Are You Talking My (Love) Language?

So, your next anniversary is approaching. And he/she didn't really appreciate the handmade gift you gave them last year. The awkward smile said it all. Now, what? You don't want to screw this up again. You gave them that gift with the best of intentions - surely that's what matters, right? Intention?

Or, maybe you've found yourself enveloped in the hands of love, swooning over your new lover and tirelessly looking for ways to show that you appreciate them, but you just can't quite figure out what really gets them. Regardless of which of the above you relate to, the 5 Love Languages can definitely help you in loving and caring for others in a way that will mean something to them.

Gary Chapman's book The 5 Love Languages takes its readers on a journey through love and its intensities, and thoroughly breaking down the different ways we all show love to others. He categories modes of affection as:

The 5 Love Languages

1. Words of Affirmation

2. Acts of Service

3. Receiving gifts

4. Quality time

Relationships take a lot of work, but by understanding your own and your partners love language, you can begin to show appreciation for each other in a way that really resonates and creates an impact.

An endless list of couples commend the 5 Love Languages theory for rescuing their relationship, helping them begin to truly understand their partners needs, and ultimately cater to them.
