Everyone wants to feel loved and cared for in their relationship, but we all have different ways of showing love, as well as preferred ways of receiving love.<\/span><\/p>\n One way of showing love is through acts of service, which may be the preferred Love Language® for some people.<\/span><\/p>\n If your partner prefers the acts of service Love Language®, it can be helpful to know what this means. Also, get to know some excellent acts of service ideas you can use to show your love.<\/span><\/p>\n ‘The acts of service’ Love Language® comes from Dr. Gary Chapman’s “<\/span>5 Love Languages®.<\/span><\/a>” This bestselling author determined five primary Love Languages®, which are the different ways people with different personalities give and receive love.<\/span><\/p>\n Oftentimes, two people in a relationship, despite their best intentions, could be misunderstanding each other’s preferred <\/span>Love Language®<\/span><\/a>. After all, the ways of showing love are different for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n For instance, one person may prefer the acts of service Love Language®, but their partner may be attempting to show love differently. <\/span><\/p>\n When couples understand each other’s Love Languages®, they can be more intentional about showing love in a way that works for each member of the relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n Here is a brief overview of the Five Love Languages®:<\/span><\/p>\n People with the Love Language® ‘words of affirmation,’ enjoy verbal praise and affirmation and find insults incredibly upsetting.<\/span><\/p>\n Someone with this Love Language® needs <\/span>romantic gestures<\/span><\/a> like hugs, kisses, hand-holding, back rubs, and yes, sex in order to feel loved.<\/span><\/p>\n Partners whose preferred Love Language® is <\/span>quality time enjoy spending time<\/span><\/a> together doing mutually enjoyable activities. They will feel hurt if their partner seems distracted when spending time together.<\/span><\/p>\n Having a preferred Love Language® that involves gifts means your partner will appreciate the gift of having you attend an important event with them, as well as tangible gifts like flowers.<\/span><\/p>\n So, if you are loving the idea of someone showering you with lots of gifts, with or without any occasion, you know what your Love Language® is!<\/span><\/p>\n This Love Language® is seen in people who feel most loved when their partner does something helpful for them, such as a household chore.
