The example:
Let's say you are the pride of your parents and the shower you with affection dearly. But have you ever wondered why you are the Pride of your parents? Well, because you are smart, talented, hard-working and responsible, but most importantly you are obedient. Your father wanted you to learn to play play the piano and you did. Your mother wanted you you to babysit your younger ones when she went to the club to play bingo, and you did. Both your parents were not highly educated but they wanted you to go to University and be the first in the family to become a graduate and make the family clan proud, and you did. Your parents wanted you you to marry before you turned 32, and you also complied. All in, you are a good boy, A Perfect son, and a Golden Child in Their Eyes. Your compliance made them very happy and people's see you as a filial. But what if if you had said no to them?would they still love you as much? What if your father had asked to you to study medicine and you insisted on learning fine art? Do you think he would regard you as much as if you had obedient to his wishes?
Our love for others is not yet unconditional, Even a father's Love for his child comes with conditions attached. A mother's love for her children is more genuine by genetics default, because her stake is higher. She risked 9 months of pregnancy and tons of invested effort and time on the infant. Nature I have programmed the mother to be more sacrificial so as to increase the survival of the Species. Other than a mother's love almost all sorts of love are conditional. Even with Romeo and Juliet... if Juliet had not been that pretty I think Romeo you would have think twice before dying for her.
In romantic love, which from my experience, two persons energy is complemented and merged at the moment when they feel strongly for each other. At the peak of their relationship, one becomes the pride and life of the other.
