scalzifeedMe:
Friend: Was she kidding?
Me: No, apparently Dumbledore has this mad crush on a guy, who then turned out to be evil, and Dumbledore was slow on the uptake because when you’re infatuated, you miss details.
Friend: Like your boyfriend being completely and utterly evil.
Me: This is what I am led to understand.
actually, i find quite a few people are slow on the uptake about their love interests being evil. even hitler had a girlfriend.
No, JK Rowling said something about it at an appearance. Someone asked if Dumbledore ever knew love, and Rowling said something like, ‘well, he’s totally gay, and yes.’
