Did you know that there are 5 ways to love a person? Every person on this earth has a different one.In total, there are five of them: praise&recognition, togetherness, gifts, helpfulness and tenderness.

The 5 languages of love all trace back to the American couples and relationship counselor Gary Chapman, who coined these languages.

We will introduce you to the different languages and hope that you will be able to integrate them into your daily life.

1. praise&recognition

People with this relational language praise those around them for all sorts of things, both possible and impossible. They often see special achievements, favors, gestures and kindnesses in others and also have the gift of saying so in the right words that come from the heart.

2. togetherness

People of this language express their love and appreciation through times of exclusive, attentive, open and present togetherness (dinner together, conversations, physical affection, morning or evening rituals, whole weekend without disturbance, etc.) ("Quality Time").

3. gifts

These people show their appreciation to the people they love through small gifts or attentions. The material value is not important (more important: thoughts, creativity, surprise, unusual ideas, reference to often unexpressed wishes and needs of the recipient).

4. helpfulness

The principle "If you need something, just say so, I will gladly do something for you", "What can I do for you?", "With what can I please you?", "Can I support you?" is among the statements of people in the love language of helpfulness. They help out of passion, helping is a matter of course for them and a service of love.

5. tenderness

Hugs and caresses for the partner give these people a very good feeling. Through touch they feel the quality of the relationship and they also show their love through tenderness. For them a tender touch counts more than the spoken words "I love you".
