The 5 Love Languages have been around for a long time and I have read and studied them quite a lot so today I am going to share more on this topic. I am giving an overview of the 5 languages and my thoughts on how understanding them can help you in communication and all relationships in your life. I believe that understanding how you need to receive love is a huge step in discovering yourself and what you want in relationships - from parents and partners. It can point out patterns for how you have felt rejected or unloved and it can also help you understand and build connection with your children and friends too!
