@Uchiha, nobody understood Naruto, seeing as he was seen as a beast that everyone hated. He had every reason to despise his village, but he didn't. He wanted to be acknowledged, and later even wanted to protect them.

Sasuke had the admiration of most of the village, but pushed them away. He had no idea of the real reason Itachi massacred the clan, so all he had to hate was Itachi. The rest of the villagers would stand by him as a Konoha Shinobi, but he threw it all away.

In the end, no one can expect anyone else to understand them. The most they can do is let their friends help them live past their problems.
