The main five love languages

Often people with this love language are sensitive and are very aware of their surroundings. They often encourage others, and know just what to say to cheer up others, hoping that others will do the same for them.

The main point of this love language is the act of undivided attention, without distraction, or outside interference. People with this love language value one-on-one time and meaningful conversations.

This love language is all about valuing when someone goes out of their way to help you or make your life easier. Its things like helping care for you when your ill, making food or coffee for you, or just helping out around the house when you’ve had a rough day. This love language is for people who believe actions speak louder than words.
