Do you believe in unconditional love? (24)
I only know the unconditional love, since they don't usually accept my conditions.

Well, in theory, I do. When I´m put to the test, I kinda falter sometimes.

pisceslady7: The term 'unconditional love' is used quite often. I was wondering how many people believe in this. I actually do not and will explain this after I have read a few replies. Please explain your answer.
Starts by unconditional but by time one side put conditions

Giving of yourself without hoping to receive. It's an ideal I think and something you can work towards but I think we all have a bit of selfishness in us we can't escape. But, I've never been a parent so this may well be possible outside my experience.

Actually I think the idea of unconditional love other than for our children is ludicrous.
We dont fall in love with people for no reason, we fall for their personalities, the way they treat us, the way they make us feel etc. If that changes, and everything can, we sometimes fall out of love.
Unconditional love would mean we love a person no matter how they treat us, no not for me.

great thread, looking forward to reading what folks say.
love: storge, phileo, eros, and agape.
with agape..yes...with the others, not so much.
i would like to believe that one can reach a state of love without conditions in all their relationships, but in reality, i am rarely able to do this. but i keep trying...and in this case, i do think effort is more important than results.

Yes i believe people love their children and family like that, but a partner? maybe if you connected so deeply i could see it, but that is not often, i have seen couples in the hospital that are so much in love that they would do anything for the other, so yes its possible, and yes i believe in fairytales and happy endings:-)

It depends upon what level of love you find acceptable.
A child who has been treated badly by a parent will always have some kind of connection with that parent which may be described as unconditional love, even if they don't like them, or are extraordinarily resentful towards/angry with them. That unconditional love may take the form of being open to the parent's reformation and a willingness, or wish to accept future love from the parent.
As for lovers, it should be accepted as conditional. Although, having said that, there is some level where I do care for the welfare of my daughter's father, regardless of how he behaved. There's a kind of unconditional love in there somewhere, but its not a happy, fulfilling kind.
I think I'd sooner have happy, conditional love and stick to reasonable, healthy boundaries.

This one can get a tad slippery--one can have unconditional love for another and yet not agree or approve of certain attitudes and actions. (It is the bad behavior and ideals that are not loved, NOT the individual.>> We could not have successful rehabilitation programs if unconditional love meant allowing unprogressive behaviors to thrive<<).------ This poll is Archived ------
I universally and unconditionally love all.
Doesn’t mean I would interact with and develope a relationship with all.
I may refuse someone, for whatever reasons, but that decision is not based on love.The element of love is constant and always there. It doesn’t enter the equation.
My refusal of someone might consist of standards not being met not conditions.
If I were to set up conditions for someone as in it’s either this or else and they fail, I’d probably disassociate with them. But again, the universal and unconditional love for them at its very core, from one human being to another is still there.
Someone that who has refused me I’m sure have their reasons, but those are theirs.
I might choose to become angry for a time or not. I can dislike the actions of some, but again, at the same time I still have love for them as a fellow human being. Whether or not they are aware of this really doesn’t matter. It’s important for me that I know.
Now, romantic love is another ballgame.

If love is conditional, then it's not genuine love at all.

All life is conditional.
And if you repeatedly kick your dog, not only will it fart, but it will also bite you.
