on love.

since we love love here at it's all happening, i did a little quiz and wanted to share it with you.

what is your love language?


you can take the assessment here.

the best part is that i did the old-school-circle-your-answer-with-a-pencil-in-the-back-of-the-paperback-book-i-swiped-off-my-parents'-bookshelf quiz.

each question reads from the wife's point of view about her husband. i just subbed ryan gosling for the word husband. seemed to work just fine.

i'm exactly what you'd expect.

an honest tie between words of affirmation and physical touch.

{seems about right to me}.

words of affirmation.
actions don’t always speak louder than words. if this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. hearing the words, “i love you,” are important - hearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten.

{hello, childhood}.


physical touch.
this language isn’t all about the bedroom. a person whose primary language is physical touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. hugs, pats on the back, holding hands, and thoughtful touches on the arm, shoulder, or face—they can all be ways to show excitement, concern, care, and love. physical presence and accessibility are crucial, while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and destructive.

{touch equals caring in my book. it's sacred}.


the love languages are a dead ringer! try it. learn a little something new about yourself today, friends. the other three languages are quality time, receiving gifts, and acts of service.

cheers to love. and relationships. and the importance of knowing how you need to be loved. we're all different.

but it always comes down to one word: love.

*"pinteresting" love in my free time here, here, and here.
