Hi,
As a spirit being you are unconditionally loving. As a human being we seem to get restricted and conditioned in how we can love.
Even self love, when we do indeed love all that we are, has its limitations. In relationships it is best to look for mutual respect and balance. Without these elements in place there will be hardships and issues to deal with.
The personal outlook on life is a major factor. Most of us do not understand how energy works and why that law of attraction is so important. For we do indeed create our physical reality as a result of our thinking and our beliefs.

I would have to agree with john but as a side note please be aware that quotes must not be any longer than one or two lines.
Namaste

If loving unconditionally causes you to have to go above and beyond, to always step up and be the bigger bean, to always forgive and make right....is it really unconditional or is better if you walked away?

It's rarely possible, unconditional love. An acceptance and appreciation of the person for what they are, what they have brought to your life, with no expectations, no demands. The person may have traits/habits you wouldn't ordinarily like but you recognise they're part of what makes them what they are.
I'd say it's particularly difficult to love someone unconditionally if you've had a relationship (with them) that turned sour - unless you're able to detach yourself from the history. You may hurt but...you know that's your problem and it doesn't change treasured memories and the person is still the person they are.
You don't have to be a doormat at all. You deciding you won't be taken advantage of doesn't affect unconditional love. You are your own person and can stand against things that grate with your higher principles. It doesn't mean you have to surrender to being a servant.
And, conditional love doesn't always last. If someone brings only heartache or damage into your life you can't be expected to love destruction. If conditions creep in, it's no longer unconditional. You can change your mind.
I have unconditional love for my parents and soul-mate.

I agree that respect is an important element. Love is a reality, but it takes time and steps to learn what it really is.

I read a term applied Love or un-applied Love.
I first Dance with the Source of Love like with a secret innocent un-defiled Lover.
This allows me to apply Universal Love in a more universal manner in the physical.
I am still a tadpole and one day I will be a frog and the Kiss will come.
Don't loose Heart MysticalShaman.
2 steps forward and one step back.It's a Dance, EnJoy.
