Oh no worries, I am NOT skipping any episodes. I'm actually a little obsessed right now.... It's not her abilities or feelings for Sasuke that cause me to dislike her but her personality. And I think that in Part One Sasuke saved Sakura too, so if that's the cause of their feelings they both have reason. In fact they both seem to care about the same things, how cool he is, how handsome, strong, smart, capable. All initially shallow but I think what an actual substantive love can grow upon. I agree that Sakura's love for Sasuke seemed awfully superficial in the beginning and she does have aspects to her character that I don't like (her temper and judgmental attitude towards Naruto for one) but the good parts of her outweigh the bad I think. I've heard that her character doesn't get the development it could have and that's disappointing for sure. I had hoped for Karin's character to develop more since she does have a fairly large part in the story so far. Being on Sasuke's team makes her part of the story more than just some interesting side character. I think it would make that whole dynamic between Sasuke, Sakura and Karin more interesting if she had a more likeable personality. And I really like Suigetsu and it's too bad she can't at least try to not be a jerk to him all the time.
