But her past crush on him causes her to think that she is still in love with him. It's sad but true, and you yourself mention that. However, you should know that Naruto is renowned for having its characters grow up out of manga stereotypes, and Sakura has shown many signs of growing up and realizing that the person who truly cares for her has been standing beside her the whole time.

There are also plenty of other words that she could've used. Personally, I would've said what Naruto did at the end of the Five Kage Summit Arc: "Because I'm your friend". We all know Sakura feels the same way.

As for you, Hisana - I'm sorry I'm not SasuSaku, okay? Thank you. Someone who agrees that she thinks she's in love with Sasuke is blind sided. I like Sakura but she will come to her senses and realize Naruto is the one for her. But let's not talk about shippings cuz it's a rule.
