The purest of love would be so externally "other" centered that such a love could not love singly. It would be an all encompassing love.
As humans, though we may have an unlimited capacity to love, our nature is such that we only have a limited ability to actually do it. We often love out of lack, out of need, out of want.
The purest of love would come from someone so complete that love would flow from abundance, out of a "knowing" of the depths of the human condition and still the choice would be made to love, not in a dichotomous fashion, but in a pure "knowing" of purpose, in spite of, even because of, the knowledge of the human condition.
