Love Languages (Gary Chapman)

Love Languages, developed by Gary Chapman, describe five ways people express and interpret love: Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch. Understanding these helps improve relationships by recognizing individual preferences for giving and receiving love. For example, some feel most loved through kind words, while others value spending focused time together. Recognizing and respecting each other’s love language fosters better communication, deeper connection, and greater emotional fulfillment. Essentially, it’s about understanding that different people feel loved in different ways, and meeting those needs strengthens relationships.
