“I would say my love language is quality time and also words of affirmation. I think expressing love for the people I love is not always what I need, but what they need. By shifting your actions in order to benefit the person that you love versus yourself, you are benefiting yourself because you’re nurturing your relationship which is just going to make you a happier person. I say “I love you” in my family; I feel like a lot of people might not get that ‘I love you, Good night’ saying and then they take that into their relationships when they’re adult because then they’re afraid to say I love you, too. I think with a hug, or sometimes even just talking and being vulnerable, is a way of saying I love you.”
