Love Languages🥰!!
The story
Do you believe in the love languages ✨👀? I personally think they make things easier to categorize😊. And there are intricate meanings and experiences that stem from each love language. Plus, the interpretations of them can be very different for different people🤷🏻♀️❤️.
Love languages: Quality time, physical touch, gift giving, words of affirmation, and acts of service.
And a single person could have multiple love languages, or different levels of each love language📈📉.
My first, that I can think of is quality time⏳. The time I spend with my partner would make me feel appreciated and loved. And knowing that they have their schedules figured out to plan time with me would be most appreciated😍🙏🏻✨(I'm single BTW, 2025).
My 2nd love language that most people don't have as their 1st or 2nd(that I'm aware of)... Is words of affirmation. Most people say that they believe actions only... I also believe in actions... But I personally wanna date someone who knows how to express how they feel about me whether that be positive or negative feedback depending on the situation. I like the whole poet sh*t and the kinda person who isn't afraid to share a silly dad joke(even when they're not actually a dad)😂!!
I'm gonna skip the others and just go to my least favorite... Acts of service... I just can't🫠. I am aware of my aloofness and I've been around friends and family who have this love language as their number 1 or number 2. I just can't. I can't fully understand when someone needs my help unless they verbalize it... Which is frustrating for me cause I haven't met anyone with this love language as their 1 or 2 who is good at asking for help rather than expecting someone to see them struggling and automatically helping them. I'm just not that person... Nor would I want that for myself🙃.
Anyway... I'm super, super curious about other people's opinions and comments on this subject... Cause it's fascinating to me, whether one believes this or not.
Also, a side note ....... FOOD IS NOT A LOVE LANGUAGE!!!! Food items technically categorizes under acts of service or gift giving. Just wanted to put my opinion of that out there before someone tells me that their love language is FOOD🤣!!

honestly, i see where you're coming from!! love languages can be like a framework for relationships, right?? 👀 my partner and i find it helpful to "speak each other's language"!! it's like fine-tuning emotional intelligence 🎶
quality time makes so much sense!! it's about the investment in togetherness... knowing someone prioritizes time with you really is heartwarming ✨
words of affirmation are powerful too!! who doesn’t appreciate some positive reinforcement?? everyone loves feeling validated... but yeah not everyone’s a poet 😆
i get why acts of service might feel tricky... not everyone’s gonna read your mind; sometimes direct communication is key!!
but yeah, food is definitly not a love language lol it fits better under gift-giving or acts of service like you said 🍕🎁
anyway, it's cool to hear different perspectives!!! 😊
