That I have realized that people do make mistakes, people will stop caring. People will leave. There is no such thing as unconditional love. I know I used to think I had that for someone, until they used it up. A long time ago. But there is such a thing as working together. There is such a thing as mutual, healthy love, and it CAN be like unconditional love as long as both are working to make it better. Life will change. Life will bend. Jobs, people, situations, homes, it will all change. The one thing that stays the same is being true to oneself, being a caring, understanding person, and letting go when things get unhealthy. It is not wise to stay around for a friend, family member, or anyone else for that matter if all they want to do is hurt you.

Unconditional love is there. It is not something you can give to a significant other. You can't "fall" in unconditional love. Unconditional love is what one would feel for everything/everyone. You wouldn't unconditionally love someone for who they are, you would unconditionally love someone BECAUSE they are. The simple fact that they exist is what you unconditionally love. Unconditionally, I love everything for the fact that it is here. I unconditionally love my best friend because she exists, and I love her as my best friend. I unconditionally love my ex-roommate because he exists and he is of the same energy as me, but I do not like him because he lied to me and owes me a large amount of money. If you do not hate, then you are capable of unconditional love. Take this last example: I unconditionally love you, though I have no idea who you are, what your name is, where you live, and I do so because we are of the same energy and we are equal. I can not judge as to whether I like you or not, for I do not know you, but I can unconditionally love the fact that you are "human" like myself.

To Unconditionally love is to love without conditions. Most love because of the "of"(loving them, common factors, relationship, so and on and on) to unconditionally love is to love in spit and regardless of the "of".

Well, I personally believe that people attribute too many meanings to the word "Love." The "conditions" under which you can love a friend/relative/anyone are different from the "conditions" for sexual relationships in which you're sharing your whole life with the person. I consider "unconditional love" to be possible simply because in my definition of "condition" it is given that the other person does not take away from who I am. In other words, "unconditional love" is a love without requirements (they don't have to be beautiful, rich, or popular), they can be themselves as long as it does not detract from who you are. When they start requiring you to be someone else then you cannot share your life with them, but with a friend it is not as important (you don't have to share all of the decisions/be with all of the time).
I guess in short, I can "love" you for who you are and genuinely wish you happiness, and this requires nothing of you (which may mean unconditional love). But when it comes down to whether I can share my life with someone without losing who I am, that has completely different demands on the word "Love."
In all I agree with you. 3nodding
