If you want unconditional love

Tonight on Facebook, one of the people in my friend list said she was having a hard time and wanted someone to show her some unconditional love. So I chatted with her and asked how things were going, tried to show some support, and she acted like I was telling her I eat my belly button lint every night before I go to bed. Maybe you would find it easier to feel unconditional love if you let people give you some.

Quick aside - I've heard several times in the last few months that someone "wouldn't make me happy". This confuses me, as I'm pretty positive I know what I feel and when I'm happy or not. I'm tempted to believe that what is meant is "I don't think I'll be happy with you".

In order for there to be "unconditional love" there would have to be "conditional love" but that kind of love cannot exist by love's definition. There are 3 scriptures that talk about love unfeigned (2 Cor. 6:6; 1 Pet. 1:22; D&C 121:41) and you'll never hear the brethren discuss "unconditional love"... only love unfeigned.

Sorry your belly button lint wasn't exciting enough for her needs. And, I'm sure your hearing is fine. I think you got that one right, too. :)
