Love languages

[makemineadecaf]

I know this isn't everyone's thing but after a lot of disconnect we've done the love languages test. Unsurprisingly physical for me is the least important but the most for him. Struggling to find some level of compromise.

What was your highest one? Physical doesn't have to be sex, it also includes cuddling, snuggling, kissing, etc.
My husbands was physical and quality time and my was acts of service so I have made sure that I stay in more in the evenings and spend time with him snuggling on the sofa and he brings me a cup of tea in the mornings.

Words of affirmation was my highest and physical was his. We're basically opposites

I think that's fairly common in most heterosexual relationships to be honest.

Is there any sort of physical touch that you particularly enjoy? Holding hands maybe or walking arm in arm? You could start with something small like that and build up from there. I assume he is also trying to get better at words of affirmation? It is really hard to develop new habits like these but definitely worth it. Me and my husband are much closer now we understand what each other needs.
