"Yeah," he replied miserably. It didn't make sense. Ted hated intolerance. Hated it. And yet he had a stupid crush on a girl from the most infamously purist family in the Wizarding world. Talk about irony. She'd probably sooner spit on him than look at him.
"Stupid, right? I mean, she's a Black, and I'm a Muggleborn. Way to go, Ted, you sure can pick them," he said sarcastically. There were so many nicer, less intimidating girls that he could go out with, that probably would've loved to go out with him. He wasn't unpopular with the ladies...he was just terribly awkward around them.
