Reading the 5 love languages of love some years ago really opened my eyes to all relationships (friends, family, partners). You don’t have to match your person entirely but knowing what fuels their love is so important to make sure their/your needs are being met. You of course can love a little of each basic point but knowing your key languages for each other can be game changing. The 5 simple ones are - physical touch (holding hands, cuddling, kisses) - quality time (undivided attention time together) - acts of service (cooking dinner, packing their favourite lunch for them, helping them with their work) - words of affirmation (I love you, you are so smart, thank you for being you) - gifts (can even be just the thought, like bringing home a coffee on the way home or a little flower off a tree) . . #heylover #lovelanguage #5lovelanguages #familylove #friendslove #partnerlove #sailinglovers #oceanlovers #bythesea #physicaltouch #affection
