What the actual duck is she on about with that whole love language thing
Love languages are basically the way we express our affection/love - there was this thing developed around the ‘5 love languages’. Found this on an article about them:
‘The five love languages are five different ways of expressing and receiving love: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch. Not everyone communicates love in the same way, and likewise, people have different ways they prefer to receive love. The concept of love languages was developed by Gary Chapman, Ph.D., in his book
The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts, where he describes these five unique styles of communicating love, categories he distilled from his experience in marriage counseling and linguistics.’
I think everyone uses them all to a varying degree, and the trick is also to understand your partner’s ‘language’ too. Not sure I put that much stock in them but they can be useful for understanding yourself and your partner’s needs.
