She totally doesn't get what a blessing unconditional love is and that is sad. I'd much rather have unconditional love from friends and family than the kind of "love" your friend thinks is the "best" kind. Knowing that my family and close friends love me, even if they don't always like me helps me make it through life. Knowing that even if I screw up royally from time to time, I have people who will still love me.

Yeah that whole time difference thing is a bit annoying.
