As a character, she is far better than any of the other females.

She has more room for development than any of the females (and many of the males, as well,) and it is revealed to us that it was Hinata that was the first person to acknowledge Naruto as one who can be a Ninja, not Iruka-sensei.

I'm not saying the relationship will happen right away; relationships usually take time, and Naruto is still in his "Crush on Sakura" phase. Once Sakura ends up with Rock Lee, that will end.

As for why I think Naruto will eventaully get into relationships... the story, like so many others from Japan, is a coming of age story. A major part of any persons life is falling in love with a girl. This story is likely to last for quite some time, and since many people seem convinced there will be a time jump, that means we'll be seeing more love-type relations in the future, since the kids will be 15-16 if the timejump is as long as people think it will be, the right age for getting a girlfriend/boyfriend.

Oh, and as for Romance not having a place in stories like Naruto? Why can't it? One of the best Shonen Jump series of all time, Rurouni Kenshin, practically FOCUSED on the romance between Kenshin and Kaoru.
