There are so many things we can blame out problems on now that we know so much about the environment, psychology, drugs, so on and so forth. Everyone seems to want a new car, or a new tv, or a new something, you know? We're taught that if something isn't right, just get a new one. What about learning about why it was wrong? What about figuring out who you really are, and taking charge of your life with a "You know what? Yea, some fracked up stuff may have happened to me, but I'm going to fix myself. It may take years, but it's going to happen." I don't see that being encouraged, just a quick "Yes, you know... these experiences have really made your life tough for you, you'd better take one of these pills with breakfast and dinner." If it takes counseling to get past it, great! Be tough and do it, with the intention of the counseling being a stepping-stone past the problem, not a cushion to soften the sting of having the problem. No passing the buck or accepting an excuse, no matter how valid it is. I think unconditional love starts with ourselves. Until we can take the things that make us uneasy or ashamed, or whatever negative emotion they evoke and understand them, love ourselves for understanding, take steps to be different instead of hating and hiding, and ultimately loving ourselves even more for undertaking the struggle and winning, there is no hope of us finding unconditional love with another human being. When two people who have done this meet, I do think there can and will be unconditional love. But, it starts with each and every one of us.

53lady Jacksonville, FL age: 53	Wow! Lots of great replies here, and...some sad ones too! I have to differ a little here regarding the "unconditional" part of love. I'm having a hard time believing that one. There will always be "conditions" placed on love, and I wil be the first to admit that I do put conditions on my love for someone else --- now. First the biggest, and most obvious...on the extreme end of the scale. Child abuse, spousal abuse, of course...and drug or alcohol abuse (if not treated). These are the "condtions" which I will absolutely NOT tolerate. Now, tell me YOU would. People say they will give unconditional love, but what about repeated infidelity? And afterwards, refusal to commit to counseling? These are also two related conditions, that I cannot abide with. If troubles enter into my next relationship, where communication breaks down...I will want to go to counseling...before EVER considering divorce. BUT...if the person I love gets beligerent, refuses to go to counseling, and things get really bad..I will have to leave. So, come on now..are there any other "conditions" you personally would put on your next relationship? I will personally discuss these topics, before getting seriously involved, to make sure my significant other, and myself, have to agree upon BEFORE getting married. Unfortunately due to the "newness" of a "young" relationship, many couples don't even think of discussing these types of things before getting married I think. This just might be the reason for the rise in the divorce rate over the last few decades no real communication during the "courtship" phase, and faulty, little, or NO communication after marriage. I'm kinda thinking they ought to make it "mandatory" in high school to take marriage, family and communications classes. NBS JMO [Edited 10/26/2007 9:40:30 AM]

me4aminute Rutland, IA age: 34 online now!	I agree. Kids give unconditional love because of the honesty factor. I think they give it because we are so honest with them and they always know where they stand with us. I wish that I had done that with the people I was in relationships with. Things might have turned out differently in my life. I guess I know what to try the next time.

bucktail Poynette, WI age: 46	yep,,,,,,,,,but does that mean you have to be kind of a kid to love someone unconditional??

me4aminute Rutland, IA age: 34 online now!	No, I think that you need to be open and honest like we are with kids with the people that we love. I'm working on that.

sayanything Olympia, WA age: 27	Unconditional love is a concept that means showing love towards someone regardless of his or her actions or beliefs. It is a concept comparable to true love, a term which is more frequently used to describe love between lovers. By contrast unconditional love is frequently used to describe love between family members, comrades in arms and between others in highly committed relationships. It has also been used in a religious context to describe God's love for mankind. Some secular authors make a distinction between unconditional love and conditional love. In conditional love: love is 'earned' on the basis of conscious or unconscious conditions being met by the lover, whereas in unconditional love, love is 'given freely' to the loved one 'no matter what'. Conditional love requires some kind of finite exchange whereas unconditional love is seen as infinite and measureless. Unconditional love should not be mistaken with unconditional dedication: unconditional dedication refers to an act of the will irrespective of feelings (e.g a person may consider they have a duty to stay with a person); unconditional love is an act of the feelings irrespective of will.

suzydoll Cheneyville, LA age: 62	Seeing this post I went digging thru my puter library and found this that would be appropriate here. A Definition of Unconditional Love Love without condition I love you as you are, as you seek to find your own special way to relate to the world, or the way you feel that is right for you. It is important that you are the person you want to be and not someone that I or others think you should be. I realize that I cannot know what is best for you although perhaps sometimes I think I do. I've not been where you have been, viewing life from that angle you have, I do not know what you have chosen to learn, how you have chosen to learn it, with whom, or in what time period. I have not walked life looking through your eyes, so how can I know what you need. I allow you to be in the world without a thought or word of judgment from me about the deeds you undertake. I see no error in the things you say and do, in this place where I am. I see that there are many ways to perceive and experience the different facets of our world. I allow without reservation the choices you make in each moment. I make no judgment of this for if I were to deny your right to evolution, then I would deny that right to myself and all others. To those who would choose a way I cannot walk, whilst I may not choose to add my power and my energy to this way, I will never deny you the gift of love that God has bestowed within me for all creation, as I love you so I shall be loved; as I sow, so I shall reap. I allow you the universal right of free will to walk your own path, creating steps or to sit a while if that is what is right for you. I will make no judgment of these steps, whether they are large or small, nor light or heavy or that they lead up or down, for this is just my viewpoint. I see you do nothing and might judge it to be unworthy. And yet, it may be that you bring great healing as you stand blessed by the light of God. I cannot always see the higher picture of divine order. For it is the inalienable right of all life to choose their own evolution and with great love I acknowledge your right to determine your future. In humility I bow to the realization that the way I see is best for me does not have to mean that it is also right for you. I know that you are led as I am following the inner excitement to know your own path. I know that the many races, religions, customs, nationalities and beliefs within our world bring us great richness and allow us the benefit of teachings of such diverseness. I know we each learn in our own unique way in order to bring that love and wisdom back to the whole. I know that if there were only one way to do something, there would need to be only one person. I will not only love you if you behave in a way I think you should, or believe in those things I believe in. I understand you are truly my brother and sister though you may have been born in a different place and believe in another God than I. The love I feel is for all of God's world. I know that every living thing is part of God and I feel a love deep within every person, and every tree, and flower, every bird, river, ocean and for all the creatures in all the world. I live my life in loving service being the best me I can, becoming wiser in the perfection of divine truth, becoming happier in the joy of unconditional love. by Sandy Stevenson

repochick Rosemount, MN age: 29 online now!	My great Grandparents were married in 1932 and they lived and loved together until my great grandfather died about 19 years ago. She lived about 1 week longer than he did and then she too went. It was like she just couldnt live without him any longer. One night she told my mom that she didnt want to go on anymore without him and then she closed her eyes and dies in her sleep! I just wish we could all find that kind of love!
