Sakura's situation is indeed extreme (beyond anything that could happen in real life), so I suppose it's possible that your mind just couldn't copy with how awful it is and failed to sympathise with her as a result.
Just because someone doesn't agree with your opinion about a character is no reason to get all holier than thou on them.

Rubbish. Whilst you're undeniably supposed to pity Sakura, you're also supposed to respect her for her strength. She isn't created solely to be felt sorry for, she has a role in the story and her own personality that makes her endearing and makes you want to care for her.
You, perhaps, but not everyone feels the same way. That's why there's things like popularity polls, because people feel differently about the same characters.
