Every single one of them? I headdesked over the ending of that book so much. It really felt like JKR was just in a hurry to get it over with and just scribbled something out.

I'm not saying the epilogue wasn't embarrassingly cheesy (and that some of the romances were any good) but I can't expect an author who's spent a decade presenting all these characters to us to pull out new ones out of her ass and pair them up with the established characters for the sake of ~realism~.

Mostly that's my take on it. I don't mind ~forever romances~ if the intended audience is young because the tone of the work is, well, fantasy-ish, really. If I didn't get a detailed, realistic account of how a certain conflict affects people (psychological effects of war/real-life politics, etc) then I'm not gonna expect realistic romance either. It'd be tedious, to be honest.

*This doesn't mean the romance can't be well written. And god knows Makorra was not well written.

I agree with everything you just said. Just, for me, the ending was so eye-rolling and I didn't even feel most of it was necessary. It seemed like someone's early attempt at a fanfic.

Double-posting my comment, because... it really wasn't every pairing.

Endgame pairings that started in school:
- James/Lily
- Molly/Arthur
- Harry/Ginny
- Ron/Hermione

Engame pairings that didn't start in school:
- Draco/Astoria
- Neville/Hannah
- Luna/Rolf
- Percy/Audrey
- Bill/Fleur
- Tonks/Remus
- George/Angelina

There are more couples, like Lucius/Narcissa, Alice/Frank, Bellatrix/Rodolphus, Andromeda/Ted, etc, but we don't know if they got together in school or afterwards. So there are actually more couples that DIDN'T start in school. (Angelina going to the ball with Fred doesn't count. That's not dating, and he and Fred are individual people. :P)
