The 5 languages ​​of love

This article is published in issue 12 of Vanity Fair on newsstands until March 23, 2022

According to Gary Chapman, a couples therapist who may be swimming in a pool of coins like Scrooge Scrooge at the moment, there are five languages ​​of love.

The first is made up of words, poetic statements, constant verbal affirmations of the appreciation we have for the partner.

The second is made of quality time: when you are together you are really together, without excuses or distractions, building a moment of total connection and sharing.

The third is physical contact: cuddles, kisses, caresses, sex, everything that involves the union of bodies and that lets energy, desire and feeling flow.

The fourth concerns the giving and receiving of gifts, the gratification that passes through “material things”.

The fifth is that of the acts of service, and concerns those gestures that simplify the life of the partner, that accompany him in the daily management of commitments and take care of him in his efforts and responsibilities.

They are all valid, they are all special: which one do you like best? And which one do you use the most?
