I know I am probably going to get bombarded with rage at this question, but I have been curious about this for years now:
Why do so many people hate pairings? It is not like they even affect the story too much. Sure we got a NaruHina moment or NaruSaku moment from time to time. They were not constant occurrences however that happened chapter after chapter. Even when they did happen, they were generally either brief (except for chapter 615) or actually important to the story (ie. Hinata getting stabbed by Pain causing Naruto to go into a rage). At the end of the day however, the pairings didn't really have an effect on the fights or the plot too much. Who sealed Kaguya? Naruto and Sasuke did (Not Naruto and Hinata or Sasuke and Sakura, etc...). Who casted the infinite tsukuyomi? Madara Uchiha did (not Madara and Mito as apart of their secret affair behind Hashirama's back). Who defeated Obito? Naruto and Sasuke with a senjutsu susanoo covered Kurama. What was the main cause of the conflict in the series? The cause was Black Zetsu's manipulation of Indra and Ashura's descendants along with conflict in Hagoromo's family and lineage about how to bring peace to the world (and also a crazy lady obsessed with chakara). It had nothing to do with pairings. The list goes on and on.
The closest thing to a pairing that had a huge effect on the story was Obito's love for Rin. Even that wasn't really a pairing because Rin has been dead the whole series and she liked Kakashi anyway.
Since pairings have so little effect on the story, I don't see why they get so much hate. Hating pairings is like hating Shino. He is so irrelevant that there is absolutely no reason to hate him or bear much emotion to him at all.
