A rebuttal to the story "Why Ginny Weasley Was Still A Virgin When She Married Harry Potter" by 'pettybureaucrat' I found on the Simply Undeniable site. In this story, Ginny is NOT so readily accepting of Harry's cheating on her during the Second Wizarding War upon his return home and lets him -- and the others involved -- know it in no uncertain terms. (I have written the story in such a manner because I firmly believe the original story and the situations therein are very OOC.)

I have been a Potter fan from day one but just recently started writing fic for it. I presently have roughly thirty stories completed, at least four of them novel-length, and about eleven (yes, eleven) WIPs. I'm most into the canon pairings of Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione, but if a story is written well enough, I'll check out Harry/Draco, Draco/Hermione and even  a threesome with Harry, Draco and Ginny.

Sorry to review this late but I had a lot of work lately and there isn't enough hours in a day to do everything ;)I'm glad you updated this fic and Ginny should play the jealousy card more often. After all Harry deserves it to understand what it feels like.

I do hope there won't be any more troubles for these two 'til the wedding.

The more of this I read, the more I hope to see Ginny ditch Harry at the altar. Even though Romilda tricked him, there's still an underlying sense that Harry doesn't have any respect for Ginny. Yes he fancies her, but he apparently fancies the entire female half of the wizarding world.Any marriage which begins like this is doomed to be a loveless shell - Harry, who it appears can't keep it in his trousers, is held to ransom by an Unbreakable Vow, and he's going to resent that eventually, no matter that it was his own actions which forced Ginny to make him take it.

This is going too smoothly. I suspect something bad is going to happen. Please keep up the good work.

I'm glad they finally make up. I'm usually not so much fond of GW/HP but I quite like this one. It's not the kind of sugar sweet thing I hate while reading about that particular pairing (of course when it's SS/HG, I'm not bothered at all ). Anyway, I enjoy your story very much.

I never have been in that situation (at least as far as I know) and I really don't know what I would do. Loosing such a friendship isn't easy but forgetting isn't either. It will sound selfish but better her than me.

As much as I looked forward for your update, just as much am I dissepointed. Ginnys ressistance didn't last even 3 chapters, not to mention she for some reason ask Harry to forgive her? Ginny has never been one of my favourite characters, but at the beginning of this story I really thougth that this was a Ginny I could like reading about. I realise I was wrong, this Ginny is patetic. She gets what she deserves I guess, getting Harry is important enough to overlook the fact that he would more than likely fuck the next willing woman if he feels "stressed". Then again, her family defends him too, he is the famous Boy-who-lived after all and money and fame have always made it easy to overlook some "minor" flaws in the character. I guess love, honour and respect doesn't necessary have to be on the top of the list for making this a happy reunion.

After reading the story you mentioned in your summary, I admit that I came away also feeling as though Ginny would not have been forgiving of this, at least not immediately.  No matter that they had broken off their relationship for the time being, it was still understood that they would be back together.  Here Ginny was, saving herself for her man... but he didn't have the respect for her to do the same regardless of the circumstances.  No self-respecting girl would immediately forgive him for that. (Underlined in case young girls are reading this.)Unfortunately, there IS a double standard in our society.  Men want their wives to be virginal when they marry them, yet men don't give that much importance to their own virginity.  Okay, I'm generalizing here, because I know there are guys who save themselves for marriage.  But those who don't find this important ... I think they use any excuse to justify their rampant sexual behavior.It's sad Harry doesn't have higher standards.  Regardless of the circumstances, of the reasons why he did this (the stress of war, which has to be extreme and probably would result in some rather crazy and out-of-character behavior), ultimately, I think that as soon as his infidelity went beyond a one-time moment of insanity, he might as well have told Ginny she wasn't worth much to him.

Ugh. I kind of wanted to smack Hermione across the head. Multiple times. I agree with this story. If I was Ginny, I wouldn't be able to get those other women out of my mind--especially Harry's so-called 'sister'. I'd always be wondering and I don't believe that's a good start to any relationship, much less an engagement. Anyway. Enough about me. This story was really wonderful, and not like the usual where Ginny takes him back again and again because it 'twu luv'. A wonderful read.-- Jess

I'm genuinely surprise to discover a good HP/GW story. Not the usual kind and that's why I like it. Hope for more soon.

With all my hart I really, truly, wish that you will let Ginny find someone else to love and who will love and respect her. Harry hasn't cheated once and with one girl, which would have been bad enough, but repeatidly with several girls, girls she will have to relate to for the rest of her life. It can not be blamed on the war, on hormones or anything else than a total lack of respect and quite frankly, no true love!!! I have not an iota of pity for Harry, and quite frankly, he obviously feels most sorry for himself since she won't easily forgive him and jump into his arms. Ginny will never be able to trust him, (or any of her so-called friends who betrayed her), if not a war he would probably find something else to justify his cheating. Please say you will let Ginny ditch him? He doesn't deserve to put a hand on her body, not to mention have sex with her and she deserves sooooo much better than him!!!!

This is too easy. Something is going to happen, something bad or unexpected.
Anyway I'm glad you updated.
