Earlier this week, Cara Delevinge was the subject of an intensely awkward interview during the promotional trail for her new movie, Paper Towns.

She hit back at questions and comments branding her "irritable" and was less than impressed with the suggestion that maybe she "needed a nap".

However, she was especially irked when asked whether she had read the John Green book on which the film is based. She responded sarcastically, saying she hadn't even read the script and "just winged it".

32 Lessons The Harry Potter Books Taught Us About Love

Posted by Unknown at 8:20 PM 0 comments

The most powerful magic of all.

You won't always know The One when you meet them.

Taking the time to fall in love with someone doesn't make you love them any less. Love is about growing with someone, getting to know them and yourself. It's about becoming your own people and respecting each other for it.

Ron and Hermione were both PRETTY obnoxious at the outset of the series, and we all know James had a LONG way to go before he was worthy of Lily, and that's ok! People can surprise you, people can get better, and everybody needs a little time to find themselves

Warner Bros

But you might.

Ginny was mad about Harry from the second she saw him, but that didn't keep their relationship from deepening and becoming its own thing, unfettered by a childhood crush, as the years went on.

Some people fall in love at first sight, some people do it slowly, but what matters is keeping the commitment once you've made it.

Warner Bros

Platonic love is real.

The nonexistent love triangle that launched a thousand shipping wars proves it. Harry and Hermione were great friends without a hint or interest in romance. They loved each other, they were family, and it was beautiful. A strong, truly platonic friendship is hard to find, but ones built on mutual respect, trust, and admiration are possible.

Warner Bros

And romantic love isn't rational.

Dormant Harmony shippers MAY want to argue in the comments regarding JK Rowling's recent suggestion that maybe Harry and Hermione were more compatible than Ron and Hermione, but compatible as they were, they weren't into each other, sorry.

And the truth is, that's kind of beautiful. Compatibility is important in friendships AND romantic relationships, but just because something ticks all the boxes on paper doesn't mean it feels right in the heart.
