is known as affection without any limitations or love without conditions. This term is sometimes associated with other terms such as
true altruism or complete love. Each area of expertise has a certain
way of describing unconditional love, but most will agree that it is that
type of love which has no bounds and is unchanging. It is a concept comparable to
true love, a term which is more frequently used to describe love between lovers. By contrast, unconditional love is frequently used to describe love between family members, comrades in arms and between others in highly committed relationships. An example of this is a parent's love for their child; no matter a test score, a life changing decision, an argument, or a strong belief, the amount of love that remains between this
bond is seen as unchanging and unconditional. A common (and ableist) misconception is that one must love themselves
first before being capable of unconditional love; this is simply not
true.
