What is your love language?

According to Gary Chapman the five languages of love are:


  • Quality Time
  • Words of Affirmation
  • Acts of Service
  • Physical Touch
  • Gifts
If you go to 5lovelanguages.com you can take a test to find out what yours are. I wasn't surprised to find out that my top two were quality time and acts of service. I love spending time with Chad. It really is the very best. He is my best friend and so much fun to be with. It doesn't have to be exotic and expensive either. A Jeep ride with the music blasting; banana grams; rock band; a walk around the block; or even running errands. Time with Chad is my love language and avenue to happiness. Chad has never backed away from telling me he loves me. In fact, once I actually told him he tells me to much and to stop. Boy was that a mistake - I truly missed it. But one of the best ways he shows me he loves me is with acts of service. Doing the dishes if they are in the sink; sweeping and vacuuming the floor if it needs it; letting me have the towel closest to the shower so I stay warm; letting me lay my head on his shoulder when sad - and letting me cry, just to name a few. This next two weeks I will be working on learning Chad's love language and trying harder to use it. I will keep you updated on the progress but am actually looking forward to showing greater love to Chad so he too can feel as loved as I do.
