Why is that? \ud83d\ude2e<\/p>\n
Is it because some people are destined to get along like zeppelins with a Lithuanian stomach, 1<\/a> and for others, good relationships are simply not destined?<\/p>\n Well, actually, no. Fate has nothing to do with it.<\/p>\n And if you think of your loved one as \"fated\" or blame your poor relationship with your parents on the horoscope signs... then it's time to stop doing that. Let's rely more on the science of psychology.<\/p>\n [tcb-script] jQuery(function($){ $(window).scroll(function(e){ scrollTimeOut = true; if ($('#orodykle').length){ if($(window).scrollTop() + window.innerHeight > $('1TP6Pointer').offset().top) { setTimeout(function(){ $('1TP6Pointer').addClass('onscreen'); }, 750); } } }); } ); [\/tcb-script]<\/p>\n What if I told you that there are five types of people? All. Children, grandparents, adults and even those teenagers whose hormones twist different parts of their bodies? 2<\/a> Five types. You are one of them. What do you think?<\/p>\n You may react in one of the following ways:<\/p>\n But your best reaction would have been a mixture of the two.<\/p>\n "Five Love Languages"<\/strong> is a book that was written 24 years ago and is still somewhere around the bestseller list. 3<\/a>\u00a0It was written by a pastor and an interpersonal therapist Gary Chapman<\/a>. He created the idea of five love languages.<\/p>\n I say "created" and not "discovered" because Gary Chapman is not, and never was, a psychologist. What is even more interesting is that he has not done any research on these love languages. And this is unusual in the world of popular psychology books.<\/p>\n Instead, knowledge about love languages has been gathered by talking to perfectly compatible couples and studying how they communicate.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Similarly, as the Lithuanian psychologist Lina V\u0117\u017eelien\u0117 repeats now. 4<\/a><\/p>\n There is almost no scientific research on the five love languages. <\/strong>The closest we've had to research is a 2006 analysis by Nichole Egbert of several previous studies that showed a link between language and reality. Unclear, but it's there. 5<\/a><\/p>\n This five love languages model seems to work. But as images showing how different our perceptions of love are and how to communicate our love to others in their language. It will likely help you as it helped me in my relationship.<\/p>\n So, if you want...<\/p>\n ...Read more.<\/p>\n Let me tell you about five love languages and why, really, it's nothing new. Your parents and grandparents probably already know these languages.<\/strong> You just had to find out.<\/p>\n Yes, I made this frog. \/\/ Photo by Vi Kontrimait\u0117<\/p>\n It is said that we all speak these languages. And yes, if you're wondering - we speak more than one language<\/strong> and we can learn them even if we have never learned them.<\/p>\n Have you seen couples or groups of friends who come to a coffee shop as a group, order coffee and then separately read magazines, work on the computer or phone?<\/p>\n Or, for example, couples for whom at least once a week is extremely important 6<\/a> sit down to watch a movie together, cook dinner in the kitchen or do something else together?<\/p>\n These people value time together.<\/strong><\/p>\n And yes, including friends sitting together in a cafe, but engrossed in their phones. On Facebook, I recently saw a long-running complaint from a woman about such behavior. However, this is only the language of love and friendship between these friends.<\/p>\n For this type of people, the most important thing is that you are together.<\/p>\n Yes, those two characters in the back of the cafe, stuck together and licking each other like kittens. Or, if you enjoy touching another person, that's you.<\/p>\n It is important to note that touching does not equal sex. For some 7<\/a> touch may seem very important to them. When really, it's just a natural need to express yourself through sex.<\/p>\n Touches can be varied.<\/strong><\/p>\n For example, a dad who likes to put his hand on his child's shoulder when talking to him probably values touch. Or the wife who always wants to be the little spoon in bed, probably likes touch too.<\/p>\n For such people, the best gift is a sincere hug, handshake, a friendly nudge on the side or a peck on the cheek. Touch is important to them.<\/p>\n Aha, her! Mostly in the form of an object, but can also be virtual 8<\/a> - it is important to give.<\/p>\n And don't assume that everyone likes gifts.<\/strong><\/p>\n Just like the first two languages, this one is not equally acceptable and understood by everyone. For example, I hate gifts. I never liked it and I don't like it today. 9<\/a><\/p>\n But others are important. Even if the gifts are not very useful. For example, Marge Simpson likes the car oil that Homer gives her. 10<\/a><\/p>\n Basically, if you want to show love to these people, don't spare money, time or ingenuity in creating gifts. It can be a pine cone from a beautiful forest and an interesting book.<\/p>\n This is probably the most important language for my parents (or at least the most important for my mother), because they always want to help others and appreciate being helped. 11<\/a><\/p>\n Job support can be as diverse as the jobs themselves.<\/strong><\/p>\n I can advise you to look at other people. And if you don't need help or if others don't appreciate yours - understand them; it's natural.<\/p>\n When communicating with people who need help, try to give them that help. Or, if you want to take the burden off yourself, then emphasize that, say, "This gadget will help you a lot" or "This person will help you."