Learn to give your partner what he wants and not just what you would like to receive yourself!!!

The biggest communication problem couples face is whether their partners either speak different love languages ​​or show their love in different ways.

Love has 5 main languages: compliments, gifts, deeds that prove love, physical touch, and the time we dedicate to our loved ones.

To understand the language of love for one another, you need to communicate more about your desires and needs.

The better you understand how people show their love, the faster you can see all these gestures that make you feel loved.

When you start giving and receiving love in more individual ways, this creates an even deeper connection between you and the other half.

Here is a description of the five languages ​​in which loved ones can communicate:

1. Congratulations

If this language of love is the main thing for you, then most of all you like to hear confessions - and in large quantities. Hearing such words may make you feel really happy.

Examples of such compliments: today you seem particularly relaxed and happy / I just admire your ability to eliminate tense situations / What is the secret of your soup? It just tastes magical!

2. Gifts

It's not about being a materialist at all. It's about the desire to get something tangible that will remind you that your partner thinks of you when you're not with him, that he wants you to be happy.

At the same time, you like to receive and give gifts that you present to your loved ones "in the same way."

On the other hand, when you don't receive what you consider to be a good gift, it starts to seem like your partner doesn't care about you as much as you care about him.

3. Actions

If this language of love is yours, then you feel in the seventh heaven when you hear a phone call in the morning from a loved one who wants to say a few nice words to you before a hard day's work.

You will also feel happy when you return home after a stressful business trip and find the apartment neat. Then you realize that your partner cares about you.

And don't even tell me what's going on in your soul when your partner, knowing you've had a long day's work, is going to walk your dogs.

4. Physical touch

Most people think that in this case, it is a matter of physical intimacy (and to some extent they will be right), but this language of love, rather, involves regular, daily gestures that show affection.

It can be a foot massage when watching TV. It can be a slight blow to the back before falling asleep. Or he may wipe the sweat from his face while driving.

If physical touch is your language of love, then this is the best way to calm down. Moreover, tactile communication only enhances the feeling of love.

If the main language of your partner's love is time, then for him there is nothing more pleasant than the eye contact that is established between you when you are just sitting nearby.

Moreover, he can feel complete relaxation and satisfaction when, for example, you sit together in the same room and work on your projects, even without looking at each other and saying a word.

We need to remember that we usually offer love in the way we like to receive it. And that is the whole difficulty.

Learn to give your partner exactly what he wants and not just what you would like to receive yourself.
