You are correct tricksie-chan I think its only logical to think that there was no need for Sakura to confessed her feelings to Naruto without lying when she could just told him to drop the promise. If she did lied after saying herself that she didn't wanted to make another mistake she will be making a big mistake hurting Naruto's feelings in the process and Kishi will be making his heroine look bad for the public (even if the people already hate her like she was the Devil incarnate).
Sakura:
-Was willing to protect Naruto by killing Sasuke.
-Willing to make him break the promise if it means to change his mind in bringing Sasuke back to the village and ease the burden she gave him.
-Expected Naruto to hate her for killing Sasuke as her punishmen for relying on him too much and for the pain she has caused him.
Sakura believes she deserves to be punish for all the pain she caused Naruto what better way for him to hate her? especially when he hasn't done a thing to her but being a true friend and loyal companion, someone who loves her very much. Someone in this thread mentioned that Sakura may think she's not worthy for Naruto and I believe that person could be right, but this will change if Naruto does tell her that her forehead is pretty and kisess it resolving the bench scene.
yes i agree with you and primary colours123 and Ciardha
and as for for the confession :i think sakura lying is impossible from all the ways because:(and said it before in page )but i add now)
1-as gravenimage mentioned before:she told herself (not sai who said or yamato...... no she who said) she will not make onther mistake.... not only if kishi make her lied all will hate her....how he will deny all this deveopments he make and the 2 hints ....and onther 2 hints in the 6naruto movie made by kishi???
it is impossible becaus i think kishi already prove that sakura really loves naruto even before the confession ... all these developments and make her hug him very romantically hug after he returned the village also prove that she really loves him ..... i believe that from the first and before the confession all the developments only prove that ...... and also as mentioned before from the realistic point of view:there is was no need for the confession to break the POTL ....she can just tell him break the POTL i dont need it ....but as gravenimage said before she was(in her mind)want to tell him how she feels for him befor he hate her(in her mind)........
in the anime i am wating this episode of the confession and the episode when sai will talk to naruto becaus in the anime make more and more developments and any one see it knows that she really loves him .... and i think in the anime they will make her when you only see her(when she confess) you believe that she is completley true and she really loves him and i think also they will make every thing is very obvious (like always) . i can guess the episode of the confession will be after about 7 episodes ... and when it come i will come with it and i will tell al what was sai speak to naruto
2-i believe that he close all the ways of sakura's feeling to sasuke (even i believe she moved on from sasuke long time ago)after
first:when she told sasuke that she loves him mush and he knocked her and leave her on the bench ...
second: when sasuke tried to kill her 4 times and specially the last 2 times
so after all these(
NarutoIzDaMan show it in the debate thread more and more obvious )and what
NarutoIzDaMan said before i cant think that she have any feelings for him
3-i believe also that kishi close all the ways to NH (more than one mentioned that before in the debate thread )
first:hinata ignored by naruto by more than 60 cahpter
second:naruto never think in her as love interest by any way and he cant understand he mush and in every time whe hinata is fainted he cannot think why she fainted (he cant understand her)
third:after pain die and whe he returned to the village: i think if he had any feelings for her he will go to her and thank her for helping him to can beat pain .......
so after thos he close all the ways to naruto for having any feelings for her or at lesat can understand her ... he just think think her as good friend
[b]fourth:the way of the smile of hinata(that kishi made) when sakura hugged naruto in chapter 450 seems to be that she want him only to be happy with who he love and who she love him(sakura)..... it think if kishi intend by any way to make NH he will make her very angry .....but never .....he make her very happy for him
fifth:if kishi inted by any way to make NH he must make developments .....and that never happen.....but happpen with sakura and naruto....he make more and more of developments
six:also if kishi intend to make NH ...i think that he was should make hinata defence for naruto in chapter 488....but never happen it is sakura who defence for him ....and hinata dosenot make thing
so from all sides i am sure the confession is true
and also as grevenimage said before : by make sakura loves naruto he show to us how the true love that is depent on FRIENDSHIP and ACCEPTANCE and TRUST......not a crush of a girl for a popular guy like SS or even NH that hinata dosnot know anything about him when is now a young man
EDIT:
I made this post and i know itsnot it place but i cant understand why some peoples in this forum are still saying the confession is fake becaus one reason (what sai said about sakura 's feeling .....and it is sai who said and it ismust to be romantic feelings and mustnot sai could be right) and ignore more than 10 reasons and the developments and the hints and say it is fake......SAKURA CONFESSION WAS COMPLETELY TRUE ABOUT HER FEELINGS FOR NARUTO
