'no one can prepare you for the love people you love can feel for them'

i can understand ''no one can prepare you for the love'
but after it, im confused
this is the line from the movie call ' about time'
i learn english with it
i have translation in korean but the translation in korean is not natual somethings weird
the lead man actor went into monologue
'no one can ever prepare you for what happens when you have a child.
when you see the baby in you arms and you know that it's your job now.
no one can prepare you for the love and the fear'
he said it, when they had a baby
and then this
' no one can prepare you for the love
people you love can feel for them.
and nothing can prepare you for the indifference of friends who don't have babies.'

Alright, so the film is a comedy and the sentence you're having trouble with is meant to be confusing for the sake of making the character funny but it just doesn't make any sense )))

Well, if there's more context to this phrase, please put it up here because it is difficult to understand it without more context. Also, there's no punctuation which makes it even more difficult to understand. Where does this come from? Are you sure it's not a mistake or a 'google' translation of a saying from a different language ? Automatic translation programs do not usually translate sayings and proverbs very well.

I myself pause the movie everytime when I watch this scene.
IMO
"No one can prepare you for the love"
pretty understandable,
"people you love can feel for them"
here Tim is talking for the love his family and friends have for the baby.
To summarise:
no one can prepare Tim for the love which his family and friends have for the baby.
