Are Your Love Languages What You DIDN’T Receive From One Parent?

60% of you said that your love language was what you DIDN’T receive from your parents as a child (from 120 people on Instagram).

I form part of the 40% who said it IS what they received as a child. Then I thought about it deeper. Did I receive my love languages from BOTH parents? No. The parent I struggled the most with didn’t give me the words of affirmation and physical touch that I would have liked. 

Perhaps the inner child part of me is still craving from my partner the love languages that she didn’t receive from that parent?

Does this resonate with you?
