Is there truly such a thing as unconditional love? Can a person truly accept someone else despite any flaws that person may have or may gain at some point in the relationship. When I speak about unconditional love, I'm not talking about the love of a parent but romantic love. Can it be unconditional? If I was a size 6 when you met me, will you still love me if I become a size 16?We all have character flaws and most people have body image issues. We all want that perfect man/woman, but what if you like someone who isn't picture perfect who doesn't fall in to your usual type? You feel like this person is made for you, except she isn't the perfect size or she isn't the prettiest girl, can you still love her? Will you be embarrassed to bring her around your friends or family because she doesn't meet that cookie cutter mold that they would necessarily expect from you?
I know I have met guys who I thought were great but I never gave them a chance because they weren't physically what I was looking for and I am sure I may have missed out on a great guy. I'm not sure if I could really ever be with someone I wasn't physically attracted to, I would like to believe that I am a better person than that, but I can't really say I am. I recently found out it hurts to be on the other side of that criticism. Someone telling you you aren't quite perfect and that he has issues with the way you look. It hurts a lot and it is a big wake up call. I became very upset but then I realized that I have done the same thing in the past to others and now it's just my turn to get my comeuppance. So I'm left wondering if there is anyone out there who can really truly love someone unconditionally?

I think I could love someone unconditionally. It would take a lot for me to reach that point, but I definitely could take a person with some flaws and love them and their flaws. I guess in the end, the things I love have to outweigh the things I don't like. I really do believe that lots of women can love unconditionally.
