You feel most loved when others offer words of praise, recognition, and appreciation. You feel most engaged when you are heard and positively affirmed by others — and you always try to return the favor to the ones you love. On the other hand, you find it most hurtful when you are not "heard" or when you're unproductively or unfairly criticized. You value loving texts and notes (as long as they're genuine) and like to send and receive them regularly. You just like to be reminded how special you are, and to remind others the same!

Words of affirmation

As someone whose love language is acts of service, you find it most attractive when your significant other shows you that you two are a team. Whether that's helping out with chores, helping you plan a vacation, what have you — having them offer to help out always reminds you that you are loved. You also always try to return the favor. Your pet peeves are when people are flaky and lack follow-through. You want to be with someone reliable, responsible, and loyal, and you also want to be that for them. You need a team of team players.

Acts of service

To you, the little things _ARE_ the big things. You appreciate small gifts and gestures that mean so much more — it's how you like to be reminded that you're someone's priority. You also love giving gifts, but take it very personally if the receiver doesn't react the way you wanted them to. Underwhelming reactions to gifts and forgetting important occasions are two things that'll send you over the edge.

Giving and receiving gifts

For you, spending focused, uninterrupted time with your partner is how you feel most loved. You like to create special one-on-one moments with them, whether it's a weekend getaway or just staying in and watching a movie together. Going long spans of time without seeing each other and seeing them be constantly distracted (e.g., checking Instagram while you're hanging out) are _huuuuuge_ no-nos for you.

Quality time

For you, physical touch — whether it's sex or just hand-holding — is the biggest indicator of love. You need to be physically close to someone to _feel_ close, and you're _SUUUUPER_ into PDA. You constantly read into body language to gauge what others are thinking or feeling, and going long spans of time without intimacy or any sort of human touch quickly makes you lose interest, grow cold, and sometimes even build resentment.
