Words of affirmation

People with this love language feel most loved when they hear their partner verbalise how they feel.So, ifyour partner's love language is words of affirmation they might appreciate receiving a volume of love poetry, handwritten love letters, an affirmation journal or you can get creative with the DIY and make them a compliment-a-day jar!

Acts of service

Those whose love language is acts of service appreciate small gestures of love and effort on a consistent basis. So, is there anyway that you can get them a gift that elevates their daily routine? For example, if they love coffee, why not get them a new coffee machine, or a specialty roast and their favourite syrup, so that they can have artisanal coffee at home every day.
