Your Love Language Personal Profile


Interpreting Your Profile Score
The highest score indicates your primary love lan-
guage (the highest score is 12). It’s not uncommon
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 sel-


dom use to communicate love and which probably
don’t affect you very much on an emotional level.
Learn more about your primary 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 lan-
guages 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 an-
other. Of course, this isn’t a game with a scorecard!
The payoff of speaking 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, ultimate-
ly, 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 improve 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 excitement, concern, care, and
love. Physical presence and accessibility are crucial,
while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and de-
structive. Appropriate and timely touches communi-
cate warmth, safety, and love to you.

Quality Time
In Quality Time, nothing says “I love you” like full, undivided at-
tention. 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 activities, or the failure to listen can be
especially hurtful. Whether itʼs spending uninterrupted time talk-
ing with someone else or doing activities together, you deepen
your connection with others through sharing time.

Words of Affirmation
Actions don’t always speak louder than words. If this is your love
language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hear-
ing the words, “I love you,” are important— 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 encouraging words that build you up.

Receiving Gifts
Don’t mistake this love language for materialism; the receiver of
gifts thrives on the love, thoughtfulness, and effort behind the
gift. If you speak this language, the perfect gift or gesture shows
that you are known, you are cared for, and you are prized above
whatever was sacrificed to bring the gift to you. A missed birth-
day or a hasty, thoughtless gift would be disastrous—so would
the absence 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? Ab-
solutely! 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 commitments, 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.
