do you believe that unconditional love exists between two people? i had always thought that a truly unconditional love could only exist between a parent and child. like no matter what happens between you and the person you're with that you will love them no matter what. what do you think?

Ahhh unconditional love. It comes with much work, but so does any relationship. If you can give unconditional love, then you give much more than you think, & it's worth much more than diamonds or gold. It shows great characture, strength, courage to be able to love someone unconditionally. As well as a ton more adjectives!

I have seen unconditional love given to a child by a parent. I have also witnessed one spouse with unconditional love for the other, but I have never seen it when both spouses had it for each other. Still, I am not jaded enough to think that it might not exist for some couples.

You can have unconditional love with a partner.l It's very very rare though as people are always looking out for themselves first. I have experienced it for the last eight months and it is amazing and so peaceful to know that you are loved no matter what you may do or say, what you look like or if you get deathly ill.

Romantic love happens between two people.
Unconditional Love happens between you and your kids.

I may be seen as idealistic but I actually think that it can. I've been married 25 years and I don't think there is anything that my husband could do to make me stop loving him. Now if you ask could I LIVE with him now matter what he does the answer might be different.

I think it can exsist - but with much more effort than betweeen a parent and child. I think with your children you just love them no matter what. You don't have to think twice about forgiving them for a mistake - in fact you love them more everyday - no matter what. But with a spouse or s/o that is more difficult to find. I used to feel that way about my ex-husband. But no matter how many time I forgave him and no matter how much I loved him he kept hurting me over and over again. He broke me down to the point where now it is VERY hard for me to even trust anyone - not to mention love them unconditionally.
Good question.
I very much miss feeling that way about a man.

I believe its possible. If you think about... We choose to love our kids unconditionally for obvious reasons. Why can't we choose to love a spouse with that finality?
I think the reason might be selfishness and immaturity.... Well, I think I'll just commit myself 100% for a while and see how it goes..... What can he/she do for me today? That person looks more attractive or is more successful....
Just imagine doing that to your son or daughter! You know, he/she didn't turn out like I thought they would......

Of course it exists, but it takes a lot of work. Love is verb and thus requires action.
