"Yea, so today I explored Kaguya's dimension by teleporting myself an unimaginable distance, used my eyes to glimpse parts of reality no ordinary eye can see." "Yea well I healed some people".

How can Sasuke, god incarnate of a legendary clan with a thousand years of history, pain, shame, and pride, possibly relate to Sakura, a common kunoichi with no such history or baggage? How could she relate to what he perceives and experiences? How can he? If someone dies on Sakura's watch, she'd have to live with the shame of failure. if someone dies on Sasuke's watch, he can entertain the idea of literally returning them from the dead.

How do their experiences even relate? I can understand Hinata and Naruto. She born with innate strength but weak of heart, found inspiration in Naruto. Raised as the heir of a clan, she understands the burden on Naruto as Hokage, hell the burden on him as aspiring Hokage. She gets why he can't come home early. She understands the burden on her kids since it's what she felt. His godlike power is maybe not her full experience, but she too experiences being able to perceive what others can not. She gets his desire to prove himself because as clan head she was supposed to do that too. Sakura and Sasuke: they can get quite angry and violent towards others, their relations with Naruto, To name a few.

Naruto and Hinata: from tv tropes.

Despite having different personalities and fighting styles, they're very similar to each other, as pointed out by Lee, Sakura, Kiba and Shino. Both are considered failures by everyone around them, both suffer because of the respective statuses they have carried since birth, and both want to be acknowledged and accepted. Both are really nice, dorky, determined, loyal, and insecure. According to the databooks and Konoha Hiden, both like to eat red bean soup and preserve their plants. Their respective signature colors—Orange and Purple—share the common color Red on the color wheel◊. Finally, both are incredibly empathetic, despite living in a world where that trait is easily looked down upon. This is one of the reasons why they develop a strong friendship that grows into love.
