The age-old adage “absence makes the heart grow fonder” falls incredibly flat within the quality time love language.
In fact, I imagine those who use quality time to communicate love find that phrase an embarrassing copout. The quality time love language – one of Gary Chapman's
five love languages
– is ultimately about spending uninterrupted and distraction-free time together.
It’s friendship in its purest form, complete with a mindful presence.
Okay, I’m just gonna come out and say it.
The physical touch
love language
is not just about sex.
Don’t get me wrong, a little horizontal boogie is good for the soul. And your relationship.
However, there are a number of other ways to show love using physical touch.
Let’s be honest, the gift-giving
love language
gets a bad rap.
Words like “selfish” and “materialistic” are often associated (by non-gift-giving types) with this love language, because it suggest you want to receive (as well as give) “stuff” from your partner as a gesture of their love.
And it’s time to put these misconceptions to rest.
If you clicked on this article expecting a blast on the gift-giving love language, you’ve come to the wrong place. It’s time to vindicate the gift-givers among us.
Before we start in on exactly what Extraverted Intuition is, let’s revisit the basics of cognitive functions, shall we?
What good is personality theory if you can’t put it into practice? Below we’ll walk through the specific dynamics of an
IM电竞中国官网 and INTJ relationship
as coworkers, lovers, and friends.
Not everyone is cut out for the color-coded and highly regimented New Year’s resolution. Whether you have too many ideas or you’re feeling burnt out and looking for a gentler resolution system, here are five resolutions for you this upcoming year.
1. Practice Gratitude
We’re right in the thick of the holiday season. Do you love traditions or internally groan at the prospect of repeating a celebration? Everyone has a slightly different idea of what makes up an ideal experience during this time of year. Read on for each personality’s most-loved and most-hated aspects of the holidays.
INFP
Love: Possibility is everywhere! This is a normal phenomenon for the
INFP
, but there’s something about this season of goodwill and peace on earth that is especially appealing and heart-warming.
It is no secret: we are wired for stories. Fiction allows us to stress-test and learn vicariously through relatable characters and fascinating worlds.
If you’re an
IM电竞中国官网 personality
, chances are you’ve been disappointed by other articles that point to Michael Scott or Ron Weasley as your fictional personality counterparts. As engaging as these characters are, I’m guessing that you don’t want to be associated with the universally inappropriate boss or the insecure sidekick.
We’re officially closing in on Halloween and whether you’re looking to flex your newfound craft skills, find inspiration for an original costume idea, or simply save a few bucks DIY-ing a last minute costume, we’ve got you covered!
For me, the word “scam” always drums up an image of a balding, pushy, used-car salesman. You know the type. He uses phrases like “deal of a lifetime!” and “I shouldn’t be doing this, but just this once …” You’re totally psyched, you did it! You wore him down! Only to sign the papers, drive the car off of the lot, and realize you’ve been hopelessly outdone. Bamboozled. You were effectively swept up in a manipulating moment and now you’re stuck with the short straw.
