways, so I was reading the Harry/Ginny kiss and the stuff leading up to it ... ZOMG!

First, Jo wasn't exactly very subtle, cuz before it Harry thinks he wishes Gryffindor could win so that they could have a party and he can like talk to Ginny alone without Ron, before that he's trying to get Ginny alone but Ron's always around *smoochies Ron* stupid Harry since when was that ever a problem?

Anyways, so Harry's brain is fighting over wether he should tell Ron first (which he should have ... evil Harry and then you almost kill Draco with Sectumsempra) but anyways he doesn't instead he gets detention and then bam Gryffindor won and Ron's got the cup and all Harry can think to do is kiss Ginny ... *Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee* nothing wrong with that ... LOL for the record though ... *fires teh cannons* it was Ginny who ran over and put her arms around him and for the H/Hr shippers who will never get it ...

Harry was very happy when Ginny came to his defense against Hermione (in spite of the fact that he was not playing in the final match because of detention, which had bummed him seriously) so in conclusion.

Harry loves Ginny (even Romilda was making hateful looks and then asking Ginny if Harry had a tatoo of a hippogryff on his chest) and Ginny loves Harry which we have always known and they love each other and they happily ever after ...

Sort of ... there's still that bump about book 7 and killing Voldemort to get over

Oh, and Jo I'm angry ... H/G only lasts a few chapters towards the end of the book ... *Ottery contemplates skipping the breakup* I could just pretend it never happened ...

"After all ... tomorrow is ... another day ..." *cues GwtW theme*

I was annoyed cause Jo had made H/G moments so few and at the end and then they parted with out a small hope of being together again in book 7. So, we won't read their moments until ( as i wish they be together ) the end of the book. I was waiting for this ship from book 2 and I bore to read Harry / Cho thing then at the end only some glimpses.

You are so right! If voldemort knows ( and i think he will ) from Snape or from Malfoy or from any one. He won't care if Harry's still with her or not. He knew that Harry had a realtionship with her so she is important and he will try to use it to make Harry surrenders. Any way, Harry was stupid in this. May be he doesn't want Ginny to go with him because he knew that she will go if he is still his girlfriend but he accepted when Ron and Hermione insisted!!!! I really hope they come back together and share some moments ( I hope they won't die )

No matter what they are good togetjer for good

yeah i agree! i hope they come back together (all four of them) and live long happy lifes! but sadly.. i dont know if thats actually gonna happen.. i pray it does!

I also hope they get back together and share some memorized together. They are like so perfect for each other and so cute togher. I hope they live long lives togher.
