    I’ve had zero problems with Puffin since installing it on my iPhone.  The app does have ads but they’re at the bottom of the screen — which I can live with.  I’m just glad I don’t have to deal with annoying prompts asking if I want to go to iTunes on my phone.

    So @eonline took down the stupid spoiler that called Emma's choice to save a life "stupid". Yay journalism?

    Hmm, I never thought of those two examples as conditional love. Gotta revise that section again…Interesting though. 🙂

    If LOVE is freely given then it should also be freely taken back at any moment based on the actions, deeds, thoughts, ect. of the person to whom the love was given. 

    Yes.

    I think probably since Elsa’s snow power and Regina’s magic are both tied to their emotions, that’s how their similar.

    I don’t believe in unconditional love outside of parent to child. That relationship should always be unconditional.

    I realize you said earlier that you’re not in a relationship and have no desire to be at the moment, but speaking as someone who is in a relationship, from my experience, I think unconditional love is what makes a healthy loving relationship between two people. But I also recognize, there can be both conditional and unconditional love in a relationship.

    I love my boyfriend very much (we’re going on almost 8 years now), but I do have my limits.  He has unconditional love for me and I for him. But I know for certain if he ever cheated on me, I would break up with him.  Because I simply would not tolerate that kind of behavior.  I’m not going to be someone’s second choice.

    But to other than that…no, love is conditional. I have the right to stop loving you if it turns out that your are, say, a murderous sociopath who skins women and wears said skin as a cloak.

    I agree with you.  Everyone has their limits and it’s different for everyone.  If I were Belle, I would run so far away from Rumple at this point.  I know Rumple would never purposely do harm to Belle now, but still, living with a person who has such an extreme addiction and will likely never change isn’t healthy either.

    I think love can be both unconditional and conditional and but in most cases,  love has to be unconditional.  Because it’s generally, the most healthy kind of love.  Once you attach conditions to love, it get unhealthy very quickly and sometimes destructive.

    I’ve been thinking about that shadowy ominous pic of Killian in the jail cell at the sheriff station and thought, [x]

    Okay, considering the spoilers we’ve been getting in regard to Emma and Hook’s individual character arcs in 4A, I think this snippet from the recent TVGuide article makes sense:

    “The theme of Frozen is the power of love, and that’s been the theme of our series since Season 1”, says Kitsis. “Also, we both put out the message that it’s OK to be different. In fact, it’s better than OK-it’s to be celebrated.” [x]

    Emma still has issues. Just because she’s in love with Hook, doesn’t mean those issues will disappear overnight. And Hook has issues too. We’ve seen Hook with both hands but we don’t know the context of how he got his hand back, so the psychology of what is going in his head is going to explored next season. And then, if this is the second theme for 4A, it also means, Emma is going to help him accept that it’s okay for Hook to be the way he is; the same way he helped her realize it’s okay to embrace her magic.

    The idea who deserves love is really subjective.

    I know, but I still wanted to throw it out there.

    This is my own personal view so take it as such: no one “deserves” love outside of the love a parent has for a child. That always needs to be a given. But other than that, no. Love must be earned. And if it turns out that Regina and Rumple don’t get their happy endings because they have done HORRIBLE things to people and those people are not willing to love or forgive them, then that’s the breaks, kids. You are not owed loved just because you’ve ‘seen the light.”

    I agree.
