Several characters in the Harry Potter series had a crush on Ron Weasley. Here are some of the most notable:
Lavender Brown:
- Lavender was Ron's girlfriend for a period of time in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
- She was very affectionate and openly displayed her feelings for him.
- However, their relationship was short-lived and ultimately ended due to Ron's feelings for Hermione.
Hermione Granger:
- Hermione had a crush on Ron throughout the series, though it took her a while to admit it.
- Her feelings were evident in her actions, such as her jealousy of Lavender and her attempts to help Ron with his self-esteem.
- In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, they finally confessed their feelings and began dating.
Romilda Vane:
- Romilda Vane was a student at Hogwarts who sent Ron a love potion-laced chocolate in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
- While Ron did not know about the love potion, he was initially flattered by her attention.
- However, he ultimately rejected her advances, as he was already interested in Lavender at the time.
Other Potential Crushes:
- There were also hints of other characters having a crush on Ron, though these were not explicitly stated.
- For example, some fans believe that Luna Lovegood may have had a crush on Ron, based on their interactions in the books.
- It's also possible that other female characters at Hogwarts, such as Padma Patil, may have been attracted to him.
While Ron may have been oblivious to some of these crushes, his popularity and charm made him a desirable character for several girls at Hogwarts.
