How to Express Love to Your Partner in Their Love Language

Getting to know someone and eventually falling in love with them is a magical feeling.

Once in love, there is a need for us to keep falling in love and reminding your partner of how much you love them. 

This is where the famous love languages come into play. Most of us know the 5 love languages that are in Gary Chapman’s book, published in 1992, but not all of us know how to show love in these languages.  

  • Words of affirmation

  • Quality time

  • Receiving gifts

  • Physical touch

  • Acts of service

We typically know how we want to be loved but often do not take the time to understand how the person we are with wants to be loved.

We tend to show our partners love in a way that we think they will appreciate rather than the way they will appreciate. 

How many times have you bought your partner a gift and then felt like they do not appreciate the gift? Often that is because you would have chosen a gift you think would be perfect for you to receive from your partner. But is that what your partner also wants? 

We assume that their love language is the same as ours. Unfortunately, this results in us feeling a little unappreciated. Mainly because we won’t be loving them the way they want to be loved. 

Knowing your partner’s love language is great, but you need to go the extra mile to know how you can love them in that language, as that is the best way for them to feel loved

One Positive Action

Unplug for Presence

We live in a world where our phones have become a constant companion. They sit on the table during dinner, buzz in our pockets on walks, and quietly beg for our attention even when we're face-to-face with someone we love. It's not that we don't care about the people in front of us, it's just that the pull of notifications and screens can easily chip away at genuine presence. What if some of your most meaningful moments are waiting just on the other side of putting that phone down?

The practice of Unplugging for Presence is simple but powerful. During one shared moment today, whether it's coffee with a friend, dinner with family, or a walk with your partner, put your phone completely away. Not face down on the table, not in your lap, but truly out of sight. When you physically remove your phone from the equation, you create space for deeper eye contact, better listening, and those spontaneous conversations that you'll actually remember weeks later. Real presence requires stepping away from everything else competing for your attention.

The benefits are immediate and mutual. You'll find yourself listening more deeply, noticing the little details, and feeling more connected to the person in front of you. Being given someone's full attention is one of the rarest gifts we can offer, and they'll feel it too. Your stress levels drop, your connection deepens, and you remember what it feels like to be fully engaged in a single moment. Over time, this practice strengthens relationships, deepens trust, and brings more richness into the moments we often rush through.

Today, choose one shared moment to go phone-free. Slip it into your bag, leave it in another room, or set it to "Do Not Disturb." Tell the person you're with what you're doing if you want, or just quietly give them the gift of your undivided attention. Be fully present, even if it's just for fifteen minutes. Notice how the energy of that interaction shifts when the screen is gone and the connection is real.
