Hubby and I each took the Languages of Love Quiz. Basically, the love languages are the areas that you feel love the easiest and need to have fulfilled in order to feel like you are truly loved by your spouse. There are 5 areas and they will be ranked by score at the end of the quiz. The areas are: Acts of Service, Physical Touch, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, Words of Affirmation.
Wouldn't you know it, each of our top area was Physical Touch! He scored a 10 (out of a possible 12). Mine was a 9 tied with Acts of Service. It's a fun little quiz to take. I was a bit surprised by the ordering of his love languages, though. It's been great for us to know about each other.
I also recommend getting the book
to better learn about yours and his love language. For example, maybe his love language is gifts. If so, you're going to have to look at spending money on gifts as a long-term investment in your marriage. Dr. Chapman has a lot of really great suggestions and ways to speak your partners language. He also has books geared toward children,
teenagers
, singles
, men
and more.I'm off to go speak to my hubby in his love language.
Love the love languages! My husband is touch too! I am acts of service.
ReplyDeleteI love that you share clean, helpful information! I never feel awkward reading your blog- and that's saying A LOT!
ReplyDeleteLove that quiz! My hubster and I are both quality time. However, I think we both have a separate lust language. When it comes to the bedroom, we are more about acts of service and words of affirmation because we love sharing and enacting fantasies. Of course physical touch is a given when you're talking about lust languages.
ReplyDeletemine was a 10 for touch, and 8 for acts of service. my hubby is definatly a touch person, but i'd love it if he could express love more through acts of service-- i'm pretty sure his score on that one will be very low...
