Do you find that everything is conditional? Does this make everything feel shallow, or like a transaction for you?

Literally everything is conditional. That's life.

it is conditional...closest thing we get to acceptance is maybe our parents/siblings love but that has its limits as well. its saddening because movies/tv/stories preach the beauty of unconditional love and internally, i think we all have a disposition to want that from others, but its unrealistic as well. i've never really come to terms with it, i still want it, but i know its pretty much impossible to get, so still figuring that one out

I don't find everything is conditional. I think doing so is a recipe for unhappiness. If you give a gift, expecting something in return, it wasn't a gift to begin with and takes away the joy on both side.

There's no way to escape it, but continue to be genuine and one of these generations we'll remember we're all the same.

Everything is conditional, even the idiots that post the most stupid crap and if you don't pat them on the back for being an idiot they delete your answer. Sad thing is there is no true happiness until you get rid of the idea of condition. It requires great effort but the alternative is to be fake with only very brief bursts of happiness.

Other people put conditions. I do my best to avoid it. I believe conditions cause everyone problems.

I'm not fickle, so no it's not, I tend to say what I mean and mean what I say
