Living the 5 Love Languages {Physical Touch}

Today is the second day of my series on practical ways to live out Gary Chapman's Five Love Languages with your spouse! Yesterday we talked about {Words of Affimation}. You can take a free quiz to learn what your love language is {here} as well as join the 5 week challange customized to you and your spouse. 
 
"This language isn't all about the bedroom. A person whose primary language is Physical Touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. Hugs, pats on the back, holding hands, and thoughtful touches on the arm, shoulder, or face—they can all be ways to show excitement, concern, care, and love. Physical presence and accessibility are crucial, while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and destructive."
 
{Practical Ideas}
  • Give your spouse a hug and a kiss before you do anything else when you get home.
  • Along with direct eye contact, touch or hold your spouse when they are upset about something or sharing a concern with you.
  • Give your spouse a massage
  • Sensual love coupons ;)
  • Hold hands and face each other when you are talking
  • Spicy dice
  • Cuddle with no alterior motives
