Ron Weasley is Harry Potter's best friend. He is a frequent target of harassment by Draco Malfoy. He is a very loyal boy, who cares a great deal about his family and his friends. Being the sixth child in a long line of Weasley achievers, Ron, in his first years at school, felt a great deal of pressure to live up to the expectations. As he grew up however, that pressure seemed to have let up a little, though it is still evident in his desperate desire to hold his own when he makes the Quidditch team in his fifth year.

Ron is also very protective of his younger sister Ginny and is always watching out for what she is doing and who she is doing it with.

Ron developed feelings for his longtime friend Hermione Granger but was quite awkward about it. In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, in seemingly an attempt to prove a point, and possibly to make Hermione jealous, Ron dates Lavender Brown. The relationship lasted through Christmas break, but fell apart after that.
