Love Languages

When I write about love stuff, it sort of feels weird, but today is Valentine’s Day. What better time to talk about love languages than this, right?

There is nothing more awesome than finding what makes your spouse tick. What excites them?

If you haven’t read the book, The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman, I would recommend you read this book soon.

Maybe this is your Valentine’s Day gift to each other if you haven’t read it.

This book states that the 5 Love Languages are:

Words of Affirmation
Quality Time
Receiving Gifts
Acts of Service
Physical Touch


This is one of the first books Jasmine and I read together and I’m so glad we did. We quickly noticed that this book pinpointed what our love languages are.

Mine is definitely Receiving Gifts and Jasmine’s is definitely Quality Time.

I’m not saying that you play to just the one that they are, but it’s awesome to know what your spouse might need more of along the way.

Have you read this book?

What would you say your love language is?

    I haven’t read the book but know the premise. I am affirmation followed by a close second of touch. My husband is definitely quality time. I’m learning to do that more.
