Okay, so Reya's doing this again, because I do feel this is important to the community. 3nodding
The thing is, that out of all the mainstream pairings, and that is SasuSaku, NaruHina, ShikaIno and NejiTen, I only like (obviously) NaruHina. In fact, I highly dislike all the others. Believe it or not, it is possible, so how come I saw threads in Simply Love 1 with something like "How would the kids bond with the Uchiha children?" obviously being the SasuSaku kids. stare
Couple fandoms should not come in packages. Just because I like NaruHina does not give you the right to automatically assume I like SasuSaku, so please do not advertise SasuSaku in the NaruHina guild. Anyone else with me?
Here's a rant I put on FF.Net: Quote: SasuNaru vs. NaruSaku vs. SasuSakuTo start it all off, screw all of them, GaaSaku, NaruHina and SasuYugi forever! -shot- Okay, I'll shut up now. The whole thing is annoying, for one, they're the most popular couples because they're obviously the most...obvious, and they involve the main characters - which happen to be teammates. Now, this would be fine with me, if it weren't for one thing: I HATE teammate pairings, why? I just do, they bug me (except ChouIno, the only one I like) I guess that pairing teammates up would end up with the other one as backround noise and I'm an equality freak, blahblahblah. But I'm not here to flame couples, I'm hear to scream at this stupid VS thing. For two, it seems like you HAVE to be on a side, its annoying because if you go on a discussion (*coughflamecough*) thread and, for example, I want to say that what a SasuSaku fan said was wrong and he/she took a certain scene the wrong way its a pain in the butt because then I suddenly get drafted with the NaruSaku-ers he/she was argueing with even though I hate NaruSaku! What is this? Does every fan automatically get a sticker on their forehead that says whether they're up for SasuNaru, NaruSaku or SasuSaku? Because it seems so and its getting on my freaking nerves! And I can't help but feel like a stick out like a sore thumb because I'm a big GaaSaku and NaruHina fan (plus I think Sasuke is gay) and I cant fit anywhere! Now that I mention it, the irritating thing when I read NaruHina is that its ALWAYS next to SasuSaku and it drives me mad because, dare I repeat it, hate SasuSaku? Do people automatically assume that, I dunno, like SasuHina that you're automatically a NaruSaku fan or that if you like NaruHina you automatically like SasuSaku just like what I went through? Why is it that I'm not able to hate SasuSaku and love NaruHina? Why is it that I can't love KakaIru and hate SasuNaru? Why is it that I just can't plain love GaaSaku without those goddamn fangirls screeching in my ear that Sakura sucks and/or should go with Sasuke and that Gaara is "their's"? Why is it that I can't go to the Naruto forums without having a label stuck on my forehead? And why can't I just read my fanfiction IN PEACE without worrying about seeing couples I highly dislike making their appearance?! For the love of whatever you believe in! Somebody please help me! ;-; (By the way, I wasn't serious about SasuYugi, I'm 86% convinced that Sasuke is gay.)

I kind of agree with you but not totaly. Before I start though, here's the pairings I like in order of how much for reference:
LeeSaku, NaruHina, KibaHina, NaruSaku, ChoujiIno, NejiTen, and ShikaIno.
Notice that SasuSaku isn't even on it, because I just flat out dislike the couple. Mainly because I really dislike Sasuke and think he doesn't deserve the awesomeness that is Sakura. But! I really don't think people advertising other couples they like in a Guild dedicated to a different one is a bad thing. This is because a) Any couple Guild where every single thread is limited solely to that couple will just die out for lack of conversation and b) debates are a good thing (if done in an intelligent and not an 'OMG UR SO STOOPID' way).
I mean, I think couple Guilds should take a neutral stance towards any outside pairings (There have been a few Guilds I've refused to join because besides the main character they represent, they've been officialy pro or anti other characters from the show that really should have nothing to do with it. Though, I don't consider affiliations under this catagory.) but only so that the members have the option advertising their opinions, whatever they may be.
So yeah, while I agree with you that people shouldn't presume you like a certain pairing if you like a different one, I really don't have a problem with people making posts supporting SasuSaku in a NaruHina Guild. They'll just have to put up with my argumentative responses. wink

Well, in defense to the people who do like both pairings (like me)...though some people (quite a few) really do support some pairings just because it would set them out of the way for their OTP. I believe that that is totally wrong.
But a LOT of people, like the mainstream pairings, each for their own reasons. I like SasuSaku, for logical reasons...and it's the sane for NaruHina. There are many concepts about both pairings that I like, and it DEFINITELY isn't because if Sasuke and Sakura get together, then Naruto and Hinata can get together (or vice versa), or simply because they're both "cute." My reasons for liking both pairings goes deeper than that, and since both SasuSaku and Naru are extremely popular pairings, more people begin to see the fandom, and begin to like them as well.
So though I agree that pairings shouldn't be grouped off, a lot of the time, that really isn't the case. I guess it all depends on the crowd you're talking to. o-o
Anyways, people are allowed to like/dislike any pairings they want. :3

In my point of view, SasuSaku isn't...that..great. I just don't like it very much. Sasuke seems like the crazy loner type that wouldn't really want a romantic relationship.
Then again, it could probably work with some effort. Not really sure.
Says the girl who thinks KakaSasu would be an interesting couple. ninja

Actually, no one knows Sasuke's sexuality except for Kishimoto himself.

I don't think that Sasuke would really be good with anyone. Especially someone as energetic as Sakura.

Yes, it is possible to hate SasuNaru, NaruSaku and SasuSaku. xp

I agree. They don't come in packages, and you shouldn'nt like on epairing and then go to another pairing so the other two can "be together". Some characters are meant to go solo, but there haven't really been any canon pairings in the series so far. So we never know, but I'm not sure if it's hinting towards NaruSaku or NaruHina. But I'm getting off the subject now.
Everything has been said already! gonk
EDIT:
I'm not going to get off the subject again, but just for references, I'm pretty much open to lots of pairings, but NaruHina is probably my favorite... and I dislike SasuSaku pretty much, but I can tolerate it.

I like a lot of pairings, actually, but I'm not going to bore you by listing them. rofl ok then rolleyes who WOULd you like to see together besides naruto and hinata? Okay then, you asked.
OTPs
-Gaara and Sakura heart
-Naruto and Hinata
-Shikamaru and Temari
-Kankuro and Tenten (I read a really good fanfic on this couple.)
-Chouji and Ino. The only teammate pairing I like, and probably the reason I hate all the others.
-Anko/Iruka/Kakashi LT. Poor Iruka xd . This is the first time I like two pairings that share one character in it equally.
Things that would be cool but I wouldn't scream if something else happened.
-Neji/Sasuke/Hanabi. (Don't ask.)
-The Akatsuki pairs, because they're all gay! D:< xd
-Shino and Moegi (Don't ask.)
-Kiba and Yugito. DogxCat FTW! And Yugito isn't dead yet and she most likely will have a significant role in the story because Kishimoto said so! Dx
-Asuma and Kurenai. Its hinted at but I don't really care that much. Dx
The reason I didn't put Sai anywhere is because I'm almost sure he's going to die by the end of the manga. No, I don't hate him, I even like him more than I ever liked Sasuke, but for me it seems pretty obvious.

Its incredibly hard for me to have 2 OTPs with the same character in them. xd
EDIT: And by the way, your Orochimaru-sama actually ripped off those avatars from Koaled in DeviantART, I know because I'm part of her family as Sakura there.
