I mean, this quote triggered the question:
"To love someone unconditionally is not to care who they are or what they do. Unconditional love, on the surface, looks the same as indifference.
I'm having difficulty understanding.

i definitely disagree. Uncondidional love is not being indifferent, it's ACCEPTING someone and not rejecting them because of any characteristic that they have. You dont have to agree with everything they do, but you would still love them.

Unconditional love is a good thing. It's the love a mother has for a child. The "indifference" comes in when the person who is receiving the unconditional love does something wrong and the person giving the love doesn't react. It is the same love that Christ has for all of us.

Unconditional love = love that you give no matter what that other person does, is, or whatever. When it talks about being "the same as indifference" it refers to the fact that when you love unconditionally you often seem indifferent to what the person does, you still love them no matter what. Make sense? :)

Unconditional love means I may not always like you or the things you do but I love you always

The only possible unconditional love has to be God, and His love is only unconditional if every last soul is eventually saved. If one is lost His love is not unconditional.

unconditional love is the love that a parent feels for a child. it is so strong that no matter what the child does or who the child becomes, the parent will always love them the same

To love unconditionnally means that what ever you do, I will care, but I will still love you. Like a parent with a child they love, that child will perhaps do something so wrong that it's parents will be disapointed in them, but they will still love them. It doesn't mean stupidity, it means what ever you do, I love you. But I don't have to agree with what you do, say or believe, but I love you none the less. That is how God loves us. He doesn't ask us for perfection and know we may fall from time to time, but that will not hinder His love for us, and He will still wait for us to come back to Him. (like the prodigal son)
The opposit is conditionnal love, that means I love you, but you must meat my conditions or else I'll stop loving you... That is crual, and mean and not the way God loves us. He even loves those who reject Him. Though they will pay the consequences for their choices, He doesn't love them less.
Also know that it is the most perfect and purest form of true love.

To love someone unconditionally means you give love regardless of whether you get something in return. It is selfless and sounds like a pretty cool thing to me.

Unconditional love may also be tough love if necessary but is non-judgmental, not indifferent.

To give without expecting something in return. To give with Love. As our Holy Father does.
