We all have different ways of showing our love to others and a desire to be shown love by others in a certain way. I have read about the 5 love languages and I think that the author was spot on in their thoughts on the topic. If we learn our partner's language and they ours then we can avoid the loss of the relationship because our partner can feel loved and appreciated the way they want to. Before entering into a love relationship though, you must seek to find happiness in your life without a partner so that you don't look to a partner to fulfill your desire for happiness.
