Question

In his book The Five Love Languages, Gary Chapman explains that we give and receive love in five ways. Each way is a “love language”. When two people speak different love languages, they can be unhappy because they don’t understand each other. To form strong relationships, we need to understand how we express love and how people we love express their love, too. So, what are the five love languages?

1. Words of affirmation This love language uses words to show love. “I love you”, “You look good in that dress”, “You can always make me laugh”...

2. Quality time It means giving someone our full attention. Not watching TV together, but talking and listening to each other. Or just going out for a walk together.

3. Receiving gifts A present tells us: “He (or she) is thinking about me.” The gift does not have to be expensive, perhaps their favorite chocolate or a beautiful leaf you found.

4. Acts of service “________A__________” People speaking this love language do things for you, for example: helping you with the heavy work, getting you a cup of hot tea, singing a song to relax you, etc.

5. Physical touch Patting shoulders, holding hands, hugs...without these, people who speak a “physical touch language” will feel unloved.

We all are loved, but sometimes we just don’t know it. That’s because we don’t understand other people’s love languages. But it’s good to start with yourself. Do you know your own love language?
