I wanted to branch off from
another post and start a discussion about unconditional love.
I have been thinking about this a lot lately and what
Dan.Linehan said in the above mentioned post got me thinking even more.
So what is unconditional love? Does it mean you stay in a marriage where your partner is cheating on you and says they no longer love you? That's just one example. I guess I am having a problem distinguishing unconditional love from letting someone trample all over you. Or would you be fine with their trampling because you love them unconditionally?
To start, I believe I can love someone unconditionally without condoning certain actions they may take toward me. I feel like if I am cheated on, I can still be happy and still love my partner, but I will no longer maintain a relationship with him.
What does everyone else think? It doesn't have to pertain to cheating, that's just an example I use because it relates to the thread that got me thinking about this as well as some other threads that have really made me consider my position on love in general.
