Thanks for reading. I can't take any credit for these ideas. They're from Dr. Gary Chapman a psychologist in the US. But no matter where you live these all apply to everyone. Some of you may find that only one of these languages fits you. Others may see more than one with one main one and others that also apply. But here's the real challenge. Once you know how you speak love the real test is to figure out how your partner does. Only then can you speak love to them in a language they understand. As this site translates for all of us here so Dr. Chapman tries to help us interpret the language of our loved one. Enjoy and I hope it helps. Do you know the 5 Love Languages? Here they are: l. Words of affirmation – using words to build up the other person. “Thanks fortaking out the garbage.” Not – “It’s about time you took the garbage out. The flies were going to carry it out for you.” 2. Gifts – a gift says, “He was thinking about me. Look what he got for me.” 3. Acts of Service – Doing something for your spouse that you know they would like. Cooking a meal, washing dishes, vacuuming floors, are all acts of service. 4. Quality time – by which I mean, giving your spouse your undivided attention.Taking a walk together or sitting on the couch with the TV off – talking and listening. 5. Physical touch – holding hands, hugging, kissing, sexual intercourse, are all expressions of love. Out of these five, each of you has a primary love language which speaks more deeply to you than all the others. Discovering each other’s language and speaking it regularly is the best way to keep love alive in a marriage.
