Hi. Don't know the way to detect what is what but if there are conditions involved then it is not love.

Yes and some people do make lots of conditions on their love and some people expect lots of things in love.

I also think unconditional love is the best. The love of children and mother are one of the best unconditional love.

I think some people love others without any condition and without making any suggestions or wants while some people love others and say that he or she loves only if the certain people behave in certain ways.

Well anything that is conditional is like a barter system, you give me this then I will give you this. This brings misery as in conditional love we expect a lot in return. While when love is unconditional you love for the sake of love and whatever you get you are thankful for it as you never expected anything in return.

I honestly think unconditional love is better because how can you put conditions on your love for someone? How can it be true if you say I love you if you do this or dont do this I honestly dont think that is fair. I accept people and love them for who they are and dont judge them no matter what they do.,

Love before marriage is unconditional whearas love after marriage is conditional love. If you want to love for long time then do only conditional love otherwise you lost your life in short span.

In conditional love, I would love you if you followed exactly the conditions that I laid out for you. In unconditional love, I will love you regardless of whatever you choose to do. I do not want to be loved just because I have done only certain things. I have seen adoptive parents who have rejected their adopted kids because the kids were not perfect and made some mistakesi nlife that their adoptive parents did not like. Conditional love is not good. To whoever reads this, I give to you unconditional love.

For most of my life I have had conditional love from spouses but now that i'm married and my husband is gives me unconditional love i'm loving it. with true love there shouldn't be any question marks which is better than faking it.

The difference between conditional love and unconditional love is: Conditional love exists. Unconditional love is only a theory. We have debated this many times over the years and have concluded that every example of unconditional love has a condition. Therefore, it is not unconditional love. The main example most people cite is a mother's love of her child. This is incorrect. After all, if the child still existed by was not the mother's child, that alleged unconditional love would not exist. The condition being the child is the mother's. And so forth. True love is intertwined with love based on need so they are part of each other as opposed to separate. And as for what is good, that is all relevant.

I also think true love is more important in love. I think when a person loves another person very much most times it might be unconditional love.

Love is unconditional on all links. Unconditional is always better than conditional, I think conditional love is what one has for themselves, that way they can delegate what do i like best about myself or what can i change?

Conditional love is demanding , while unconditional not.The difference between true love and need based love is that true love is pure and permanent while need based love is selfish and trasitory. Certainly that is good which is pure and permanent
