What Does Ultimatum Mean

Answer 3

An ultimatum means
that you, the person giving the ultimatum,
are giving someone only two options:
1- They do Exactly as you say
or
2- Else!
That else could mean you never see them again, or whatever horrible thing.
Most people hate them, but sometimes they're so necessary.

Answer 4

People are not able to make other people suffer for eternity, but no ultimatums are not a part of love. Unless we are talking tough love in which the end goal is better than the current state (ie drug abuse and a parent making his child he loves go to treatment. ) This ultimatum is the ultimate love. But ultimatums such as "propose to me within three weeks" or "buy me a pair of concert tickets or else" do not contain love. You must look at the motive of the person giving the ultimatum to see which of the above two categories it fits into. Greed or ultimate love.
