Five Love Languages

    The five love languages are so important and knowing how they can help in any relationship, so you can get to know your partner better is great. The five love languages are Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch. The first one Words of Affirmation means you use words to affirm other people. The second one Acts of Service means people know actions speak louder than words. Receiving Gifts love language means what makes them feel most loved is to receive a gift. Quality Time is giving all your undivided attention to the other person. The last love language Physical Touch is nothing speaks more deeply than appropriate touch.

   My love languages that I discovered in order were Words of Affirmation, Quality time, Acts of Service, Physical Touch, and Receiving Gifts. Everyone’s love languages are in a different order. I know that Words of Affirmation is my strongest love language because I like when a person compliments me, tells me how they feel in person, and it affirms to me that they care. I love spending Quality time with people because it helps me to get to know the person better by doing anything together. I grow to love the person or relationship I am in more by quality time, I attach easier. Watching a movie with a person is fun.  In Acts of service I love this because when someone serves me I feel good and when I serve them we both feel blessed. Physical touch I believe is tied with service because as I have had more dating experiences it is nice. I know you have to use the RAM model to stay in line when dating seriously. Receiving gifts was last for me because I don’t feel that I need gifts all the time, it’s not as important to me as communication and quality time with the person. I believe that gifts don’t last as long.

    I have had many experiences with the love languages that have helped in my dating life where you might have similarities or differences with the person you date. I believe these 5 love languages can

I know that by knowing your love languages it can help you in a relationship to discover if you’re more opposite or more alike.
