unconditional acceptance
Love without terms
Unconditional acceptance is regarding someone as worthy and valued regardless of their behavior, flaws, or circumstances.
The term appears most often in psychology and self-help contexts, where it describes love or approval that doesn't depend on meeting expectations: Children thrive when they experience unconditional acceptance from their parents.
Distinct from unconditional approval of actions—you can accept the person while rejecting what they do.
