But now I'm more quality time. Scott's is definitely acts of service. I do pretty good with doing things for him. Once I learned it was his love language, I also made it a point to do things for him (with or without being asked) because it became clearer to me why he got upset when I didn't.

Maybe the reason I'm so difficult to love (I say that tongue in cheek) is because I'm all over the map at different times.

I remember that hot mess moment.<br />The test I took said I was Gifts... which makes me feel like it sounds so materialistic - but I feel like I like the point of 'remembering things' - being made that you feel special.

They weren't done at all when I was growing up (neither home nor school) so it's completely alien to me! Also my acts of service often go unnoticed. We really needed to read this book! I also listened to the Gretchen Rubin podcast on the issue, it didn't really have any new news in it for me but it was a good reminder.Rachel ¦¦ A Nesting Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08457683109401016555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-61096529706150002332016-10-18T05:35:40.138-05:002016-10-18T05:35:40.138-05:00I've always found the love languages interesti...I've always found the love languages interesting and I've recommended looking into it for so many friends of mine who were struggling at times to feel understood by their counterpart. And I think it really helps, because once you know how someone shows love (and how someone needs it shown) you can recognize when those things are done more readily, and you know to make more effort in other ways that are needed.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330910749491673996noreply@blogger.com
