NH is okay from a real life standpoint. A lot of people just aren't really that romantic. Someone like Hinata really is the depiction of an ideal wife in a lot of cultures. There are a lot of dudes who would turn up their noses at spending the rest of their life with someone like Sakura when they could have someone like Hinata. Unless she had her personality which she uses around Sasuke, which is basically the same as Hinata. In that case though, it would be creepy because she's dumbing herself down to serve some idealized version of something. This is something that is not realistic.
The unrealistic aspect is not the relationship isself, but how the relationship comes to pass.
Hinata is very shy. So shy that if not for moments of Naruto about to die, she wouldn't even be talking to him. She would never have the courage to talk to Naruto at all throughout her whole life no matter how much she loved Naruto. And like you said, alot of guys like the HInata type, so wouldn't HInata have alot of guys after her affection as well? How many guys would be wanting to confess their feelings for Hinata only to be ignored by Hinata herself? I guess this makes Hinata a bad woman.
Eventually, if Naruto continued to take no notice of Hinata, there is a good chance she would move on to one of the other guys confessing to her figuring Naruto just doesn't see her. Eventually she would get upset or mad at the fact that she is ignored. Mostly likely upset, but she wouldn't be so pathetic to hide behind trees or stalk him everywhere. She would be happy just to run into him.
Naruto, being so uninterested in Hinata in the first place, would completely ignore her because of that shyness and his inability to see her at all. He would also probably keep trying for Sakura, give up for a while, and then either just not care about relationships or start to get back into them if Sakura showed interest. What would you do if a crush you had finally noticed you? You would probably freak and think you have a chance. Naruto however wouldn;t even even go for Hinata off the bat. He would probably actually try some of the other girls first. Ino, Temari, Ten-Ten, and so on and so forth. Also, just because Naruto and Hinata might meet does not mean that Naruto and HInata would hook up. There is such a thing as "the wrong type" and honestly this is what NH is. They could date, but I don't see Naruto being happy with it because of the type of girls he is into. The shy nice girl that did everything for you eventually becomes just a high school fantasy rather than a relationship people actually want. I can imagine anyone here can growing up wanting people with these character type only to realise that it was nothing and what they really wanted was someone to give them the respect and attention they want Especially after horrible relationships.
Could NH work in real life? Yeah, but that doesn't garuentee it would happen or they would stay together if they did grow up. The problem is that of the characters supposedly remaining the same after years and years of growth and they wouldn't.
Hinata wouldn't always remain shy and obsessive. Naruto wouldn't always remain a brat, Sasuke wouldn't always remain an kitten and Sakura wouldn't always remian obsessive and highly anger prone. They might keep some character traits like Hinata's cuteness, Naruto's goofball attitude, Sasuke's introvertedness, and Sakura's anger streak, but it would be toned down and more refined with all of them still having the undertone of their original behavior.
Hinata would probably still be cute, but it would be more undertone than overtones with her being more forward with aspects...especially ones that are important. Kind of like being serious about life problems, but end up being cute to her pet. However, she might have a drawback of having to rely on someone else too much. Not to say she can't take care of herself, but that for going farther than needed...she needs someone else to boost her. She will only do the bare minimum and that's it.
Naruto would be a goofball undertones, cracking jokes, and having fun when it is time to have fun, but when time comes he would be more professional. Still would crack a joke or two. I see Naruto like myself.
Sasuke would still keep to himself mostly, but he would talk to people if they asked him or wanted to talk to him. He just wouldn't go out of his way to socialize. he wouldn't be an kitten either anymore. In fact, he may even become religious...or a drug addict. Sasuke can go either way, but since I want to think more positive than negative, he might become religious and reserved. Probably a Jehova's Witness or something along those lines.
Sakura would become a strong independant woman, but occasionally smile and have fun. I can see her being one of two ways. She would either be a woman who is very determined in her lifestyle and very stern, but loving with her kids aall the while being a tomboy or she would be so independant that she wouldn't even touch guys at all unless one really made an impression on her. Probably believing her kids need "a real man."
This is why Naruto and Sakura work so well because they both have similar personality traits, but also supply something the other one lacks. Naruto would crack jokes and make Sakura laugh every now and then....probably causing her to shake her head and can't help but smile at him and Naruto would need a woman like Sakura because Sakura can take action with or without him and that's what he needs. She can take care of herself so he can focus on his own things. If he gets with Hinata who is so reluctant to do anything for herself, then he has to worry about her all the time to make sure she is doing things right or has support. Hinata is not independant enough for Naruto's taste which is probably why he works so much. Hinata can't take care of herself completely.
The sex would definitly show in the relationship.
Naruto and Hinata would be the same sex over and over. Naruto's takes charge, Hinata takes it.
Sasuke and Sakura would be...nothing really. You'd be lucky if Sasuke has sex at all. He is extremely asexual.
Naruto and Sakura would be over the top, but fun. You can see Naruto and Sakura changing places, wanted to try different things, and so much more. Think of all the sex in Deadpool and you pretty much have that.
Naruto: "Gasp....you had a dishwasher."

Indeed.
I was reading a story on FFnet which was a redo of the Naruto and Sakura in the Last conversation, which I was curious about because I did my own parody of it, but whatever. It was the typical Sakura feels undeserving so she pushes him towards Hinata for that reason. Anyway, it got a bunch of hate reviews saying basically "You're just butthurt because Kishimoto planned Naruto and Hinata to be together!"
Why is the argument always from that standpoint? Why is it never "You're butthurt because Kishimoto planned Sasuke and Sakura to be together?" Is it because the idea of him planning that is too ridiculous even for them?
Yeah basically. We even saw this in the pro-ender camp when NH and SS were celebrating. When SS was getting shafted hard in gaiden and the SS were saying "Hey, why such disresepct for SS from Kishimoto?" all of the pro-ending NH fans were like "Shut up and who cares? Naruto and Hinata are so cute together."
It's funny that the anti-enders was showing how we came closer together with SK, SNS, and even some NH and SS anti-enders coming to NS fans saying "Man, I am so sorry Kishimoto just kitten on NS like that. You guys didn't deserve that." The ending brought us anti-enders togethers and made us love each other more all the while the pro-enders were arguing with each other because the SS wanted them to be happy and the NH fans didn't care for SS at all. It was all so sad and funny.
