Understanding our love languages – both ours and our romantic partner’s – can drastically inform and improve our relationships.

 
Understanding the five main love languages, and what category you fall under, can help you get a better sense of how you navigate the highs and lows of love, as well as helping your partner to understand your unique approach.

Then, become aware of where they stand, too. You might just find some serious clarity in the way you view yourself and your significant other.

First, let’s find out exactly what the five languages of love are!
 
 

Here Is an Overview of the 5 Main Love Languages:

 

1. Words of Affirmation

This first of the five love languages is all about verbal reinforcement. Your partner can kiss you or surprise you all they want, but the most important thing for you is to hear that they love you. If you’re sad, you need them to acknowledge they’re being supportive by telling you.

You feel the most beautiful when they pay you a compliment. Likewise, you offer words of encouragement to your partner and you shower them with praise to let them know how much they mean to you.
 

 
 

2. Acts of Service

You feel most defeated when you’re doing all the work. But when your partner suggests to do the grocery shopping, surprises you with a home-cooked meal, or finishes up the laundry, it’s a big relief on your end.

It’s also your way of letting your partner know you appreciate them, too.

You feel loved when they let you know they see and respect all of the hard work you put into the home, your family, planning a trip, etc. This language relies heavily on doing things to keep the balance, and acknowledgement of when the other is doing a great job.
 

3. Receiving Gifts

Whether it’s out of the blue or for a specific occasion, knowing someone understands what you love by going out of their way to write a love note, pick up your favorite flowers or leave little store-bought gifts for you to find, receiving something tangible is important to you.

At the same time, you find yourself expressing your feelings of gratitude, remorse or love through a little gift, too.

4. Quality Time

Quality time is #4 out of the five love languages. Making time to meet for lunch, planning a quiet weekend at a bed and breakfast, or choosing to turn off the TV and spend the evening catching up is your idea of pure happiness and balance in a relationship.

You prefer your partner to give you their time over their words, a love letter, or spending an hour making a homemade dinner for you. Canceling plans or zoning out when they’re supposed to be listening are some of the most hurtful ways your partner can fail you.

5. Physical Touch

This fifth love language involves both intimacy in the bedroom as well as everyday physical connections. From a kiss goodbye to a kiss hello, a long embrace to a soothing rub on the back, feeling your partner’s physical presence is important to you.
