huh?

She's so bullshitting. She doesn't love Naruto romantically because he saved the village, and she hasn't stopped loving Sasuke because he's now a major criminal. It was painful watching her lie, and painful watching Naruto hear her out.

I do think it's possible that what she says now becomes the truth later on (like, near the end) of the series - but by then Naruto's either not believing, or just has his hands full and doesn't take it seriously. Not unlike Tsunade's little realisation before Jiraiya kicked the bucket.