<\/p>\n It's everything that comes out of your mouth (or written letters) and goes into other people's ears (or eyes)... Eee... Okay, maybe it sounds a bit creepy. Forget this metaphor. 12<\/a><\/p>\n Personally, this is probably the most important language for me. Words of encouragement have always been important to me, whether they are full of information or just "You can, I believe in you."<\/p>\n How to say a supportive word to others? Well, yes:<\/p>\n The important part is not to repeat words of support over and over and say them "because it needs to be said."<\/strong> This, as I myself notice, repels.<\/p>\n This is why I hate motivational quotes on Facebook so much because they are not meant to be personal. They are designed to attract more buyers. Quotes on a shared Facebook wall are a mockery of words of support. As is constant positivity without criticism. 13<\/a><\/p>\n So - for people who like words, give these sweets like a child: not every day and not always the same.<\/p>\n However, you should have already noticed the general requirement of these love languages. No matter how you express your attention to another, it must be sincere.<\/p>\n Don't do something just because you have to. Do it because you want to. Don't show love in a way that is normal for you, show it in a way that is perceived by the other person.<\/p>\n Here I recommend reading the following two additions:<\/p>\n It is important to understand that we do not have only one single love language.\u00a0We naturally speak several languages.<\/strong>\u00a0The question is which ones.<\/p>\n Here, for example, words of support and time together are most important to me. But for my parents - help with work and gifts. But it's natural that we don't speak all the love languages because we are different. It's important to understand that what works for you may not work for someone else.<\/p>\n So, there are two ways to find out your language:<\/strong><\/p>\n You can do both. Personally, I prefer tests because they don't work on the horoscope principle - everything doesn't seem to fit.<\/p>\n Other people can observe or be encouraged to take this test.<\/p>\n My friend Giedr\u0117 suggested this test to her mother. And discovered that, under the thunderstorms, their languages simply did not match. Then both realized how to improve their relationship. And it did. 15<\/a> Another friend, by the way, also a Giedr\u0117... She suggested it to her husband. The relationship began to improve when they realised that their disagreement was not due to fate, but to their lack of understanding of each other's differences.<\/p>\n Both Giedres checked their love languages and those of their loved ones. And it immediately became clear to them why the relationship was so bad before the discovery of the Five Languages. With the new knowledge, they were able to strengthen their relationship.<\/p>\n But I do not tell about these speeches simply because I have nothing more to say. This story is a bit more personal.<\/p>\n Three years ago I was with a girl. In a couple. She was a fantastic girl and I loved her accordingly. Unfortunately, the relationship did not end happily. We broke up in Turkey, during our "holiday". After about a month of silent war, getting into an increasingly obvious "something is wrong" relationship vortex.<\/p>\n Now that I think about it, we broke up for ridiculous reasons. Just because we didn't even try to learn each other's love languages.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Only now do I realize how different our languages were:<\/p>\n ...And so on. Basically, the connection between us was probably only born because we were beautiful to each other and liked to sleep cuddled up. But no more.<\/p>\n So, it's not surprising that we broke up without understanding each other's languages. After a good start, the relationship fell apart. Until finally the lack of love killed the connection.\u00a0It was a lack of sincere, generous love.<\/strong>\u00a0After all, we loved, but we forgot that something else was important to the other.<\/p>\n Eh.<\/p>\n Well, on the other hand, my current relationships with the dearest people are better. Not only with girls, but also with parents and grandparents. I give them help, I don't take offense when they give me something, that's why our bond has become stronger.<\/p>\n It was the girl I mentioned who inspired me to buy this book. The book reminded me of a relationship.<\/p>\n If you want to restore an old relationship - look, maybe you lost it because your languages didn't match and you both didn't understand it?<\/p>\n If you want to strengthen the existing ones, do the same. Look at how you express your love. See how others express theirs. And try to learn each other's languages. Starting, of course, with yourself. 17<\/a><\/p>\n Love languages are not magic. New languages can be learned.<\/strong><\/p>\n Our relationship is not determined by fate, horoscopes or moon phases. They are determined by our actions. Do we show our love in a way that others can understand? And do we show it honestly? It is important.<\/p>\n And now, the task for you:<\/p>\n This way you can compare yourself with others and make sure that we are different. And you will also find out, if you haven't figured out yet, what your love language is.<\/p>\n So how do you love?<\/p>\nFive love languages and who invented them?<\/h2>\n

And this is quite interesting - it seems that languages exist, but why - no one can explain.<\/h3>\n
