DH & I read this book a few years ago after our therapist suggested it. We were in a rough patch & it really helped us understand what was important to the other.

Click above & take the survey then c&p or type your results below. You may be surprised by what your language is. Have your DH take it also!

My top 2 are physical touch & words of affirmation. DH's are acts of service & words of affirmation.

Eta: I'm in no way affiliated with this...just thought it would be fun :)

Re: What's your love language?

  • I got Physical Touch and Quality Time.  Both things make complete sense. :)  I can't wait for DH to take it when he gets home.

  • My mom gave DH and I this book when we got married. It's an awesome read and have loaned it to many friends! I'm words of affirmation and physical touch.
    There is also a Love Languages for Childten book that I read before even getting pregnant. I initially read it to help me understand my students better but also for our future LO's.
    awesome read for parents. I think it will really help with toddler years and beyond.
  • @kebert618 I noticed the child option on the online quiz...is there a separate book for kids? I could see that being very helpful as our lo's get older!

    I read the adult book several times. I noticed the first time I read it when we were having issues & I really took In everything that applied to myself, more so than DH. The second time we were in a really good spot & I picked up more on things for him...different perspectives. :)
    I've also noticed your language can change. (I think the book mentions this). Back then mine was quality time, now touch & words are higher than time...pre lo vs post lo changes I guess?
  • I got a 6 on all of them... How odd. Guess I am all of the above. Ha!

  • DH and I did this a couple years ago. We are both quality time, which works out well for us. :)
  • So funny my MIL just got us  this book for us for Valentine's Day. She got her and FIL too. I got acts of service and second highest was physical touch. Which is pretty spot on.
  • Thanks for posting. I signed up for the challenge too.

  • I got physical touch and words of affirmation. Spot on.

    Acts of service was low but I think that's bc MH does so much for our family. I don't wish he do more but I do very much appreciate how much he does.

  • We took this a few years ago too. I am words of Affirmation and acts of service, no surprise there. DH stayed up after I went to bed friday night and cleaned the kitchen. When I got up saturday and noticed he scrubed the stove top clean, I was more excited than when he gave me chocolates for V day. It's the little things that mean so much to me.

  • Words of Affirmation and Quality Time are tied for the top spot. I'd say that's pretty accurate.

  • @lokilahve
    Yes, there is a separate kid book. I plan to read it again soon!
    The 5 Love Languages of Children by Gary D Chapman et al. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0802403476/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_uPKatb1C51KRZ
  • I got quality time. Im guessing because every question talked about wanting gifts from H so I picked the only other answer. It needed more choices for sure!

  • Quality time was my top with words of affirmation & physical touch tied for 2nd.

    I 100% agree with QT and words of affirmation!

  • Oh I have this book... Mine is quality time. My hubbys is words of affirmation.
  • I got words of affirmation. Makes sense, I constantly need reaffirmation that I'm doing a good job or I start getting paranoid. Not so much in my love life though but definitely with my work life. Everything else is tied except for touch which only got a 1, I don't like to be touched except cuddling with LO.
  • I'm tied on acts of service and physical touch. With quality time and words of affirmation bringing up the rear.

    Sounds about right for me. I'll have DH take this later.
