I am with the same person I fell for in College and I wanna stay with him!!

Oh, amen to that! So am I, but that doesn't mean that most of my friends more far from the high school "love of their life". People sometimes move on and not in the same direction.

If given the easy way out in a fic, that's how I'd do it. Ron and Hermoine stayed together for a while and were happy, but things just didn't work out in the end. And if I did kill anyone off, it would be with an act of nobility.
