I mean... it's not entirely likely. But it's possible... isn't it?

Hints: Luna's prolonged laugh at Ron's joke, she looking at Ron as though he's a mildly interesting TV programme though he's rude to her, she singing "Weasley is our King" to herself... etc.

I could see where people would get that...but I dunno. She also remembered that he went to the Yule Ball with Padma Patil. Maybe she payed extra attention to Ron because she'd heard about him a lot from Ginny.

I definitely absolutely without a doubt think she had a crush on Ron. Had. I think she's over him by the end of OotP because she notices how mean he is. She tends to not grasp reality too well, but this she notices and that is meaningful.

I don't think so because she says that Ron is mean sometimes. I can't remember the exact words - something like this:

"He does come up with funny things doesn't he? But he can be mean, I noticed that last year"

I doubt Luna has a crush on him..

ALSO, Just because someone is good friends with someone, doesn't mean they fancy them. ^_^

No, I suppose she won't, 'cause she's Luna Lovegood.

OotP Ch 10; pg 189 (US ed)

"You went to the Yule Ball with Padma Patil," said a vague voice.

Everyone turned to look at Luna Lovegood, who was gazing unblinkingly at Ron over the top of The Quibbler. He swallowed his mouthful of frog.

"Yeah, I know I did," he said, looking mildly surprised.

"She didn't enjoy it very much," Luna informed him. "She doesn't think you treated her very well, because you wouldn't dance with her. I don't think I would have minded," she added thoughtfully, "I don't like dancing very much."


She seemed to remember very clearly who Ron took to the dance and what happened at it. She musthave heard the story from being in Ravenclaw with Padma. Harry didn't dance with his date, either, but made no mention of that.

******

Later on he makes fun of Goyle, which makes Luna laugh... harder and much louder than the others.

OotP Ch 10; pg 190 (US ed)
"That was funny!"
Her prominent eyes swam with tears as she gasped for breath, staring at Ron. Utterly nonplussed, he looked around at the others, who were now laughing at the expression on Ron's face and at the ludicrously prolonged laughter of Luna Lovegood, who was rocking backwards and forwards, clutching her sides.
"Are you taking the mickey?" said Ron, frowning at her.
"Baboon's … backside!" she choked, holding her ribs.

There is the question of whether or not she was taking the mickey out of Ron. Like, her laughing hard was to show him that it wasn't that funny. But I'm not sure.

******

OotP ch 11; pg 200-201 (US ed)
"Luna did not seem perturbed by Ron's rudeness; on the contrary, she simply watched him for a while as though he were a mildly interesting television program."

******

OotP Ch 19; pg 403 (US ed)
"It's good, isn't it?" said Luna happily. "I wanted to have it chewing up a serpent, to represent Slytherin, you know, but there wasn't time. Anyway … good luck, Ronald!"

Notice how she does not wish Harry good luck.

******

OotP Ch 25; pg 566 (US ed)
"Rita stared at her. So did Harry. Luna, on the other hand, sang, Weasley is Our King: dreamily under her breath..."

******

She makes a comment later on to Harry about how Ron can be mean. (In HBP, I think) It was funny when he made fun of Goyle, but when she caught on to the fact that he was also teasing her it stopped being funny... and started being hurtful. She got over her crush.

I don't think so. This is not Luna. She's reli laughing hard 'cause she found it extremely funny, and she didn't mind showing her feeling however odd it may look to others.
And appreciate the detailed list of evidence. Cool

I agree with GinnyX here. When I read OotP I noticed it a little bit, but I think it was just there to show how oblivious Ron can be to girls. He didn't notice it at all.

When I read ootp I was 100% sure that Luna had a crush on ron, but I think she was over it by hbp. She noticed that ron had no interest in her and gave up on him

I did think that she had a crush on Ron on OotP.
She does notice and remember the little things Ron did just like a person who fancies someone does.
But by HBP, it was gone.

I never really noticed it before, but I think that GinnyX has some really good support for the pairing. Of course, it could all be counted as some of Luna's oddities, but the Ron/Luna pairing definitely has some merit to it. Great research, btw.

I think it's definitely possible, likely actually. But if she does like him he doesn't like her back... Poor Luna. I see it as a definite possibility though, all her actions around him and stuff make sense. Good job of bringing up the topic.

That would be possible. I think she might hook up with Harry though.
