Lol the fact that Sakura blushed the second Sarada asked her if they've ever kissed implies they did in a sense and that she was more so surprised/embarrassed that the question was asked. As far as the testing your reply..
Is Sasuke giving Sakura his ultimate sign of affection paired with a dry ass "sorry" isn't enough? Nope
It does? Wow ... come on, man. You can do better than this.

She looks downright dejected. You think she wouldn't remember a kiss with Sasuke; something she pined so desperately for several long years? Does that make sense to you for her to forget it even if they kissed even once? Heck, when she smiles, she has another thought on her mind, and she even states that, "remembered something better." Which means a forehead poke came to her mind and not a kiss?
Ultimate sign and then hitting and running? Is that so hard to accept that this marriage was for an heir? What's with west and their odd notions of romance?
Neither am I. I just like to poke fun at SS and I don't like the pairing and Sakura fans butchering Sasuke's character.
I don't know anything about that, but it fits with the databook released with the movie and the novelization of it. Both state the same thing: Sasuke left.
The pairing makes sense. Sasuke placed Team 7 on the same level as his family. This/the next page.

After easily losing to Itachi he felt that his bonds with them were a weakness that kept him from making the progress that he wanted/needed so he severed them so he could focus solely on achieving his goals. After fighting Naruto he regained his bonds and opened up to his comrades. Sakura was the only girl he was ever close to, and she always tried to help him. Him developing romantic interest is plausible.
Anyway, i'd rather him conduct his Shinobi activities & train Sarada rather than get lovey dovee family moments.
He's probably travelling now to search for the original Otsutsuuki's homeworld to investigate these potential threats.

Sasuke never lost a physical battle to his inferior rival. The score remains 4-0.
Because she does to Naruto what you wish you could?

1. Sakura looks SHOCKED at the question, not “afraid” of it. I think anyone would be caught off guard by such a question. Not to mention, being asked such a thing by your incredibly young daughter.
2. I think that she looks sad BECAUSE she hasn’t seen Sasuke in such a long time, let alone be intimate with him. And I feel like anytime Sarada brings Sasuke up, Sakura can’t help but get emotional due to missing him so much. I don’t think this has anything to do with “not being kissed”, just a genuine reaction to missing someone she loves.
3. Sakura is thinking about something more meaningful to share with her daughter, rather than a kiss. In my opinion, a kiss is something that can be given without any sort of emotional attachment. Of course, young Sarada wouldn’t understand that at the time, so Sakura shares his forehead...... As expected, Sarada didn’t understand that a “kiss” isn’t the only expression of love that one can give. The reason why I believe that Sakura chose this was due to the meaning it held behind it. First, it was a promise from Sasuke to Sakura that he would see her again, but it also stands as the ultimate expression of love that he could ever give to someone else. And that kind of emotional connection is something that he couldn’t give through a simple kiss. I also thought that Sakura used this as a method to connect Sasuke to Sarada. In the hopes that an older Sarada would be able to understand this, rather than at that time.

It doesn't make sense as he never had any romantic interest in her. Never in part I and it was dragged through mud and gutters in part two. Considering them a second family means nothing, when it happened way back in the past. In Shippuden, the only bond he decided to break was Naruto. Why? Because that was the only person he considered a bond with. You don't break anything if a bond isn't there.
When he thought of Team 7, the only person he desired to rip away from his life was Naruto. That was explicity shown during his statement to Obito and his thoughts about a picture being torn exactly at Naruto's face. Solidified during Vote II. Where were Kakashi and Sakura in the equation? Nowhere.
Naruto is the only person he has ever made and maintained a bond with. In his monologue, there is literally no mention of Sakura. The only time she's mentioned in passing is when he considers Team 7 to be a "shadow" of his family. When he literally considers Naruto his family in the past, present and future:

It was Naruto that made him feel "pain," who reminded him of his brother. This is something Naruto states as well, that watching Sasuke in pain "hurts" him:

He states that seeing Sasuke in pain, hurts him greatly. Profoundly. It's the same sentiment Itachi gave in the end, when despite his love for the village, he couldn't see Sasuke in anguish any longer and decided to confess that, "his love for him was greater than any bond and Village and ideology." The mangaka created a parallel between Itachi and Naruto. Albeit, I don't consider Naruto's love to be on the same level as Itachi's. But, that's a different matter.
And Sasuke does that comparison in a way through his monologue:

Why is Sakura not "ever" mentioned as a bond that truly endured the passage of time, aeons even, as they are reincarnations of brothers? Why is she a "shadow" of the past, a lingering sentiment that faded over time like Kakashi and not a bond that stood the test of time and hardships? As that is what Sasuke's "monologue" is about: bonds that last through thick and thin and still remain; a true bond between families. She was a bond that never lasted for him.
I mean, look at his statements. She isn't even mentioned there. That one forehead poke scene shoved in there looks absymal and abhorrent as this monologue is about blood-brothers and family. Give this reply a thought.

I think I admitted that Sakura got sad most likely because she hasn’t seen Sasuke in such a long time, let alone be intimate with him. And I feel like anytime Sarada brings Sasuke up, Sakura can’t help but get emotional due to missing him so much. You gotta read what your replying too.
Really? Telling your kid that, "yeah, your dad kissed me," won't be understood by her? Okay.
As I said before: Sakura could've been cliche but she thought of something more meaningful to share with her daughter, rather than a kiss simply because a kiss is something that can be given without any sort of emotional attachment.

- This is the one where she's thinking about it?
- And I would say the same thing; the mangaka would needlessly shove in a visual linguistic cue he never mentioned?
- Highly doubt it. See? You are over-reading again. When she could have told her of the kiss and then said, "hey, there is something even better than this ... "

she will have more scenes on screen than the other female characters of konoha 11, that's why she is listed as a "main character" in the anime. Sakura, Temari, Ino and others mothers will appear here and there but more randomly. But it's pretty clear she will not have a subplot or arc about her. Hinata will serve as plot device/side character to develop Boruto and will have some random family scenes for the shippers.

Lmao commonality doesn't necessarily need visuals, do you need to see someone shit to know that can and do? Again Sakura never said they didn't kiss, she simply implied that said the forehead poke means more coming from sasuke.
Highly doubt it. See? You are -reading again. When she could have told her of the kiss and then said, "hey, there is something even better than this ... "
Just becuase she didn't say that isn't an indicator for yes or no, that's your opinion of how things could've been simplified but it doesn't counter anything I said honestly.

This was well written but the answer is simple. Sasuke broke his ties with his team in Part One. But there was one of them who was persistent. Persistent above all else. Who went above and beyond to help him - Naruto, whom was similar to him in several regards. This is why Sasuke highlighted Naruto so much. As i said, he regained his old bonds from the past after their battle. Which is why he opened up to Kakashi and Sakura. He developed a romantic interest in her then, not anytime before while he was focused on more important matters.
