She's older than all the other kids living at the Burrow, and doesn't really seem much of a housewife. Despite that, she sticks around feeding chickens and cooking. Do you think she gets her own room, or does she have to share one with Ginny and Hermione? (Harry, of course, gets the twins' old room.) Her future mother in law doesn't like her, talks about her behind her back, and refuses to spend time alone with her, and all her future inlaws refer to her using a childish nickname. When she tries to join in the conversation, Hermione sasses her and isn't reprimanded by the adults or thought rude. She's shut out of conversation with the family, rudely, by another guest and nobody seems to mind.
She stays there, dealing with it all, and not complaining.
Someone she knows, someone she's competed with and who saved her sister, comes to visit. When she treats him as an exciting equal, she's portrayed as shallow.
Yea, yea, ultimatly there's the BIG REVEAL where she's not really shallow and she loves Bill despite his aids... I mean, werewolfism... but Christ.
I have really shitty future in-laws who hate me for not being "good enough" or having "pure blood" (no shit, for serious, I'm a dirty dirty American) but they are at least civil to me. If they acted towards me as the Weasleys act towards Fleur, I'd firebomb the house and live in a hotel.
