Conditional love is nothing more than trade. It is not love. True love is unconditional. It is so rare to see in todays world that we are led to believe thay conditional love is the "true love" when it is not. Do be careful when someone lies to you that they love you but are actually after something else, and are just using the "I love you" as a manipulation attenpt to get what they selfishly want.

Actually all love is conditional in varying degrees. So it's rubbish what you said. For example if my sister shoots me I will find it hard to love her right you might still but she's breacged a pretty serious condition of shooting in that extreme scenario. If I love my wife and she cheats that'd a breach of the condition of love being she cheated and was balls deep in another bloke. So yes there are conditions but sometimes people ignore breaches or sometimes they are so upset they can't and leave the love contract so that's all you need to know

The only *entirely* unconditional love is the love of God. The good news is that some human and animal love isn't far behind.

I've loved a lot of people and I've stopped loving a few. Here are some of the reasons why I stopped loving people...

He tried to rape me.

She actively and deliberately sabotaged my engagement by spreading rumors behind my back which she knew were not true.

He literally insulted and gaslit me every day for 3 months and conned me out of every penny I had.

She responded to a major health crisis in my life by abandoning me, sending me an email about how evil and toxic I supposedly am. She told me what I was going through was my own fault because I was a horrible person in a past life and I should quit complaining and take it because it was my own fault.

...so yeah, my love does have limits, but they're not the kind of limits a decent person would ever run up against. 100% unconditional love would be toxic among humans.

True love has no conditions attached to it, initially at least, but there are some degrees that require some conditions, otherwise, some people take the piss, like selfish asshole kids who steal from parents to feed their habits, so the parent still loves their child, but they need to apply conditions to that love otherwise it will destroy them.

I don't think that conditional love and support are genuine. Parents who give out that kind of love are deluded. After all, they should accept their kids as they are.
