Harry Potter: Ginny x Harry


...I just realized something.

I subconsciously don't ship Harry with Ginny.

I was rereading the previous fanfic recommendations and went to my profile to see the fanfics I chose from the Harry Potter as favorites and alerts... Only in alert, there is only one that has Ginny X Harry and it's infidelity! Harry cheated on her with someone else! He loves her but not the extent of romance you expect. And it's yaoi too!

No, I won't tell you the title of such story.

Even though this couple doesn't have much development other than its private moments between the two, I acknowledge Rowling's wishes they are soulmates even though I dislike the soulmates part. They spent so few screen time together both in the book and the film. Still would choose Harry Potter over Frozen any time of the day..

The two are compatible, alright. Only if Ginny got the development she deserved and Harry actually fall in love with her instead of obsessing over her and seeing her as a way of being part of the Weasley Family subconsciously. I love the Weasley clan with all my heart but I feel that Harry doesn't have to marry into them because he's already part of their family. Hell even in DH, there were textual evidence that he's still uncomfortable with her. Neville and Luna from her year got loads of development and I felt Harry only feel for her this because she reminds him so much of Cho Chang. Remember that Cho Chang and Harry won't be happy in the long run, I feel that Hinny would be the same. I don't think they're equals as well since partners should be treated with respect and love and communication, knowing each other to the T and I feel Harry only love Ginny because he reminds her so much of Cho and so much of the Burrow, a safe haven for him.

I still can't see them together. Heck in my favorites, there is Hermione and Harry but no Ginny x Harry (okay, maybe there's one but it's not the focus of the story but rather the love of his friends will suffer with him).

Then again, I might like CCH because the reflection of Ginny with Harry!Mirror seems like how I always saw the couple. Just an innocent crush. A mirror reflection of Mirror's love for Touya.

Aside from that, I think Fei Lee from CCH is an equal for him. Not only she and he respected each other (even though they would not admit it), they are treated as equals. Not only that she actually got him out of his funk of losing the Nimbus 2000. They communicate well through the eyes for the god's sake, thinking alike and I highly doubt that being with each other make them uncomfortable. They showed from time to time they are comfortable in close proximity and it's because of their rivalry for the Clow Cards make them nasty towards each other. Even then, they don't hate each other as much as the other claimed. They made it clear that the shouting was just an outlet and many times they had proven that.
