Love Languages Explained

10.13.18

Confession: I’m obsessed with taking online quizzes. Learning more about yourself through 5-10 simple questions, even if it is just silly, is so fun! Love Language quizzes are no different. Not only is it fun, but it’s informative! Lol I’m a nerd, if you didn’t know. My work friends and I took several of these one afternoon in our downtown office and honestly it was a blast. Game night with quizzes, anyone?!

Knowing your love language will help you communicate better with just about everyone in your life. It doesn’t have to be a boyfriend or girlfriend! When you and your person are literally speaking different languages, it makes it pretty difficult to get along, agree, or grow your relationship. Learning my love language and reciprocating that to people I care about has changed my life. Everything’s easy breezy baby 😉

AnyWHO I’m highlighting the 5 love languages below, with some examples of things you can say or do to make your loved one feel all the feels. Also, at the end, I’m sharing some of my favorite quizzes below for you to take and test your personality against 5 love languages to see which one fits you best.
