Ways to Celebrate Romance Month and Speak Your Partner’s Love Language

Romance Month arrives this august, and a fun and romantic way to celebrate your love could be speaking their “love language.” Dr. Gary Chapman has defined five “love languages” through which partners communicate their love to each other. The five love languages are receiving gifts, acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, and physical touch. Each of these languages can be used to help you make romance month special for your partner. Use these ideas to help speak your partner’s “love language” this month

Leave Love Notes – Words of Affirmation

Being reminded of the love in a relationship can brighten anyone’s day. That’s why this Romance Month, you can brighten your partner’s day with a handwritten note to affirm your love and commitment to them or maybe just to bring a smile to their face. Writing down your love is the best way to express love to someone whose love language is “words of affirmation.”

Enjoy a Long Weekend Away – Quality Time

While there are several ways to celebrate Romance Month at home, one of the more adventurous ways to celebrate the occasion is to take your significant other out on a weekend getaway. Set your phones to silent and drive or jet off to a romantic or personal destination to make your Romance Month one to remember.

Go Dancing – Physical Touch

Take your love’s hand and lead them to the dance floor. Rest a head on their shoulder and step in time to a fun classic like Casablanca’s “as time goes by” or a more contemporary track like “thinking out loud” by Ed Sheeran. From the living room to the club, the beauty of dance is that you can do it anywhere.

Send Flowers – Receiving Gifts

Nothing is as iconically romantic as receiving flowers. One of the five love languages is receiving gifts, and flowers are one of the most romantic gifts you can give. If you want to make your bouquet more personal and meaningful, you can learn to speak the Language of Flowers. Each color and blossom has a unique meaning that can help you add a little more personal touch to your gift.

Tackle the Chores Together – Acts of Service

A Month is a long time, and with 31 days, the month offers a lot of opportunities to lend a helping hand. In the spirit of celebrating the little things, you could take the time to go out of your way to do your partner’s chores. Show them how much they mean to you by lending a helping hand at home, and they will surely be reminded how much you care, they will be truly touched and grateful while feeling loved and appreciated.
