   I believe that only God's love is unconditional but we can give it our best shot. True love sacrifices itself for the object of affection and when we truly love that much it won't be short lived.

   i think its the completely requited friendship of the most full feeling imaginable.. like, you see there faults for what they are and know their faults and still love them no matter what they do, you know the person they are and you love them for it.

   There is unconditional love. This love is usually given to caretakers/caregivers, such as parents and other family members. It is basically saying they will love you no matter what.

   It's far from conditional..otherwise everybody would be friends of each other.

   I'd have to say, in my experience, that it is mostly conditional.
   
   But, actions and emotions are two different things. You always can have one and not the other. To me, it's only when both are in sync that it matters. Love is cheap when there's nothing there besides the feeling. Just my opinion

   no. love is always conditional; for example, if someone repeatedly cheats on you, you'd probably leave them, meaning your love is only available for them if they're faithful. there's always something that will trigger you to leave/stop loving someone, so it's always conditional.
   
   unless, of course, you're God.

   A person is the product of: How much he has grown, how he chooses to live his life, what values he has decided to put into practice in his everyday dealings, who he/she really is deep down inside and how he chooses to deal with it.
   
   Unconditional love is a rare quality that only can be realized by an individual through his own personal journey through life. Some people who practice certain religions would find the process shorter if their hearts are truly open to embrace these deeper mysteries.
   
   The ideal of unconditional love transcends our natural instincts to a higher ideal and for this, i'd do my best to attempt to achieve this.

   Nah, there's always conditions. You love your mom, but what if she killed your wife and children? You love your kids, but what if they dedicated every day to making your life hell (not in a metaphorical "oh those teenagers" way, but really).

    Unconditional unless they do something that is unforgiveable or mean, but I suppose that means there is a condition borne out of how I expect to be treated (and vice versa).

    Being human, we have our own faults, we're not perfect.
    
    I don't think anyone is capable to loving unconditionally, aside from the Big Man up there.
    
    My values aside, we all have that one thing that will make us hate the other person when it occurs. It's something we can't change because it's what/who we are.

    it should be
    but no many do
    when you love some one and expect the same from the other person, the unconditional love stop there
    when you love unconditional, you ask for nothing and expect anything in return, you just do, you just love

    I think that love suppose to be unconditional. Love does not hurt. It is not painful and it does not destroy. If someone intentionally hurts or betrays or does something truly unforgivable, then it makes you wonder if they ever loved you at all. If it is easy to cut someone out of your life, then it makes you wonder if you truly have loved them at all.

    I think if you love somebody, you just accept her, she may do kick you, jealous, declare war, did not want to share ice cream with you etc but if you just love her, you just admit it and randomly says "how sweet!" for all of her actions. thats my lines for... da da da... unconditional.

    True love and friendship does not involve conditions being placed to earn that love or friendship. Too many marriages or relationships are based on conditions and that is why they end in failure.
    
    Jesus is the example for me because He gave His life for me before I existed and all I have to do is accept the fact He died for me.
    
    He said the greatest love is when one will lay down their life for another. No conditions was placed on who that other is or what they needed to do to earn doing that.

    I think friendship and love are a two way street. If one person doesn't share the love or friendship it eventually falls apart.
