Unconditional Love

What’s meant by “your love for me is unconditional”.

Unconditional means that nothing can change it. There are no conditions that can affect the love, and so, anything that they say/do/are is irrelevant. Doesn't really work in practice for obvious reasons, but it can be very close to unconditional love
Parental love is often unconditional.
Romantic love rarely is.

Contra what SupremeMemer said, "unconditional" means "not relying on conditions to continue existing,” rather than "not being subject to conditions that could undo it." Unconditional love is then love which nothing is actively expected from you to maintain. It is not love which is unsusceptible to being broken in any way. For example, your parents might love you irrespective of your positive value to them or to society, but such parental love can still be overridden by extremely unpleasant and unnecessary actions. It could still be accurate to call this love “unconditional.”

No matter how dirty the laundry is, the person will remain loyal to you, forever.

Unconditional love is, they will love you no matter what. But I believe when u say u love them or they love you so there need not be anything else used with the word love. Love itself defines so many things. I read this quote one day, if there was love it can't disappear and if it disappeared the love was never there at first. Unfortunately most of the people regard attraction, infatuation, attachment and obsession as love while they are not. Love is that you don't want to control them. Rather you want to let them go completely out of your control and let them do what they wish for and be happy for them. And it is completely normal to have love as well as other feelings such as attraction for the other person(in fact attraction in most cases is the first thing you experience and then may slowly fall in love with them)Also it is completely normal to just love them and not be attracted physically or something. Love doesn't define gender at all. And u never fall in love at first sight and you never can remember the time u really fell in love with them. And you fall in love with them every single time. It's not like u fell in love and that's it cool. It increases. For me they love is a thing of beauty and it's loveliness never ends(this is a line from the poem THINGS OF BEAUTY)
