Whether you are looking for the next great suggestion to share with your book club or have questions about your relationships (or lack of), you
need to get your hands on Gary Chapman’s bestselling book, The Five Love Languages (2008). According to
Chapman, each of us has a “love language," a preferred way that we not only
express our love to others but also how we like to receive it.
Basically Chapman states that there are 5 main languages of
love: quality time together, physical touch, gifts, acts of service, and words
of affirmation.
You can easily relate to all of these characteristics
depending on the context, however your love language is made up primarily of
one of these five. I think it’s especially important for couples that would
like to get married/be in a long-term committed relationship to read this book
and have an honest conversation for many reasons. For example, it’s no wonder that a relationship can struggle
when partners don’t share the same love language nor invest the time to
understand the other’s way of expressing love.
Can you guess what my unique way of expressing love to
others is? I will give you a hint and let you know that it is not physical touch. I am sure that those of y’all who know
me personally are probably thinking, “tell me something new, Natu.” If you are
itching to know what your love language is, feel free to take a quick quiz by

better understanding of what your language really means and how it can impact
others. Then make sure to tap your partner on the shoulder (especially those of
you whose love language is physical touch) and sing “let’s talk about love,
baby.”
