I don't think there is such a thing as ''unconditional love''. While strong bonding and love can occur, you are still expected to contribute in the relationship.

I once heard that the only unconditional love in this world is from a parent to a child.

I have to say in my case this has proven to be true. I never cease to be amazed at how much my parents love me regardless of. . . well, anything.

That's common sense. It comes down to the saying ''Blood is thicker than water''. I answered the question in regard to spousal love and there is no unconditional love in that case. You lie, betrayed or steal their money and guess what? It's over....

If you do that to your parents and give them headaches, guess what? They're still on your side or have gotten used to you being that way. It'll never be over and even if it is, nothing can erase it in the DNA....

In terms of your parents disapproving your spousal it's typically because there is a reason. Your parents wouldn't be doing it to ********* or sleep with them like a friend, cousin or someone else would.

Lastly, no strong bond can beat that....

Love can be unconditional. It can survive a lot of strain, even betrayal. Real love can't be shut off at will.

Relationships are not unconditional and I think people tend to confuse the two.

while not unconditional because there are things she could as well as things I could do that would absolutely end our 33+ year old relationship. these things would be along the lines of a breach of trust but barring that I fully expect to see our marriage ended only by death.

for my part I cannot imagine life without her and I suspect if you asked her out of my presence she would say the same thing about me. it's beautiful.
