I have seen many references to the theory about Snape and Petunia, I tried to search for a thread just for this subject, sorry if there is already one, but perhaps a new one is in order now that we have more information, care of HBP and JKR.
I'm starting to think that Snape and Petunia hold the key to many unanswered questions, It seems that the two most unlikely people to be a couple may just turn out to be the most obvious. Many great points have been made to support this, such as: Their hate for James, Lily, and Harry. Petunia's knowledge of the wizarding world, Dementors, Lord Voldemort. what appears to be a womans writing in snapes book, Snape maybe being the one to beg Voldemort to spare Lily, for fear that this would hurt Petunia. Was it mutual, or Snape loved Petunia or Petunia loved Snape. and how will this relationship should it turn out to be a cornerstone effect book 7.
Okay Here is my soap opera version of what may have happened
Lily introduces Petunia to Snape, they fall in love. Petunia finds out that Snape is one of Voldemorts Deatheaters and wants nothing to do with him devastated and hurt she vows to have nothing to do with him or the wizarding
world. Snape heres the prophecy and realizes what Voldemort is going to do, turns to Dumbledore to change his wicked ways, out of fear Petunia may be hurt. Dumbledore suspecting what is to come makes Snape vow to protect Lily and Harry and he will protect Petunia. Petunia not knowing that Snape is trying to change turns to Vernon. When Snape tells her he has changed she tells him its to late she is pregnant with Vernons baby! Snape returns to his muggle home on Spinner's End alone and bitter.
