When I teach of unconditional love, I don’t mean for someone to unconditionally love their abuser without doing anything about it. I believe that if one person is willing to unconditionally love, they need to tell their spouse that that is all they believe in, and explain it to them. You can use all the excuses you want, but in the end, even though people can grow apart in interests and physical capabilities, love doesn’t fade or grow apart - it’s always strong and invincible, you just have to choose it. Everyone should know, understand, and believe in unconditional love (the only real love) before selecting a romantic partner.

He put his hands around my head and kissed me softly on my unwilling lips before stomping up the stairs; leaving me in the cold darkness... Many Months Later… He’d only ever treated me as his platonic slave. He only ever ordered me to bath myself, although he did have me strip and do things in the nude. I admitted to myself that I wanted him to touch me.
