Best Answer

Snape and Lily didn't marry for a few reasons. Firstly, Snape's interest in the dark arts repulsed Lily. She wanted no part of that. Secondly, their friendship ended when Severus called Lily a 'mudblood' while James Potter was bullying him. It was Severus' worst memory, and he instantly regretted doing this. He tried repeatedly to apologize, but Lily would hear none of it. Later she began to date James. Rowling has stated that, had Severus given up his love of the dark arts, that Lily may well have fallen in love with him.

Is Harry Potter related to Severus Snape?

Not that we're aware, but it's not completely impossible because a large portion of the wizarding world is interbred and therefore related, since the population is so low. For instance, Harry shares blood with Malfoy, Sirius, and the Weasleys, as well as (very distantly) Tom Riddle/Voldemort (both are descended from two of the brothers in 'The Tale of Three Brothers', since the ring/stone and invisibility cloak are passed down as heirlooms through the Gaunt and Potter families.


Why does Snape kills Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix?

He uses the Killing Curse " Avada Kadavra" when Draco won't kill DumbledoreSnape had to. And for a good reason. So, recap. Harry and Dumbledore found the horcrux, but to do so, Dumbledore had to drink the poisonous liquid. The liquid was part of "The dark lord's" soul. And so, as long as the liquid was in Dumbledore, Voldemort was still living. So, to kill him, Snape had to kill Dumbledore.-PJ1120

Why didnt Voldemort's spells bind if he was the greatest dark wizard?

Voldemorts spells didn't work on the other children because Harry was willing to die for them. Even if he didn't die he meant to so it was like Harry's mother dieing for him. Voldemorts spells couldn't get passed because voldemort cant stand love. Dumbledore always said " love is the most powerful magic ".

Did Severus Snape betray Albus Dumbledore?

Answer 1Snape was very guarded about his past. We only got the occasional brief glimpse of what his home life may have been like. We are given the impression that Tobias was not very kind and understanding to Snape all the same.Answer 2When Harry accidentally breaks into Snape's mind in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and sees some of Snape's childhood memories, one of the memories he sees is Snape's dad yelling at Snape's "cowering" mother (USA Scholastic hardcover edition, p592). The fact that Eileen Snape was cowering from her husband suggests that he was physically abusive to her, since you don't usually cower from someone unless you are afraid they're going to hit you. If Tobias Snape did indeed beat his wife, then it is certainly possible that he beat young Severus too.
