The 5 Love Languages
People receive love through five languagfes:
-
Acts of Service Physical Touch Words of Affirmation Receiving Gifts Quality Time​
The inbound love messages slowly fill up a person's "love tank". When the love tank is full, the world look positive, and small irritations hardly impact the person. When the love tank is low or empty, the world looks negative and the same small irritations seem overwhelming,
Most people have a preferred way to receive love. If the preferred love language is missing, the person's love tank can go empty, even if love messages are being received in the other love languages.
-
To find out our preferred love language, consider what language we use to tell others we love them. For example a person may give gifts to others. It is a good indication they would like a gift.
-
If your looking for your love language, ask others around you. When do they see you really brighten up? Is it when you get a hug? Or when someone speaks words of affirmation to you?
The real fun is to find ways to give love messages in the person's preferred language and watch for the change in their attitude, especially in handling day to day irritations.
To learn more on your own, I recommend Gary Chapman's book: The 5 Love Languages.
