Again, comparisons with Gaara arise, but only his situation as a young child- as Naruto aged, he gained friends that supported him, where Gaara found himself pushed further and further away from healthy forms of interaction. This may have been due to his lack of understanding the reasoning behind his shunned existance within the village, but as these circumstances were revealed, he lost the belief in “any attention is good attention”, as one of his mentors, Iruka believed before him. Naruto, despite being just as alone in the beginning, always sought the attention of others, even if, as a child, this attention was negative. Fixation on one goal, and considering little else gave him focus when he was in turmoil, and that narrow vision allowed him to break away from things that he might otherwise have held dear as they impeded his ‘mission’. Hiding behind a blank mask, he refused to allow himself to become overly attached to others in fear of both losing them, and of being betrayed again.
