• Identify your own love language and that of your partner
• Show appreciation and affection in ways that speak to each other's love languages
• Consistently make an effort to show love and affection

It's important to note that love can take many forms and that the types of love can overlap and coexist in different ways. The type of love that one experiences can change over time, and it's possible to feel different types of love for different people and at different times in one's life.

Remember, everyone has different love languages, and it's also possible for someone to value multiple love languages. By reflecting on these prompts, you can gain insight into what type of love and affection resonates with you and how you can best express love to others.

"It's taking the time to truly acknowledge how other people express love. So that kind of awareness. That's what this tool is for -is to build awareness to recognize, "ohhh, they're trying to show me that they care about me.'" -Michelle Wickman
