"I hate talking on the phone," he said. "So I don't do it. I don't know why that hurts people's feelings." I joked, "Because when you don't keep in touch, we think you don't love us anymore." "Oh shit," he laughed, and since then, he's been better at reaching out. It's worth noting that your love language might vary depending on the person, too. My brother might speak a different language in a romantic relationship than he does with family. And while I need quality time with my partner and family, I don't necessarily need quality time with friends to feel like they care or vice versa.

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.
