He also tried to kill her twice at the land of Iron bridge, which makes it three times in total. Kakashi and Naruto both rescued her from harms way or certain death from having a Chidori pierced through her chest and a Kunai through her eso****us. He also made her constantly build up pain inside which could easily damage her mind and mental state. She is only torturing herself, so if you think that this is love then whatever.
So without development how is a relationship love worthy?
Land of Iron bridge is the Tuechi Bridge I was talking about (probably spelling it wrong lol). And no, I'm not saying that's a sign of love, and I have admitted that it probably isn't love right now it's probably just that he still cares for Sakura.
That flashback moment was to realize that he is now over the past and everything that involves his family and team 7. Why in the hell do you assume that that flashback moment has anything to do with Sakura or that he secretly cares for her? Why because he stopped and froze? That wasn't hesitation. It would be really stupid if Kishimoto just cut her off and then we didn't hear anything at all.
I remember hearing from a teacher that an author uses everything whether it be pictures, hyperboles, similes, etc for a purpose. What you've done is simply interpreted it into your own form, and I've interpreted differently. I don't think the other time Sakura brought up that she loves him that he had the flashback of his parents, I feel that this scene is just something different.
The events that occurred after that it clear that he has no interest in her and to add, he EXPLICITLY STATED that he has no interest in her love nor does she see any reason for her to love him, and to be on the logical side, he is correct. There is no reason for her to love him.
Lastly, just because a person "Explicitly States" something doesn't mean it could have a different version to it. It's like an elementary crush, if you ask a little kid if they like someone in their class they could explicitly state that they don't, but they could be lying, who knows?
I'm not saying your opinion is wrong btw cause' everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
