The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts by Gary Chapman

I am always up for a personality assessment. I’m certain I put a bit too much stock in them, like some people with astrology, but they are fun and get me asking questions about myself and my behavior (and my spouse and his behavior)!
This was a good read. And once we took the quiz ourself it was easier to see how once our “love tanks” are feeling a bit low, we often need to turn to friends to help us fill again enough to communicate love in an effective way. For instance, I am dominantly acts of service- so when our relationship is strained I try to DO more to make him feel loved (dishes, cook more, make his fave snacks), but he would just try to be more physically present (his language is touch- “bopping” me on the nose, a kiss on the cheek, petting my hair).
I’m excited to keep up the recommended exercises to see if we can better learn the habit of speaking each others’ languages!
