    I'm physical touch all the way, even with close friends I'm very prone to hugs and linking arms. But on the other end of the spectrum, if I don't know you or trust, I don't want to be touched. I learnt about Love Languages through Rhett and Link years ago and it completely changed the way I looked at relationships. It was really cool to hear you talking so openly about it Raya. x

    I heard about these five love languages too like 3 years ago and i really felt like i finally understood why I like giving thoughtful presents so much, or why I like taking care of people who are dear to me. I have been with my boyfriend for almost 3,5 years now and I also feel like understanding each other's love language makes a huge difference in understanding each other! Great video Raya, hopefully this will help a lot of people understanding themselves and their partners/friends/family better :)

    I talk about this so much!! I love getting people to think about it and talk the quiz and compare to me and this is so important with any kind of relationship and so even with my friends I've talked about it before. My top 2 are quality time and physical touch but I also tend to give a lot of words of affirmation particularly because a lot of people aren't necessarily into physical touch. And sometimes they shift over time so I've probably taken the test like 3 times and that's super interesting to me to see how things change.

    I did the test one year and half ago and I did it again today. With no suprise, it changes a lot, my result are much more uniform 5 for the lowest and 7 for the highest! It makes sense a lot, because thanks to the test I realize they were several type of love languages, and so I less care about which one my partner use because now I can see it all where as before no. Moving together explain a lot also, your couple is in a different dynamic and it's make change the love language too.

    My husband and I are both Acts of Service first and then Quality Time. For me, the best way to show someone you like them or love them is to do something for them. Especially something that will make their life easier. Running an errand, filling up the car, etc. This is what I prefer from others, as well. Words of Affirmation and Physical Touch were really low on my list and Gifts was only moderately higher. For those who are familiar with Myers-Briggs, I'm an INTJ and my husband is an INTP.

    I need all the touch. Just give it to me, bring it in. I tend to be the sneaky acts of service and words. Gifts not really my thing, I suppose its because I don't really value them much that I tend to think everyone is like that. Clearly not, but you know, not my first instinct. I'd rather we go shopping together, its more fun that way.
