OBHWF is the[sic] so teeth rotting ly[sic] sweet that it burns my skin.

Sigh. When Ginny had her crush on Harry, all you OBHWF fans reckoned that proved that they would soon be together; but now that Ginny is clearly over Harry and is moving on, you're using the exact opposite situation to claim the same thing!

Sadly for you & other OBHWF fans, Ginny is now over Harry, and is on her second boyfriend, while Luna Lovegood has the hots for Ron.

Because JKR ships OBHWF that's why. The way Hermione has been written shows us she's much more and[sic] equal and compatible with Harry though.

But we had to settle for OBHWF and some of us are DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THAT!!!!!

Those of us who didn't want OBHWF felt that Rowling was making a mistake, not that she was being misleading.
