• words of affirmation -actions don't always speak louder than words. If this is your love lang, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, I love you are important -hearing the reason behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten.
  • Quality Time. In the vernacular of quality time nothing says I love you like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there -with the tv off, fork and knife down and all chose and tasks on standby -makes your significant other feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed states or the failure to listen can be esp hurtful.
  • Acts of Service. Can vacuuming the floors really be an expression life? Absolutely! Anything you do to ease the burden of responsibilities weighing on an “Acts of Service” person will speak volumes. The words he or she most want to hear: “Let me do that for you.” Laziness, broken commitments, and making more work for them tell speakers of this language their feelings don’t matter.
  • Physical Touch. This language isn’t all about the bedroom. A person whose primary language is Physical Touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. Hugs, pats on the back, holding hands, and thoughtful touches on the arm, shoulder, or face—they can all be ways to show excitement, concern, care, and love. Physical presence and accessibility are crucial, while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and destructive.
