Reasons Harry Potter Should Have Ended Up With Cho Chang Rather Than Ginny Weasley

-

 

HARRY HAD FEELINGS FOR HER EARLY ON


While Ginny might have been in Harry’s orbit from the beginning because she was Ron’s sister, he never really saw her as more than that until much later on. With Cho, on the other hand, Harry had a crush on her pretty much from the moment he saw her. While having a crush doesn’t necessarily make two people a good match, it does indicate that Harry had a natural attraction to Cho and was paying attention to her from the get-go.


THEY HAD A CONNECTION BECAUSE OF SHARED TRAUMA


While Harry wasn’t that good at handling it, the fact is that Harry and Cho had both been through almost the same trauma after the death of Cedric Diggory. While Harry didn’t really know how to process this outwardly, Cho did. Harry definitely didn’t react to any of this very well, but in many ways, Cho could have been a good person for him to work out some of his trauma with. He also could have had the potential to help her deal with what happened to Cedric.

CHO WOULD HAVE CHALLENGED HARRY TO BREAK OUT OF HIS COMFORT ZONE


While there’s definitely something to be said about Harry finally finding a family, the fact is that he also doesn't really break out of his comfort zone. He seems to spend most of his life with Ron, Hermione, and the Weasleys...and that’s about it. Having someone who would push him to get to know new people and be a little less insular would also be a positive thing. In this way, Cho definitely would have been a positive person in Harry’s life and could have introduced him to new horizons.

HARRY’S CRUSH ON GINNY SEEMED TO COME OUT OF NOWHERE


While the relationship between Harry and Cho was somewhat built up, the one between Harry and Ginny wasn’t so much. Harry’s internal thoughts reflected he had budding feelings for Cho starting in his third year, and then things progressed over the next couple of years. On the flip side, Harry never really showed any romantic interest in Ginny at all until his sixth year, and even then it wasn't planned out or introduced in a gradual way.

HARRY BASICALLY LEFT GINNY BEHIND MULTIPLE TIMES


One of the things that don't make a lot of sense about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is that Ginny isn’t able to come along with the trio. This means that Harry basically breaks up with her not once but twice. She definitely is more of an interesting character than this, and this doesn’t really indicate them having an inseparable relationship.

What If Bella Was On Her Period On The First Day When She Met Edward?

I know this is a bit creepy subject. Bella spends almost every day with Edward since they started dating. So, it's natural that he would definitely be with her on 'those days' too. But why didn't Edward go crazy after smelling the open blood? Twilight's author, Stephenie Meyer herself answered this question in an interview for Twilight Lexicon.  According to her, menstrual blood does not have the same potency as "fresh" blood and Edward is (thusly) able to control himself better.  Meyer quoted,  " Edward can’t be around Bella when she’s bleeding without being in intense temptation–to the point of pain. A few drops would only make it worse. Like a few drops of water when you’ve been wandering in the desert for days… You’d totally suck down the whole gallon of Evian.  Several girls wanted to know  if Edward would have a more difficult time being around Bella when she’s having her period . The answer is y es, a little bit, but he would never say anything...

Will Harry And Cho End Up Together In The Alternate Timeline? Cho Chang In The Alternate Timeline Of The Cursed Child Play

  I have a headcanon about Cho Chang in the Cursed Child play/book. I firmly believe that Cho ended up with Harry in the alternate timeline. Let us consider that Cedric went to the Yule ball with Cho Chang, despite his defeat in the first task in the alternate timeline. Then they eventually would have started dating, because Cho is very kind-hearted and will never consider the fact that he lost in the first task in their relationship. She even would have supported Cedric to perform well in the second task. But he would have become very mortified when he lost the second task with great humiliation because of Albus and Scorpius. Cho definitely would have tried to calm him down. Exhausted by the worst degradation of his dignity, he would have become rude and hostile towards everyone, including Cho. But Cho will understand his state of mind and will try to settle Cedric down. But Cedric would have ultimately humiliated Cho (as in the case of Lily and Snape) and would have joined the de...
