Even though The 5 Love Languages, by Gary Chapman isn’t new it’s a classic. The heart of the matter, according to the author, is that we all have a way we like to receive love from others and that is usually the same manner in which we reciprocate our love. However, others in our life may not speak that same love language and as a result, we should not only identify our own love language but also those of others we love.

I took this quiz many years ago and discovered I didn’t fit into any one of the three areas but instead was an even split between all three — touch, gifts, and praise. My husband laughed out loud when he heard the results of my quiz. I defended myself and said, “What? It makes me well-rounded and easy to please!” He quickly replied, “Or it makes you high-maintenance.”

So, if you dare, check out this great widget on my blog (bottom right hand column) to take the quiz. Invite your spouse or significant other to discover what their love language is too. (Thanks fellow blogger, and occasional guest poster, Joy, for the tip on the great love languages quiz widget.)
