Atleast when R/Hr fight, they fight <i>back</i>

Well I guess I can see where they might be coming from, former HHR is the best thing ever fan here. Ron was mean to Hermione for whatever reasons and yes, she was to him too but as a girl being pushed around by several boys in school in my life I'd take her side any day. But that's beside the point. While I am still trying to rebuild my former Ron love, knowing everything RHR shippers do I know he'd never hurt Hermione. At least, not abuse-wise, really, that is taking a step over the line... we know Ron is the heart of the trio and well, he couldn't be if he would abuse someone. My two cents.

I think Ron's too protective of Hermione to hurt her

Ron was mean to Hermione at the beginning, but let's not forget who was meaner to her later. It was Ron that stood to Hermione in OoTP and HBP and DH when Harry had his moments. Also, bickering doesn't mean abuse, and while Ron and Hermione frighted all the time, they did it with a reason (you know - notice me!!!). Also, R/Hr both hurt each other over the years. But it was never intentionally. Plus, it was Hermione that kicked Ron's butt when he came back in DH. If Ron was abusive, he would have tried to fight back not hold her hands. If anything, i believe it's Hermione the one that would hex Ron's bits if he crosses the line. Ron wouldn't fight back even Hermione tries to kill him (which she wont, because she loves him as much).

But it was just tension between them and Hermione fired back. And besides, Harry had his moments of being cruel to her, and those moments upset her as well. The reason why she reacted more to Ron, was because she felt something for him, so her emotions were heightened around him. Besides, if Hermione was so bothered by Ron she could have just hung out with Harry when he wasn't around Ron, or hexed him. Which she did do in book 6.

I'm still not the biggest fan of the usual bickering-because-I-like-you relationship but I am obviously okay with it now or I wouldn't be here. It is overdone and a part of me didn't want it to happen again. But we can't ignore the fact RHR happened and they do love each other. And it is a good thing they are happy with each other. Guess I put too much emphasis with honesty and well, RHR weren't honest about how they felt and a bit of that bothers me. A lot of drama and whatnot. And like Emma said, if Hermione had a choice she wouldn't have picked Ron as her future husband but, you can't really help the one you love can you?

What's wrong with bickering because you like someone? It's part of classic literature and it really amps up the story. It's far more preferable then love at first sight, and star crossed lovers. Well they weren't perfect human beings with ability to read minds were they? Hermione fell for Ron but wasn't sure if he would reciprocate and tbh, he probably would have just run away up until HBP. Even then, the dolt messed things up. But anyways we are veering off topic, so lets bring it around.

It can be that I'm in one of my "realistic" mood, but I think we tell it(Emma's comment) to make it look more romantic or as an excuse, because deep down we know the reason we're with the another one.
But if it is to follow this line of thinking, neither is Hermione someone that Ron would pick for his wife, at first. Because I do think that one of the things that we learn with the growing of their relations is that they're not that different from each other. We tend to look at the both of them like total opposites, but they're not really. Almost all the differences are superficial, but it's something that should be discussed at the R/Hr thread, sorry.
Now about the main topic of the thread, I don't see Ron being abusive, specially with Hermione (that can defend herself amazingly, anyway). Of course it depends what people takes like abusive, but if we're talking about physically against a woman, people forget who are his mother and what kind of environment he grew up (just look at the characters (that we know) that become the wifes of his brothers and Ginny herself and we will see that all of them are described like strong womans at some point in the story. What I mean is, they values strong womans, not because they know their can handle their abusive side, but because they have someone strong in a female figure to look at and respect that is their mother). And Ron has a nature of protecting who he cares about, look at him and Ginny. We saw that they can argue and be really mean with each other, but he still would protect her no mater what happened previously. The girls already have gave the example of Ron protecting Hermione of Harry, but he did the same with Ginny when he got the both of them kissing, I know many people don't like that he interrupted the kiss, but he was worried about his sister, even knowing that it's Harry kissing her. His noble best friend, that was going hutting for Voldemort, the chosen-one. He protected her the way he could, not matter who it was.
Family is something that Ron respect and cares a lot and Hermione becomes his family (The Granger-Weasley one). Betraying and being anything less than caring for it, is not something that Ron would think like a possibility, ever.IMO.

There's no way Ron could be abusive! He would NEVER hurt Hermione!!! Sure, they're at each other's throats sometimes when jealous or something, but that's not abusive behavior. Ron loves Hermione just as much as she loves him.
