5 Languages of Love?

[LeilaniJoi]

Definitely a book I'll be looking for Can't wait to see how my SO scores though I bet I could guess pretty easily.

Mine turned out as I expected it to O.o

No surprise there. Doing things with my boyfriend and making memories is super important to me.

I actually have the book (in Polish, though). The whole religious aspect put me off a little, but it's a good wy to explain that and why different things are important for different people. I think words of affirmation and Help (Acts of Service) are more important to my boyfriend and he sometimes doesn't understand what my problem is when I say that we don't talk enough ("But we talk all day!" "No! Making a shopping list, is not talking!")

My SO happens to sort of suck at giving presents, so I don't much look forward to them What I do love is how he always helps around the house.

I find it kind of interesting that, of all the people who've posted their results so far, we've pretty much all had Quality Time as a primary, or close secondary, love language. Wonder if that says something about the type of people who are most successful in long-distance relationships?

[Dziubka]

I think it's pretty normal to like spending time together?
Maybe I'm just judging other's by my own standards, but... who wouldn't take spending time together over getting a small present?

I guess if someone put a lot of importance on gifts and words, LDR would be easier for them, because you can do both from a distance. Whereas quality time or physical touch? Not so much.

Sounds about right to me. Funny how words and physical touch are tied. In an LDR, you get looong periods of written/verbal communication, with some intense physical touch in between..

@Dziubka: I do think you can get quality time together if you're long distance. I feel happiest when we have time to cam together and just goof around on the internet and having lots of those moments where we're giving each other undivided attention.

I guess I'm just wired differently. Talking on the phone is super important to me, when we're apart, but I need active (in person) quality time, to be happy in my relationship. I'm obviously not cut out for LDR at all. If just simply couldn't do it, if we weren't able to spend in-person quality time together as often as we do.

Pretty accurate =p

My boyfriend and I actually have the book. If I remember right my primary is words of affirmation.

It really helped us when we were going through a tough patch. Turns out we both sucked at the other's love language, which was about 85% of the problem. Once we understoof that we were sailing smoothly.

That's pretty accurate...you don't have to do something or give me something...just hold my hand. :-)

I really want my guy to take this quiz... but not sure of the best way to approach it. Just coming out and asking probably not the best approach for him lol

Any suggestions?

Quite accurate, I like it when my SO spends time with me, and tell me of how I am for him and most especially when we're together, from holding hands to kissing or just having his presence is priceless.

I have read the book and love it! It really helped me understand why my SO and I weren't feeling 100% since moving in together. His primary love language is Physical Touch; mine is Words of Affirmation. It helped him to understand why a comment on how pretty I look in a photo or a note about how much he cares for me make me feel so amazing. It also helped me realize that I need to give him more backrubs and hugs because that's how he feels loved. This book has really changed our relationship for the better!
