From the relationship between Snape and Harry, we can understand how the responsible part in Snape's personality was formed and why he seems to be very mean to others at the same time. The relationship between Snape and Harry Potter cannot always be understood by common people. Snape hates Harry because he is the son of James Potter, but me anwhile Lily's affection motivates him to protect Harry.Because Snape used to be bullied by James Potter and his lifelong lover Lily was stolen by James, Snape hates James. Since the beginning in the Hogwarts school, there existed the divergence between Snape and James Potter, James Potter was open-minded and bright, sunshine and handsome, he disobeyed rules to become the talent in the Quidditch pitch and he was swelled, while Snape was introverted, depressed and heavy, he did not care about his appearance and immersed in the research of potions. Both of them disliked each other and they were unple asant about each other, and their enmities were more deeply developed due to the reason that both of them liked Lily. In the fourth grade, the friend of James Potter 'Sirius' joked at Snape by almost throwing away Snape's life, although James Potter risked his life to save Snape. This affair made their relationship deteriorate. In the fifth grade, Snape was insulted by Sirius and James Potter, resentful Snape said to Lily, who came to help him, insultingly“mudblood". The divergence of the idea and the selection between Lily and Snape caused the rupture. Later, the hate towards Harry, the dislike and suspicion towards Lupin, and the exclusion towards the Gryffindor College were rooted from pasts of the studenthood.
