Speaking the Love Language of Quality Time

Quality Time is simply the love language of spending time solely for the other person. To spend such time with a loved one can really get through the hearts of people who speak this language, my wife and son included.

To people speaking other love languages, the funny thing about Quality Time is it's intangible. If it's intangible, how can we give it? That guestion have driven many people mad.

Someone whose love language is Words of Affirmation will find Quality Time people absolutely difficult to spell. While poems and songs can make world class singers envious, these won't mean much to the Quality Time person unless these are recited or sung by the loved one himself, and with no one else around to distract that magic moment.

The words "magic moment" spells heaven to the Quality Time person, not the originality, eloquence or tune of the poem or song. The Words of Affirmation person can find that hard to understand.

The Physical Touch person may go crazy with a Quality Time person too! After all the hugs and kisses, the Quality Time person still asks for more. Guess what that is? Yes, magic moments.

It isn't the hug nor the kiss nor the intensity of it, but the time spent hugging or kissing that gets through the heart of the Quality Time person. In fact, the hugs and kisses are not the most important at all! Just stay there, be still, and savor the magic moment, whatever that means.

For people whose love language is Acts of Service, you're close but not quite. When you mix coffee for a Quality Time person, know that it isn't the taste of the coffee nor the act that count as much as the time you spend being in the room or house of your loved one.

They can forget how your coffee tasted, but they remember the magic moment with you at home. When you're an Acts of Service person, go ahead but make sure you perform the service yourself. Don't delegate :)

For people whose love language is Receiving Gifts, it isn't your gift as much as the time you spent buying it, wrapping it and giving it to your loved one. Don't buy a gift and let LBC deliver it. You and your loved one lose the magic moment that way. Deliver the gift yourself. It's the time you devote that makes it to your loved one's heart.
