I think Snape had a major thing for Lily. She was nice to him but that was where it ended. Snape hated James anyway and became even more bitter when he ended up with the girl he liked. I think he hates Harry because he is a reminder that James got his girl.

I agree with you. Lily stuck up for Snape when James picked on him, and even though he was nasty to her, he appreciated her standing up to his archenemy. I think Snape's (Professor Snape!) guilt and reason for protecting Harry stems from his love for Lily.
