What is a love language?

Relationship expert Kelley Nene told Briefly News that the concept of love languages was Gary Chapman's attempt to create understanding among partners and solve relationship issues.

She further explained that there are five love languages:

  1. Words of affirmation.
  2. Acts of service.
  3. Quality time.
  4. Gift-giving.
  5. Physical touch.
"Knowing not only your love language but your partner's can help you understand how you like to receive love and how best to show it to your partner."

The man's answer had many social media users cracking up in the comment section, with some feeling he did not understand the question.
