Still chapter 691 kind of perplexes me about Naruto's thoughts on where he stands with Sakura.
He didn't seem to have any problem referring to her as his sort of girlfriend to his dad. He atleast SHOULD be aware of Sakura being like Kushina and we got confirmation that Sakrua was honest meaning if Naruto gets around to confessing we know she'll accept it.
I get him and Sakura aren't official, but wasn't Kushina's request to "find" someone like her? Which doesn't mean be with (not at the moment) but it just sort of seemed like his confidence with Sakrua fizzles away at times.
Well, he has to confess (or at least accept her LOI confession) to start a serious relationship (that's a social convention for Japanese people). Maybe... that is why he couldn't voice Sakura's name. Because Kushina meant that one special woman and was very serious about it. I mean, it's like telling your beloved mother that you met this one girl you wish to marry, but the two of you are not together, more than that, you're not even sure that she loves you like that. And he wanted to appear to Kushina as a responsible son...
If he can't bring Sasuke back, Naruto can't confess, and if he can't confess, he also can't approach Sakura in a serious way. He makes his own life too complicated. (((
Everyone talked bad about how Sakura is for apparently "begging" in this chapter, but easily do they forget that not only did Naruto beg on Sasuke's behalf on some occasions, but also hyperventilated and fainted, cried, and so much more. What is really truly pathetic?
You're damn right!
