Haha, sorry friend, but you're in some deep denial right there.

Nothing wrong with hoping. Denial: Noun
The action of declaring something to be untrue: "she shook her head in denial".
The refusal of something requested or desired.
If NaruSaku happens then it happens. I'm just leaning towards the other side. Nothing is canon till it happens.The first one, just read chapter 3 and way other chapters including after Hinata's confession it's love and romantic thing.
Jiraiya died loving Tsunade and he still loved her forever, Obito loves Rin even she being dead,Tsunade loved Dan and all that those characters have in common is that they never had a reason to move on from their loved ones, the fact is the only characters who got reasons to move on from their love interests are Ino,Sakura and Karin, the reason why i dont believe about Naruto moving on is that he doesnt have a reason to move on at all, he sure loves Sakura and he knew she loved Sasuke way before and despite three years away from her when he came back he still loved her, if Sakura did something really bad to him like Sasuke did to Sakura then he would move on, making him move on from Sakura to Hinata just make seem that he's dull and his love was false.
Dont come with Sakura still loves Sasuke because it's not an excuse otherwise he would have move on ages ago.
Lol, no, that's a bunch of bullcr*p. It's sweet and romantic, but forever doesn't exist. Especially for people who will never feel it or have ever experienced it. You seem to be listing more on grieving characters and lost love. Clearly Obitos love for Rin is healthy. Clearly Jiraiya's love is an unfulfilled one. More regret than anything else. I think you should take a sociology class and reevaluate your definition of love. Just because you love someone doesn't mean much really. As I said, it's not about moving on. Things happen, feelings fade. And that is normal. If they don't someone is just in a loop of insanity and denial also obsession. narusaku happen in the first place because naruto love sakura and not sakura love naruto. and i will say it's love when naruto want to always protect her both physically and mentally. just look at obito. he is another naruto clone who have the same love setting. and where we are now. and jiraiya the so called pervert who think that rejection from tsunade as a failure of his life.
just like narusaku3g said if we remind that naruto still love sakura than naruhina is gone.
That's not love. It really isn't. That is just a codependency from people who have low self-esteem. It's unhealthy, especially if the actions become unhealthy and obsessive. If it happens, I hope it's not because of that. And hell, I could say this about Hinata in her earlier days. But it has shown that she has grown and developed in a positive way.X) Should enjoy what you have. And really whatever happens will be good as long as the writing is good.Hey, NH fan. You'll bring some action here. I'll just throw out my two cents now.
The last time Naruto's love for Sakura was emphasized was in her confession, which was not long ago in their universe. Don't underestimate her by calling her a childhood sweetheart. The people he holds closest to him are his earliest bonds, that is Iruka --> Team 7 --> K11 --> Villagers. That is always how they show up in Naruto's mind, he'll never let his bonds go because of his lonely childhood. Besides, He's already confirmed he is in love with Sakura to Sai, it will ruin his character if he goes back on his word imo. And how you'll describe NH is the way I see NS, I guess we're looking for the same in each our OTP.
btw, I've been forgetting the chapters lately. The only reason I remember them is because people are mentioning them here, or sometimes I think of it at the last minute. My Naruto heart is so cold these days. :3
Moriarty is the name, not really a fan. Just having some fun.
High school sweetheart then. No, old bonds don't easily go away, I'm not saying that at all. And I'm not underestimating her. We already know where Sakura stands, she "loves" Sasuke. But while that is going on, Naruto can still tighten his bonds with others. Since we are using real world perspective to analyze this ... for example I loved my childhood friends. Still love them but I have stronger bonds with my new friends, and I love them tons more.
Going back on his word? I think not, saying he loved her and then loving someone else doesn't mean he went back on his word. Why should he be tied to someone who said they like somebody else? That's torture.
Maybe we see it the same way, but I don't think it's for the same reason.
