One common theme is the struggle for acceptance. Both Sasuke and Sakura often have to accept the reality of their loveless marriage, which can be difficult considering their past relationship dynamics. Another theme is the slow build - up of understanding. They start off not really knowing or loving each other in the marriage, but over time, they begin to understand each other's motives and feelings.
One popular fanfiction in this genre is 'The Hollow Vows'. It delves into the complex relationship between Sasuke and Sakura in a loveless marriage setting. The story focuses on their internal struggles and how they navigate their forced union. Another is 'Shadows of a Marriage', which shows the coldness between them initially but gradually reveals the possibility of change as they face various challenges together.
A marriage without love was called a " marriage of little value." When a couple's relationship lost the nourishment of love and could not be changed for a long time, people would feel hopeless and disappointed. This kind of disappointment might extend to disappointment in marriage and life, and eventually, it would also lead to disappointment in himself. However, not all marriages must include love, because love sometimes fades. Marriage needed to face the challenges of daily life and the test of getting along with each other. Marriage without love may be painful, but some people think that marriage is an ordinary warmth, like a fire in winter. In a loveless marriage, an individual may feel the pain of not having love. Happy families all had similarities, while unfortunate families had their own misfortunes. When a marriage did not even have good sex, it would come to an end and there would be no possibility of further progress. Therefore, people had different opinions on whether a marriage without love should continue. Some people believed that marital status should be improved through communication and returning to basic principles, while others believed that if there was no love in a marriage, they should divorce and give each other space and opportunities to find happiness again. In short, love was an important prerequisite for marriage. Without love, marriage would lose its meaning.
The relationship can also be developed through their interactions with other characters. For instance, if they have a child, how they both interact with the child and how their parenting styles differ and blend. Also, how they interact with their friends like Naruto and Hinata. Maybe they have double dates or group outings. All these interactions can show different aspects of their relationship and how it grows and evolves over time.
However, as the story progresses, he may start to see the benefits of the relationship. Maybe he realizes that Sakura can be a strong ally and a source of emotional support. He might gradually open up to her, starting with small gestures like sharing his thoughts or protecting her during battles.
At the beginning, Sasuke is likely to be his typical distant self. He might view the forced marriage as another obstacle in his life. But as time goes on, Sakura's kindness and determination could chip away at his defenses. Sakura, for her part, will develop more confidence. She has to deal with Sasuke's moodiness and the fact that they are forced together. This forces her to stand up for herself more and also to understand Sasuke on a deeper level. Eventually, they both might become more well - rounded characters, learning to compromise and support each other.
Love and commitment are common themes. These fanfictions often explore how Sakura and Sasuke, who have a complex history, come to fully commit to each other in marriage. For instance, they might show how Sasuke overcomes his past traumas to be a loving husband.
One idea could be that Sasuke, being a CEO, is forced into the marriage for business reasons. Maybe his company is in a deal with Sakura's family's business. Sakura, on the other hand, might initially be against it but gradually discovers Sasuke's good qualities. For example, she could see how hard he works to keep his company afloat and his sense of responsibility.
Sakura could also handle it with a sense of pride. She is a strong character in her own right. So, instead of feeling like she is being forced into something, she takes charge of the situation. She makes it clear to Sasuke that she expects respect in this relationship. And as she continues to grow as a ninja and a person, Sasuke can't help but be drawn to her, changing the dynamic of their arranged marriage for the better.
