Their are 5 Languages of love. We each do and accept love in distinct ways. While all apply to everyone certain ones hit a stronger cord. The 5 are:- Physical Touch
- Quality Time
- Gift Giving
- Acts of Service
- Affirmations
I thought I was physical touch and acts of service both giving and receiving. However the Planner stated that I was a bigger giver of affirmations than I was of service. I had to think about that and had to admit she was right. I use to be a giver of acts of service. It was easier than stating how I felt, but over the last 8 years I've worked hard to be able to verbalize how I feel. While I still like doing I know that saying how I feel is much more important to me in my overall emotional health.
I still thing in receiving I'm a physical touch and acts of service. Touch has always been big with me and I love when the Planner makes me a sandwich. Dinner is nice, but for some reason a sandwich says I love you to me.
How about you what are you?

For me, it is Physical touch and affirmations...
Do you and The Planner define love in the same way based on those 5 ?
I loved that book, btw... Made so much sense.
Annie - I don't know that we had a definition for it. We're both physical that's for sure.
Beatie's book is great.
Time is a big thing for me - and touch. Words can be empty, but actions speak for a 1000 words.
