I remember thinking it was interesting and very true. I am not one for gifts (probably because I practice sustainability) but I do enjoy quality time. My partner doesn’t care for gifts either but he is definitely one for affection and acts of service. I am mindful of my “language” and I am also conscious to speak in my partners “language” too. I think we do a pretty good job of it.. I wouldn’t have said yes to his proposal otherwise!

I wish they would include this book in marriage prep because I agree it can do a wonder in a marriage. It is so easy for us to limit our perspective and it just takes a little good literature and a gentle nudge to widen our understanding of love;)

It reminds me of a book I just read called The Gratitude Diaries. It’s all about how being thankful and doing things for others really makes you more content and happier. It truly makes us happier to give rather than to receive. I love the idea of keeping these 5 love languages in mind. I might just write them up and stick them to our refrigerator as a reminder to do these things regularly 🙂

That way we could see each others love languages. My husband and I both make it a point to do something each other to target each others love languages at least once a week, or more. My husband is quality time and mine is acts of service. Yeah I’m sure it hasn’t saved every argument from happening, BUT, it has aliveated quite a few because we know each others languages. As you can tell I’m an avid believer in love languages. 🙂

Ha ha! Aw that’s so cool. And I quite agree. It could totally be a sub-category right? 😉
