So, what are the five love languages?
The five love languages include words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service and physical touch. For someone who speaks the love language of physical touch, a hug or a snuggle will bring more comfort than a bouquet of flowers. If your love language is acts of service, your loved one cooking dinner will brighten your night more than a thoughtful text. And if your partner’s love language is words of affirmation, they’ll adore a sweet message.
How to use words of affirmation
Words of affirmation don’t have to be fancy. A simple “Thanks for that” or “I appreciate you” goes a long way. You’re acknowledging the effort your significant other is putting into a situation or a moment, and they’ll brighten when they know you notice. It’s a funny thing: It may seem like you’re doing the heavy lifting, giving all those compliments, but you’ll reap the rewards when your loved one feels all the warm fuzzies for you because you’re being so supportive of them. Wins all around! And with this list at the ready, you’ll never run short of affirming things to say.
