Even army soliders stay connected with there families while being away for so long. Sasuke did no e of that which makes his actions seem disturbing.
Do soldiers travel to different dimensions?
No, they travel across the Atlantic but I'll give you that, the least he could've done was write.
If the NV has a inter-dimensional mail delivery system.
Dude the guy actually lived a family life before he lost everything. He was a happy go lucky kid before it all happen. He is far from the Naruto case. Who never even got to see his parents interact. Let alone raise him. Yet the dude treats everyone in the village as family.
Keep up Shazzy, Sasuke lost his mother and father horrifically before he was 10 years of age, being a happy go lucky kid doesn't equate to observing a healthy relationship and it most certainly doesn't negate how he lost them. It's kinda unbelievable that your insinuating that Sasuke witnessing his parents be killed before him or seeing their dead bodies isn't enough to impact his views of family and marriage.
Secondly, you cannot compare Naruto & Sasukes experience as children at all because of their major differences. True Naruto never saw his mother & father interact with eachother nor be present within a conventional family dynamic but he didn't lose it because he never had it. So because of that Naruto was able to establish connections with people that resembled family due to him starting from scratch. While Sasuke on the other hand had those connections even if he didn't understand them or know that he did but they were severed with the figurative and literal death of parents by the hands of his brother. And don't forget Shazzy, Sasuke closed hismself off from his feeling/potential feelings because he thought it would make his more powerful and goals achieveable.
So I'll reiterate, due to his past displaying emotions will always be unconvential and not up to maimstream Standerds but that's fine because Sarada and Sakura believe him.
His way of showing it was nothing special cause he stayed conservative through out his interactions with them
during the gaiden. Those petty images don't change the fact how platonic there whole realationship is.
Your putting yourself in a smaller box Shazzy.
Why does Sasuke displaying his emotions have to be special?
Why can't he express his feelings in a conservative manner?
What is the platonic standerd?
Why do you or anyone get to decide how love should be expressed?
Who are you to say if someone's way of expressing their feelings for another is petty?
In a nutshell, Kishi has clearly explained that Itachi's fore poke extended onto being Sasukes ultimate form of expression and that's a fact so you calling that petty doesn't stand.
