4.  Acts of Service

5. Physical Touch

I took the love language test the other day and those were my results.  For anyone who knows me, the results are predictable.  I even asked Aaron what he thought my very last one on the list was and he guessed right- physical touch.  I am just not a touchy-feely person at all.  Most days my “Heather space” is more than arms length.  There are even times when it is hard for me to  hold hands with my fiance.  I have a hard time dealing with people who do not know personal space or people who feel the need to touch the person they are talking to.  I deal with people like this on a daily basis and believe me, it takes LOTS of patience.

Aaron took the test as well.  His number one was physical touch.

That teaches me a lot of things.  It shows me that I need to be more aware of Aaron when he wants to hold hands or hug.  When he feels bad, I need to put myself aside and put him first.  When he is sick, as he is now, I should baby him more rather than standing 10 feet from him asking him if he is okay…annoyed.

I wonder how he puts up with me….
