Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

Take the quiz

I'm dubious about this. The spread seems too far, although I can see my top two working out like that. Maybe I'm just more demanding of something that was lacking and so that's pushing the spread up.

Or, you know, internet quizzes suck. :)

I read Dr. Chapman's book 10 years ago and it really resonated for me. I just took the quiz again because people change. Apparently not me in this instance.

Your primary love language is probably
Physical Touch
with a secondary love language being
Quality Time.

Complete set of results
Physical Touch: 12
Quality Time: 8
Receiving Gifts: 5
Words of Affirmation: 4
Acts of Service: 1


I'm not sure those were the exact same numbers I got then but my primary and secondary are still the same and they still make sense.

I do highly recommend the book.
