For and from pets.

a dog is the closest you will get i think

I would have to say yes. I would always love my daughter without conditions.

Ever had a dog? Pretty unconditional love from them and back again. It is god spelled backwards, incidentally.

The only unconditional love that I have ever experienced comes from my best friend, Frankie my dog.
What the religionists call unconditional love is nothing but a delusion. This so-called God loves them so much that he would burn them in eternal hellfire at the drop of a hat.

Everything may be possible next to unconditional evil.

I don't know.

I love my daughter w/o reservation.

Being that "love" is an emotion caused by the firing of chemicals and neurons in the brain, I would say yes. There are many different types of "love" (love for one's child,romantic,etc.) So the question is vague but ultimately because emotions are chemical responses, I would argue yes. These feelings can be unconditional but they can also be controllable.

Of course there is. Well, with certain reservations and qualifications.

By nature we can not love unconditional. Even the most "pure" love we feel, have one kind of condition.
Try to define "unconditional".

Everything has conditions, some are easier than other to fullfill.

I’d not have understood the concept without having children, and must now answer, yes. I feel it. I give it. There’ve been times in my life I’d have liked to have killed my parents, for good reason.. But have to admit, I unconditionally love them.

My question is, can you experience it beyond blood kin..?

Yes. I loved my ex-wife unconditionally. She killed that love, but that love never failed. I waited a decade for her to say something and when she finally did, I felt nothing. Love had died. I did not hate her, but I had to leave her and the rotting piece of my heart that refused to give up behind or it would have killed more. If she had never said it... it'd be five years later and I'd still be with her, a rotting zombie...

There is a conundrum in stating love can or can not be “unconditional”. In my view all aspects of life are conditional including love, it may be a denial of conditions we perceive as bad or negative. In the natural world and interactions between people, almost our everyday life is driven by conditional experiences, interpreted by our emotions and previous experiences.

For me up to now with 2 kids yes. I love them without putting conditions on that love(although I do tell them my favorite one is the one that is most well behaved) but I'd say personally as far as my children are concerned yes it is a thing.

Yes. I've seen it a few times in people and often in dogs. unfortunately humans have a hard time actually loving.

Aside from my unconditional love for my children, the only unconditional love that is evident to me is what emanates from my Autistic, developmentally disabled foster son, who is now 36. No matter what, he has a memory like an elephant, always gives warm hugs, and though he is essentially non-verbal, he has a uncanny understanding of humor and sensitivity to emotion expressed. No matter how he has been treated before he became my foster son "born of the heart" at 10 years old, he still has solidarity for those who could not treat him well. It stands that yes, while he is developmentally delayed and moderately intellectually delayed, he still has the capacity to love and dare I say, forgive? It's incredible because in my experience he is the only ever, absolute non-judgmental person. He's pretty much my life coach.

No unconditional love. Your other half cheats on you, lies to you, and steals your stuff. Done.

BACON, need i say more ????

I think there can be unconditional love for a mother and child, child and aunt, uncle, grandparent and humans toward pets. When it comes to a man and a woman it should be the goal but not always the outcome.

After a lot of thought... my answer is NO!
If a family member begged for forgiveness I would probably forgive because of love for a child. It all depends on knowing the person and what they've done. We said it a lot in AA. We were not suppose to know the person or their actions. Only that they are a human being needing help with alcohol. We were to allow them an opportunity to listen and later on make a comment. That's a hard question if i were asked in a meeting where beginners were. I truely would like them to get the help they need. It might be whats needed to help his family. There's really no rules that state I have to love a person so it's NO.

Define love.

If so, I'd imagine it would be only one sided.

maybe at the pinnacle of the Maslowian pyramid
