Ways to Love: Time, Touch, Words, Gifts, Help
There are many languages of love.
When you love your beloved with your love language, they may not “get" the message.
When others love you with their love language, you may not “get" it.
When we forget to love ourselves, we may not even know what love is.???
Experimenting with loving is the key.
When you do not know how to love or feel loved, experiment.
When you do not know, try something new and observe what works.
Never assume you are not worthy, because it will block the flow of love.
Love is a flow.
Love is a language.
Love is a gift.
Love is an experience.
When at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.
When you don’t know how to love, look, listen and learn.
When there is upset and anger, fear and judgment, love will be resisted.
When you quit on love, you will block your mind and heart from receiving what is given.
Love is complex because it is defined in a variety of ways.
Some feel love as an emotion or chemistry.
Some hear love as words of affirmation and tone of voice.
Some see love as service, helpfulness and acts of kindness.
When we try to “get” love our way and “get” love their way, we miss their giving.
When we wish to hear loving words, but receive a gift, we may not hear it.
When we want special time alone and get a rose instead, we may not feel the love.
Everyone receives love differently in their own unique way.
Try offering all five love languages and observe which one works the best.
1) Gifts or 2) quality time together?
3) Affection and touch or 4) acts of service?
5) Affirming and loving words?
For those who don’t combine love languages well….
Consider a special card and flowers with loving words written inside.
Take making your beloved their favorite meal or restaurant food with hugs and kisses too!
Try listening and watching to see what they respond well too.
The other tip is to notice what they do for you to show their love!
What you do for others is usually the way you want to be loved.
Gifts, Acts of Service, Affection and Touch, Affirming Words, and Quality Time.
See 5LoveLanguages.com for assessment and more info.
Make sure you let them know what pleases you the most as well.
For some of us, having our love received is our greatest affirmation of love.
When we know our love works by teaching and touching, we feel loved.
Love yourself and one another and I know I am Loved.
Smiling with unconditional Love for You!
