I believe in unconditional love but only when it pertains to one's children. We put conditions on every other relationship we have, but our children can do anything and we will still love them. I don't believe in unconditional love when it comes to marriage, there are definite conditions that we both must adhere to, to maintain & nurture our love.

I haven't put conditions on my love for my husband. They are just there. There are conditions on love w/i a marriage. I love my husband as long as he treats me with respect, kindness, etc. I love him as long as he doesn;t cheat on me or break my heart.
It's easy to claim unconditional love if you have a perfect marriage(not sure if that exists), but what if your husband cheated on you tomorrow, and then did it again and again? I have a feeling that love would start to fade...not so unconditional anymore...is it?
I have unconditional love for my children and that is it. They could do anything imaginable and my love for them would not be altered. That's not to say that I wouldnt be hurt or disappointed. They are the loves of my life.
