The 5 Languages of Love

[Slacker]

I want most acts of service, which is what I get most so that's for the best.

I think I give most words of affirmation and quality time.

I think the ones I do the most are words of affirmation, physical touch, and quality time... but I also do the other two as well.

Words of Affirmation: 5
Receiving Gifts: 3

I would say almost all acts of services that I enjoy from others relates to Si.

[Joy]

Needing quality time + enjoying gift giving = taking someone out being perfect.

Strangely, I thought I would get words of affirmation and gifts higher on the list.

But it's true that the acts of service thing I guess seems more important to me.

I can't think of good examples though of acts of service. Does anyone have any? Is it always like taking out the trash? I'm trying to think of think of things my bf has done.

doing anything practical that either needs to get done or that the person thinks the other person wants done. In this house it means doing the laundry (and then pointing out how much he did and how he was happy to do it) or cleaning up or running to the dry cleaners when I mention that the sweater I want to wear is still there. Or making dinner. Doing things without being asked. Stuff like that. He used to get up with me in the middle of the night when the twins were babies and change their diapers and get them out of their crib to nurse. Which was totally helpful.
