Understanding how you give and receive love is key to having fulfilling relationships with your friends, family, and partner. That's why it's important to understand the five different types of love languages. Understanding your own love language—as well as those around you—can help you foster healthier relationships while providing insight into how best to communicate with each other. Let’s take a look at the five different love languages so that you can start recognizing which one is yours!
The Five Love Languages
The five love languages are the following: physical touch, words of affirmation, gifts, quality time, and acts of service. It’s important to note that everyone usually has a primary love language as well as a secondary one. Let’s take a closer look at each one.
Physical Touch
Physical touch encompasses handholding, cuddling, hugging, massage, etc. If your primary love language is physical touch, you need constant physical contact in order to be emotionally satisfied in your relationships. This doesn’t necessarily mean sex - although it can involve that - but rather loving gestures such as holding hands or putting an arm around someone’s shoulder when they’re feeling down or scared.
Words of Affirmation
Words of affirmation involve verbal compliments or expressions of appreciation. If this is your primary love language, then hearing “I love you” or other affirmations like “you look amazing today!” can fill you up emotionally and make you feel secure in a relationship. You may also enjoy writing thank-you notes or sending text messages expressing gratitude for something your partner did for you recently.
Gifts
If gifts are your primary love language, then receiving surprise presents from your loved ones is the best way for them to show their affection for you. Gifts don't have to be expensive – even small tokens like baked goods or handmade items can make you feel special and appreciated if this is your primary way of receiving love from others. Some people with this type of love language also enjoy giving gifts to express their emotions towards someone else.
Quality Time
Quality time means enjoying each other’s company without any distractions, such as phones ringing or televisions blaring in the background. If quality time is your primary way of expressing affection, then spending time together with no interruptions will make you feel valued by the other person in the relationship. This doesn't necessarily mean going on extravagant dates; it could mean just taking a walk together outside or sitting on the couch watching a movie side by side.
Acts of Service
Finally, we have acts of service - doing things that help out someone else around the house or work-related tasks such as fixing something broken or making dinner when they had a long day at work. If this is how you prefer being shown affection, then it means that someone taking care of mundane tasks such as laundry or grocery shopping would make you feel cherished because they were willing to do these things for you without being asked.
No matter which type (or combination) of love language(s) resonates most with you, understanding what makes us tick emotionally helps us better our relationships with those closest to us. Taking some time out of our day even just once a week to express our feelings via our preferred method can help strengthen bonds with friends and family — not just romantic partners — so don't hesitate to try out different ways until finding what works best for everyone involved and don't forget to download our FREE eBook for more helpful Tips!
