    Here are my results. I think it was pretty accurate. I just think the quality time should be higher, but then again it's hard to spend time with him when he's across the globe!

    Through my life's experiences, I've found that this quiz is generally pretty accurate and if each person in the relationship keeps the language of their partner in mind, it makes for such a happier union.

    Yep, pretty accurate, me & my hubby always say we don't care where we are or what we're doing so long as we're together.....Quality Time & Physical Touch are #1, all the other stuff is secondary....

    I took this years ago, and my top two were Physical Touch and Words of Affirmation. I found this to be very accurate.

    So, how many of you actually act upon these languages? Do you talk your SO's language on a regular basis?

    Sounds pretty accurate for me. I have self-esteem issues so I need people to tell me that they love and appreciate me and show it by helping me rather than gifts. Quality time is kind of important to me, but being an introvert, it's not super high because I also need a lot of alone time.

    What's funny about this to me is that I do NOT like to be touched by people I don't know or with whom I am not close. But I am very touchy and grabby with boyfriends. And I do tend to develop a bond with people who do things with me (especially difficult things, like a tough hike) or who help me out with something, even if there's really nothing in it for them.

    I'm surprised by the low score on Words of Affirmation. I don't necessarily need to be told how awesome I am all the time, but I do think saying "I love you" is just as important as showing it, and I am big on being open and honest about thoughts and feelings. I think verbal communication is critical to a healthy relationship.

    when I replace the dude I left in February, I'm gonna ask him to take the test...LOL

    Great book. I'm kind of ashamed to show it in public, being that it is covered in hearts and flowers. Doesn't really go with my macho facade.

    Anyway, touch and words of affirmation.

    I read the book shortly after my divorce and wish I had read it sooner. My Love Languages are Quality Time and Physical Touch. I find that it is extremely accurate and quite eye opening when you really sit and think about it.

    I read this book, and I loved it. It was very eye-opening and made a lot of sense. I think all of them are necessary to some extent in a relationship, but the most important ones to me are Physical Touch and Acts of Service. I feel loved when my husband is affectionate and when he does things around the house and with the kids. My husband's love language is Quality Time and Words of Affirmation. He feels loved when we have alone time together and when I vocalize encouragement, support, and appreciation. We're both doing better speaking each other's love languages and have been much happier as a result.

    Words of Affirmation. But Physical Touch is #2 for both my husband and me. :bigsmile: (And that's why we have so many children. :laugh: )

    12 - Words of Affirmation
    8 - Quality Time
    1 - Receiving Gifts
    7 - Acts of Service
    2 - Physical Touch


    that is totally fitting. How I am talked to is a huge factor in relationships. I guess the thing that sticks with me is once someone says something, especially if it's negative, it can't be unsaid. It is always out there.
