Of the two of them, it was Hermione who realized she liked Ron first as she dropped heavy hints in
According to Mental Floss, Rowling said that Hermione and Ron are equally matched and good for each other because of their personalities. She said, “[They] are drawn to each other because they balance each other out.
From even the earlier films, we all knew Hermione Granger was meant for Ron Weasley. But before their ultimate expression of love in the final film, Hermione went to the Yule Ball with one of the Triwizard Tournament's champions, Viktor Krum (Stanislav Ianevski), in Goblet of Fire.
In an interview conducted by Emma Watson in 2014, the author told the actress that she put Ron and Hermione together because she wanted to see them together, but that in many ways Harry and Hermione would have been the better fit. "I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment," Rowling said.
Hermione did not like Harry. She loved him. But not in a romantic way. The only two people she ever had a thing for, romantically, were Viktor Krun and Ronald Weasley.
Though Hermione and Ron do end up together at the end of the HP Saga, the acclaimed author has said in several interviews that she considered having Hermione and Draco end up together in the end. Rowling even suggested that Draco bullying Hermione was like adolescent hair pulling on the playground.
J.K. Rowling Says Hermione Should Have Ended Up With Harry Potter, Not Ron. Well, everything you thought you knew about love is a lie. Turns out J.K. Rowling thinks she made a huge mistake by pairing Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter novels.
Hermione, apart from being in love with the man who abandoned them, felt like she had failed in her determination to keep them all friends. On top of that due to leaving unceremoniously, Ron, Hermione believed, wasn't coming back as the chances were that he wasn't going to be able to come back even if he wanted to.
Ron never apologized openly by saying “sorry". Since the books are Harry's pov, we don't have many apology moments in the books. Even in Gof, when Ron hurt her, it is not outright stated that he apologized. They were simply being civil to each other the next day.
I decided to do some digging in the books to make out the timeline on when Ron left Harry and Hermione in Deathly Hallows. It was mid October at bare minimum when he left them. We know this, because of Dirk Cresswell.
Unfortunately for Ginny, Harry ends their relationship to protect her from Voldemort at the end of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. They continue to love each other, despite being separated, and Harry finds solace in studying the Marauder's Map to feel a connection to her at Hogwarts.
Ron and Hermione's first kiss is an iconic moment in the Harry Potter movies, but its depiction in the books is far superior. One of the most memorable first kisses in movie history belongs to Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley of the Harry Potter series.
Ron first began showing signs of romantic interest in Hermione in their second year; he was irritated by her crush on Professor Gilderoy Lockhart, became so angry that Draco Malfoy called her a "Mudblood" that he tried to hex him, and was even more upset than Harry when she became one of the victims of the basilisk.
“I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment. That's how it was conceived, really,” Rowling says in the interview. “For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron.”
Remember, Dumbledore knows about the power of love. The writers merely threw it in as a way of confirming Harry and Hermione are merely friends, a crude way of beginning the courting process between Ron and Hermione, and also Harry and Ginny.
That other time he made Hermione cry
Before the Yule Ball: The first was Ron realising that he didn't have a date for the Yule Ball, the school dance that celebrates the Triwizard Tournament.
Regardless of his own feelings for Hermione, Ron is also petrified that if Harry and Hermione (the people he cares most about) get together, he will be left with nothing. This causes him to stop trusting them, and this tears their little group apart again. In his anger, Ron decides to leave Harry.
At the ball, Harry and Parvati are seated at the head table with the other champions, including Cedric and Cho, as well as Krum and a beautiful girl who turns out to be Hermione. Ron, who has annoyed his date by staring glumly at Hermione all night, accuses Hermione of fraternizing with the enemy.
If Harry had not met Ron at King's Cross Station then they would not have sat together on the Hogwarts Express, they would never have bonded over sweets, and Ron would never have taken out his wand and caught the attention of Hermione Granger, one of the most important figures in the Harry Potter series.
Ron Bullied Hermione
Hermione, in fact, was bullied by Ron in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Before the trio fights the troll together, Hermione overhears Ron making fun of her. Why is he making fun of her? Because she was better than him in charms class.
He became bitter towards Harry when he was selected for the Triwizard Tournament and was rude to Hermione at the Yule Ball. His behaviour sprang from his insecurities, which hindered him in other ways.
Luna Lovegood is certainly an example of someone Ron should have been with. A lovely, interesting, funny, warm and kind-hearted person who would provide Ron with basically no stress.
That night, Harry, Ron, and Hermione speculate on whether Malfoy is the Heir of Slytherin, and Hermione suggests that they could find out by making a Polyjuice potion, thus turning themselves into Slytherins and eavesdropping on Malfoy in their House common room.
Though Harry encountered many opportunities that deemed Avada Kedavra necessary, it remains as one of the Unforgivable Curses Harry Potter never cast. For one, he viewed the spell as an immoral practice commonly used by users of the Dark Arts.
