1. Words of Affirmation: Actions donât always speak louder than words. If this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, âI love you,â are importantâhearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten.
2. Quality Time: In the vernacular of Quality Time, nothing says, âI love you,â like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being thereâwith the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standbyâmakes your significant other feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed dates, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful.
3. Receiving Gifts: Donât mistake this love language for materialism; the receiver of gifts thrives on the love, thoughtfulness, and effort behind the gift. If you speak this language, the perfect gift or gesture shows that you are known, you are cared for, and you are prized above whatever was sacrificed to bring the gift to you. A missed birthday, anniversary, or a hasty, thoughtless gift would be disastrousâso would the absence of everyday gestures.
4. Acts of Service: Can vacuuming the floors really be an expression of love? Absolutely! Anything you do to ease the burden of responsibilities weighing on an âActs of Serviceâ person will speak volumes. The words he or she most wants to hear: âLet me do that for you.â Laziness, broken commitments, and making more work for them tell speakers of this language their feelings donât matter.
5. Physical Touch: This language isnât all about the bedroom. A person whose primary language is Physical Touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. Hugs, pats on the back, holding hands, and thoughtful touches on the arm, shoulder, or faceâthey can all be ways to show excitement, concern, care, and love. Physical presence and accessibility are crucial, while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and destructive.
