In his own words, here's how Chapman <a href="http://www.any-read.net/read/3814/Pages_2.html">breaks down the five love languages </a>in his book: The five languages are pretty straightforward, but here's a brief description of what each of them mean: <ul><li>Words of affirmation : Expressing affection through spoken affection, praise or appreciation. </li><li>Acts of service : Actions, rather than words, are used to show and receive love. </li><li>Receiving gifts : Gifting is symbolic of love and affection. </li><li>Quality time : Expressing affection with undivided, undistracted attention. </li><li>Physical touch : It can range from having sex to holding hands. With this love language, the speaker feels affection through physical touch. </li> </ul>

Getting to know a person in a romantic relationship is a gradual process. Over time, you learn more and more about them, including their likes and dislikes, and how they think. Later on in a relationship, maybe you've wished your partner could read your mind and know what sets you off, and what you respond well to.
