He's more trouble than help.
I'm sure JKR has some Thing he's meant to do, because we've been told for 6 books running now that Dumbledore kept him around in spite of parental/student/other teacher protests, and he Must Have Had His Reasons.
Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Because books.
My insula! It's all my healthy insula's fault!
You know, Chewbacca was my big love in the original Star Wars trilogy. Maybe that's where my Hagrid love comes from.
Suddenly, I don't want to know what this says about me.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
By this definition, she is quite unlike the Wife of Bath who had no such scruple.
Fine, then. Give her whatever title you like that goes with scruples, but I assure you that when your back is turned she can be quite the bawd. She has certainly tried to enjoy that kind of grown-up women bawdiness with me, and I think my cringing No, you're my mommy! Stop it! reaction is a mild disappointment to her. But she just indulges that side of herself with her friends and their daughters instead.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
At least Chewie quite obviously had a brain in his furry head. I couldn't say the same for Hagrid.

Is your husband large and hirsute?

Um... I did tell him once that if he shaved his beard I would leave him.
I should add, though, he clearly has a brain. A nicely spicy one, too.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Give her whatever title you like
Ex-Wife of Mildly Naughty With Close Friends, But By No Means A Bawd.
Hagrid can die heroically in the last book if that's the plan. I'm down with his Noble Sacrifice.

Remind me to give you notice when Bears are having their next shindig in the Castro.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hey, I like Hagrid. He loves all the ugly animals no one else likes and is incredibly loyal. Despite his lack of smarts, I'd hang out in his cottage and have a cup of tea with him.

The animals which continually endanger everybody? Btw, he was a crap teacher too.
