What's Your Love Language?

Have you heard the phrase "love language"? It's a phrase I've recently discovered, and I think I picked it up from Love Island!

Love language is about the words and actions you express when you're with the person you love.

For me, I'm a very touchy person, when I'm next to my husband, I'll put my hand on his arm or sit close enough to cuddle up to him. Touch is part of my love language. I also notice that I say, "I've missed you," and when I do I mean I've missed his presence, not something he does for me, like making coffee, which he does brilliantly!

My husband's love language is different. He expresses love by making amazing food. He takes gorgeous ingredients and creates the most delightful meals, making me feel every bite is full of love! There is a slight downside, though, if we have had words and he is cooking, the food tastes bland, like the most important ingredient is missing! It can also be hard on the waistline, as to reject his food, in his world is the same as rejecting his love! Complex isn't it!

Another way he shows his love is by opening the car door for me. He walks around to the passenger side, opens the door, and hands me the seat belt. It makes me feel loved. It's not about the words he speaks but the actions he takes and the meaning behind them.

I'm inviting you all to share your verbal and nonverbal love language. What is it that you do to express love for your other half? 

Please keep it clean—saucy is okay, but let's be mindful of social media guidelines.
