Do you think he ever had a lady friend ? I mean....he couldn't have stayed a virgin forever. I mean...it's not about sex but love. He had to have loved someone at some point.

I think he probably did fall in love with someone, but

Spoiler:

he was probably afraid to fall in love with anyone because of what he did to his sister. I assume that is why he never wanted children, because he knew what he could do to them and he didn't want to hurt anyone again

At least that's what I assume I think if he had had children or wife it would have been mentioned.

I think Potterpedia might inform us if he ever did have a lover.

Has it ever been confirmed if she's actually writing it? I really hope she does, it would help a lot to answer questions like this one.

Maybe he did. Lets hope he looked better as a teenager than an old man though, or there goes that idea.

I believe the word she used was "probably."

Quote:
In her first tell-all interview since the release of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” J.K. Rowling told TODAY’s Meredith Vieira she “probably will” publish a Potter encyclopedia, promising many more details about her beloved characters and the fate of the wizarding world beyond the few clues provided in the seventh book’s epilogue
http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/19935372/


Quote:
More details to come?
Rowling said she may eventually reveal more details in a Harry Potter encyclopedia, but even then, it will never be enough to satisfy the most ardent of her fans.

“I’m dealing with a level of obsession in some of my fans that will not rest until they know the middle names of Harry’s great-great-grandparents,” she said. Not that she’s discouraging the Potter devotion!

“I love it,” she said. “I’m all for that.”

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19959323/


These articles were based off of the infamous Today Show interview last July featuring interviewer Meredith Vieira.
The video should be at this link...

Really she is. I'm starting to wonder what we'd do without GinnyX.

Top this all off with the recently revealed fact that Dumbledore's gay and you've got solid evidence that he's never had a wife or children.
