February is the festive month of love, how have you been celebrating it so far, t-mates? Although it’s often raining outside, we’re sure your heart will be warmer when you surround yourself with loved ones ❤️.
Talking about love, are you familiar with the 5 love languages? This buzz topic, introduced by a pastor Gary Chapman, has been around for more than 30 years and remains popular until today.
According to Chapman, everyone has a primary language to show love and to receive love. These five languages are words of affirmation, act of service, quality time, physical touch and receiving gifts.
Some people believe that knowing these 5 love languages can make relationships stronger. Not only is this theory useful for romantic relationships, but also for platonic relationships.
They also believe that if their loved ones don’t speak the same love language, then they will feel dissatisfied in their relationships. In essence, they feel that it’s important to learn each other’s love language to minimize disagreements.
On the flip side, some people don’t believe in love languages. In their views, they wouldn’t demand the other person to change for them. Instead, they focus on making themselves content first so they can share their joy to other people they love.
The concept of 5 love languages remains debatable until now. Yes, love is always complicated, isn’t it? Now, what do you think about it, t-mates?
Do you believe in love languages or those things don’t really matter to you?
