Your Love Language Personal Profile

Interpreting Your Profile Score
The highest score indicates your primary love
language (the highest score is 12). It’s not un-
common to have two high scores, although
one language does have a slight edge for
most people. That just means two languages
are important to you.

The lower scores indicate those languages

you seldom use to communicate love and
which probably don’t affect you very much on
an emotional level. Learn more about your pri-
mary love language and how to put it to use
next to the corresponding badge below.

Important to Remember
You may have scored certain ones of the love
languages more highly than others, but do not
dismiss those other languages as insignificant.
Your friends and loved ones may express love
in those ways, and it will be beneficial for you
to understand this about them.

In the same way, it will benefit your friends and

loved ones to know your love language and
express his affection for you in ways that you
interpret as love. Every time you or they speak
one another’s language, you score emotional
points with one another. Of course, this isn’t a
game with a scorecard! The payoff of speak-
ing each other’s love language is more of a
feeling of “this person understands me and
cares for me.” This translates into better com-
munication, increased understanding, and, ulti-
mately, improved relationship.

If you have not already done so, encourage

your friends and loved ones to take The Love
Languages Profile. Discuss your respective
love languages, and use this insight to im-
prove your relationships!

Physical Touch
A person whose primary language is Physical
Touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. Hugs,
pats on the back, and thoughtful touches on
the arm—they can all be ways to show excite-
ment, concern, care, and love. Physical pres-
ence and accessibility are crucial, while ne-
glect or abuse can be unforgivable and de-
structive. Appropriate and timely touches com-
municate warmth, safety, and love to you.

Words of Affirmation
Actions don’t always speak louder than words. If this is
your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the
world to you. Hearing the words, “I love you,” are impor-
tant— hearing the reasons behind that love sends your
spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are
not easily forgotten. You thrive on hearing kind and en-
couraging words that build you up.

Quality Time
In Quality Time, nothing says “I love you” like full, undivid-
ed attention. Being there for this type of person is critical,
but really being there—with the TV off, fork and knife
down, and all chores and tasks on standby—makes you
feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed ac-
tivities, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful.
Whether itʼs spending uninterrupted time talking with
someone else or doing activities together, you deepen
your connection with others through sharing time.

Receiving Gifts
Don’t mistake this love language for materialism; the re-
ceiver of gifts thrives on the love, thoughtfulness, and ef-
fort behind the gift. If you speak this language, the per-
fect gift or gesture shows that you are known, you are
cared for, and you are prized above whatever was sacri-
ficed to bring the gift to you. A missed birthday or a hasty,
thoughtless gift would be disastrous—so would the ab-
sence of everyday gestures. Gifts are heartfelt symbols to
you of someone else's love and affection for you.

Acts of Service
Can helping with homework really be an expression of
love? Absolutely! Anything you do to ease the burden of
responsibilities weighing on an “Acts of Service” person
will speak volumes. The words he or she most wants to
hear: “Let me do that for you.” Laziness, broken commit-
ments, and making more work for them tell speakers of
this language their feelings don’t matter. When others
serve you out of love (and not obligation), you feel truly
valued and loved.
