Knowing your Love Language, the things that make you feel wanted and cared for is just one Small Step in the Pursuit of Perfect Love.
Your love can sometimes get lost in interpretation when you and your partner speak different love languages. You could be expressing your affection towards your loved one; however, do you take time to think about whether you’re communicating according to your partner’s expectations? As Valentine’s day is approaching, we give you Valentine’s ideas and how to uphold a healthy relationship through your love language. Your way of expressing feelings of love could differ from that of your partner, which we call love language. To ensure you achieve a healthy relationship, we encourage you to employ the five love languages.
Getting to know the Love Language
Love language defines how you receive love from others and how you give it to them. It is expressed through affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch. Don’t run out of ideas; use these five love languages to get a gift for your special someone this Valentine’s day.
It was found that only 30% of U.S. adults even know about Love Languages. For something so vital to know, it should be much more common for love to not only begin but to flourish.
Words of affirmation
If you love the verbal acknowledgment of affection such as compliments, saying ‘I Love You,’ words of encouragement, empathy, and frequent communication, then this is your love language. You like to listen actively to your partner, empathize with their situations and appreciate them often. If this is also your partner’s love language, your partner will feel at ease with you, and this will promote a healthy relationship. As with any healthy relationship, communication is key to your well-being. Therefore, tell them often how much you love them, encourage them and employ frequent talks with your partner.
Quality time
If wanting to spend time with your partner actively is what you love, you speak the love language of quality time. It involves giving your undivided attention to your loved one without the distraction of phones, television, or other external factors. Quality time with your loved one helps you build a healthy relationship by bringing the two of you closer, through meaningful talks and doing recreational activities together or even simple things like a nap. This Valentine’s day, plan to share a recreational activity such as preparing a healthy meal together to bring the two of you closer.
Acts of Service
If you or your partner are a lover of actions over words, or you love it when your partner goes out of their way to do a task for you, this is your love language. These could be relieving them from hectic house chores or receiving delivery on their behalf. Perform a task for them as a Valentine’s day token this month and lighten up your romance with him/her.
Physical Touch
If you feel loved through body language, such as kissing, holding hands, cuddling, hugging, or getting intimate, your love language is physical touch. These acts serve as strong emotional connectors for you and your partner. Emotional well-being contributes to a healthy relationship. When you or your partner’s emotions are fulfilled through these actions, he/she will feel happy and loved, hence enhancing a healthy relationship.
Receiving Gifts
Gifts are a straightforward love language. If receiving gifts is your love language or your partner’s, then nothing says “I love you” more than gifting them health products that will transform their lives and promote healthy living between you two. For instance, if your partner complains of wrinkles or aging symptoms, gift them anti-aging skin care products or supplements from Nuvi Global to transform their signs of premature aging.
You may have one main Love Language or multiple
