Love Languages (How to show love)
What is a love language? A love language is a way you show love to people and a way other people can feel loved. There are 5 love languages here they are in no particular order.
- Gifts
- Acts of Service
- Quality Time
- Words of Affirmation
- Physical Touch
Everyone has a little bit of all of them. But there will be one or two you lean toward the most. Let’s go through each and explain them more.
Gifts. These people feel love when they give someone something or when they get something. This type is just as happy with little things like a letter as with a big gift. (Example)
Acts of Service. These people feel love when they do something for someone or when a person does something for them. This is the person who doesn’t ever really sit down because they are always cleaning or doing something. Simple acts can work for this person as well. (Example)
Quality Time. This type feels love when they are spending time with someone or when someone is present and spends time with them. They literally just want to be around you most of the time they don’t even care what you are doing just if it’s with you. (This is the type I lean toward the most) (Example)
Words of Affirmation. This type feels love when they are giving people encouragement and when others encourage them. They need to hear that you care out loud. (Example)
Physical Touch. These people feel love whenever they touch others like on the hand and when others touch them. These are the huggers. (Example)
Knowing someone’s love language can be very helpful. Being able to let someone know they are appreciated not only scores you brownie points but can help you to make all your relationships stronger.
