The Love Languages You’ve Never Heard Of: Beyond the Famous Five
Introduction For decades, Gary Chapman’s famous model of the five love languages—words of affirmation, acts of service, receiving gifts, quality time, and physical touch—has provided a framework for understanding how we give and receive love.
