He projected his "love" on Sakura because of Sasuke. Sasuke was the one whom he wanted to reach. Since Sakura wanted Sasuke, she was also the thing to "reach" because she correlates to Sasuke.
"Screw CANON - I have OPINION" and its brother "Screw CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT - I have FAVORITE CHARACTERS".
Typical NaruSaku.
VERY typical.
Very SAD indeed...
No need to hate Sakura in order to like Hinata (or 9000 times more so in reverse).
I like Hinata a lot, and it really grew much further by the end of the manga.
I likeD Sakura before I got assaulted by Hinata-haters who can't see beyond their own noses.
I found Sakura extremely lacking after being forced into delving deeper into her character (by those mentioned above) - plus, Kishi really screwed her up towards the end with her constant (and FAILED beyond annoyance) attempts of "becoming as relevant as Naruto/Sasuke".
Kishi was probably trying to show Team 7's TEAMWORK - but he ended up simply ruining Sakura even more.
I blame it on Kishi ALONE.

Sadly, that is usually the faith of the main female character. She is shown to be a promising character and then eventually becomes as less popular as a side character. Lol
English please, how do you hate someone to like someone? Makes no sense.
Well..Good for you?
Lol.
Devled deeper into her character? Lol, please elaborate.

"FATE", not "FAITH" - and you're the one to demand "English", loool.
Makes perfect sense to Sakura-wanking Hinata-haters.
I encountered SCORES of those.
I was 100% NEUTRAL towards Sakura (and even Hinata) when I watched P1 years ago.
Then I had a long break from Naruto, eventually being reintroduced to it through a Confession video - immediately becoming a Hinata-fan.
In the meantime, I've had DEFENDED Sakura after reading a fic that killed her cruelly.
I was ENRAGED by the anti-Sakura points there, while totally ignoring the apparent SasuHina in that very fic.
Retrospectively, this is the BEST proof that I'm perfectly justified to blame my current anti-Sakura'ism on Hinata-haters ALONE.
Which brings us to to the point of "hate in order to love".
Seriously, HAVEN'T you read all those threads of "Hinata is a BAD character cause she revolves around Naruto - but Sakura is a GREAT character cause she cares for other characters beyond Sasuke".
Which has been NEGATED by the very CANON EPILOGUE itself (693/699).
But the point is that:
a. Sakura is AT LEAST as much "about Sasuke" as Hinata is "about Naruto", including the "-KUN" part.
b. Sakura clings to the guy who TRIED TO KILL HER; Hinata clings to the guy who INSPIRED HER TO CHANGE.
c. Sakura was ready to BETRAY EVERYONE for Sasuke; Hinata was ready to DIE for Naruto.
d. Sakura was ready to KILL Sasuke to save him; Hinata was ready to DIE to save Naruto.
e. Sakura NEEDS NO REASON to love Sasuke; Hinata BRINGS UP PLENTY OF REASONS why she loves Naruto.
f. Sakura shares NOTHING with Sasuke; Hinata shares her NINDO with Naruto.
ETC.
But "Hinata is a BAD character, while Sakura is a GREAT character"... *MEGA FACEPALM*

Sorry for off-topic, but it was just too funny to pass.
Weak attempt of being a grammar nazi, Faith means the same thing as Fate, look up the definition, it just has different spelling, other words also have that sort of stuff, example is aeroplane and airplane.

Shows how short your attention span is.
I'm using this as an example of me CARING for Sakura's death MORE than about SasuHina (Note: I now despise Sakura and am allergic to NaruHina-breaking ships).
I...guess...so?? Lol
Okay...???
