What is your love language in a relationship?

Gemini 3

There’s a good probability that acts of service are your love language, Gemini, if you feel most loved and cared for when someone takes on a duty so you have one less thing to worry about. By observing how you express love to others, you can determine your love language as well. In fact, you may determine someone’s love language by observing what they do for you. If you observe that your spouse frequently picks up the garbage or refills your water glass when they realize it is empty, that may be their method of communicating to you that they value simple acts of kindness from others and would like you to do the same for them.

Gemini, keep in mind that if you aren’t very self-aware, the love language of acts of service can be a little difficult. Having this particular love language can make you more prone to letting expectations interfere with an otherwise pleasant and healthy scenario. While any relationship should be about balance, where both partners’ needs are satisfied equally, this love language may make you more sensitive to this. In other words, you might self-destruct your relationship if you feel like your partner should be doing X or Y for you instead of allowing them decide how to demonstrate their support. Relationships that are out of balance occur when one spouse has unreasonable expectations and feels that their partner must live up to them in order to show their love. Nobody wants a partnership that involves a long list of responsibilities.

Consider how you would feel about a new hire at work who felt entitled to certain privileges before demonstrating their dedication to the firm. In a similar vein, your partner should feel that their displays of affection are voluntary and at their will rather than at your command.

Additionally, be sure to express to your partner the services you appreciate. They can then order their tasks accordingly. Say something like, “I haven’t been getting much sleep lately. Would you mind walking the dog in the morning so I can sleep in a little longer.” to illustrate why you value their assistance. Speaking with a therapist can make it easier for you to articulate your requirements if you find it difficult to do so. If you’d rather be more subdued, consider telling your spouse about a moment when a friend or member of your family did something for you that really meant a lot to you. Say thank you to your partner for their efforts. It sounds obvious, but if you’ve been dating for a while, you might not have noticed some of the things they do to make you feel like their first priority. After discussing which acts of service are important to you, watch out for when they actually perform them to make sure they never feel taken for granted (or something similar). Do not rely on your partner to understand your thoughts. Although, yes, it’s the thought that matters, speak up if doing so would make you feel particularly warm and fuzzy inside. Do not completely rely on your partner to take over for you. Maintain your own obligations so your partner may live their life as well, even if they have your back. Dumping your daily responsibilities on them will only lead to a breakup.
