    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.

    Haha. Fun. Although, this has changed for me from time to time.

    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.

    I agree. I wish I had read it sooner also. But, my next lady, will definately benefit from my reading it.

    I hope this little quiz will help the relationship for everyone who took it . :-)

    Mine was physical touch and the BF was act of service...complete opposites. I only feel like doing something when I'm getting some and he only feels like getting some when I'm doing something. Sigh :sad:

    interestingly the way I give love is acts of service, but the way I feel love is words of affirmation. My husband 50/50 with physical touch and words of affirmation.
    So it gets tricky when I am doing acts of service to show love and he just doesn't see it how I see it :sad:

    Yes, I would say that it's pretty accurate but it's all pretty balanced out, except for the reciving gift. Maybe I just look forward to seeing my boyfriend more than opening up/receiving a gift from him.
