The 5 Love Languages



So, I personally never heard of this before, have you guys?  The 5 Love of Affection.  Which is basically how to know when a guy likes you.  So I guess, guys don't just tell you in an immediate way, like pull you off the corner, and say, 'hey you pretty little thing, I like you', this is how you know when a guy really likes you or not.  But I don't know about you guys, I mean I think this pretty much nailed it though.  So keep reading to check it out!



1. Quality Time
So basically, in other words, he wants to spend deep quality time with you.  Your full, undivided attention.  Like going to the beach, fishing, golfing, or dining out in you favorite restaurants, anything small to big, that includes, he just wants to spend more time with you. 


"In the vernacular of Quality Time, nothing says, “I love you,” like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there—with the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standby—makes your significant other feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed dates, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful."

2. Gifts
Not to be mistaken with being materialized.  So the perfect gifts can symbolize, that you are being cared for, and loved.


"Don’t mistake this love language for materialism; the receiver of gifts thrives on the love, thoughtfulness, and effort behind the gift. If you speak this language, the perfect gift or gesture shows that you are known, you are cared for, and you are prized above whatever was sacrificed to bring the gift to you. A missed birthday, anniversary, or a hasty, thoughtless gift would be disastrous—so would the absence of everyday gestures."

3. Touch
A simple gesture as in a hug, pats on the back, holding hands, and thoughtful touches on the arm, shoulder, or face, can show excitement, concern, care, and affection.

"This language isn’t all about the bedroom. A person whose primary language is Physical Touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. Hugs, pats on the back, holding hands, and thoughtful touches on the arm, shoulder, or face—they can all be ways to show excitement, concern, care, and love. Physical presence and accessibility are crucial, while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and destructive."

4. Words of Affection
The language of love speaks for itself.  The three simple words i love you.

Actions don’t always speak louder than words. If this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, “I love you,” are important—hearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten."

5. Act of Service
Helping you around, doing favors, lending stuff is an act of service.  According to the book The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman.  This is his definition.

"Can vacuuming the floors really be an expression of love? Absolutely!  Anything you do to east the burden of responsibilities weighing on an "Act of Service" person will speak volumes.  The words he or she most want to hear "Let me do that for you." Laziness, broken commitments, and making more work for them tell speakers of this language their feelings don't matter."



Well there you have it.  Like I said, it was pretty much solid.  Tell me what you think about in the comments below, I would love to hear, what you guys think.  Or what signs guys really show, when he really likes you.  And if you want to read the book, because I'm pretty sure it's quite accurate, it's The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman.
