Years ago when I was taking a marriage class, we studied the book The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman. I thought that the book made some good points, and I also believed that it could be beneficial to not only people in marital or romantic relationships, but to everyone.

According to the book, The Five Love Languages there are five love languages: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch. You can read more about them on the the companion web site here.

While all of the languages are important to me to some degree, some are more important, as is the case for most people. While reading, I pinpointed what I thought was my primary love language, but I had never taken the test to see whether it confirmed my thoughts.

I took the test online yesterday and was surprised to see that there were two high ranking languages with the same amount of points for me. I knew that “acts of service” was a primary for me, but I was surprised to see that “quality time” ranked just as high. Here are my results.

Interested in finding your love languages, then take the test yourself here.
