I think what finally made me 'come to terms' with it, as you put it, was that for the first time I thought about what Hermione would want me to do. If she knew (but I don't think she does. Anyway, I'm not going to tell her.) She's very kind. She wouldn't want a boy mooning hopelessly after her just because it makes her feel important or special. She'd want me to be happy, too.
And she's always so practical. I remember all the times we practised charms together, and she would say, 'If something's not working, don't let yourself get stuck. Try something else if you're going nowhere, or even rethink your goal.'
Realising that made the decision to leave sort of obvious then.

We have so much history with me as boot, too.
