Of the five languages of love, which one makes you feel the most loved?
Words of Affirmation
Acts of Service
Quality Time
Physical Touch
Giving Gifts
I'll go first. I feel most loved when someone has a deep discussion with me and uses words of affirmation. Physical touch comes next.
Giving Gifts.
Material things, yes. But, that's also what I see the other choices as.

Words of Affirmation .. so long as they weren't just words being said shallowly to gain something. ONLY if they were true and sincere.
From my perspective, if your partner felt the union was pure and true, and so assertions were made through affirming words to you to confirm to you that they regarded you highly .. then all the other things would fall into place, since this would alter your perspective into believing that a person who would say these words sincerely to express their dedication to you ... would make you want to both give and recieve the 4 other languages of love below ...

Without positive reinforcement of the others true love for you .. I cannot see how the other four would have any value.
Acts of Service - this would just then be an act, and not to make your life better for you.
Quality Time - without loving and positive words about you and the relationship, how could any time be quality.
Physical Touch - would just be sex, or routine holding hands .. without words of supporting love, it couldn't ever be love-making
Giving Gifts - would then just be generic .. if a person didn't claim and reinforce their love to you through positive words of dedication, then a gift from them would be to gain something back in return, mostly likely "sex", since sex is bought through exchange when love isn't involved.

And though, people would process this within theirselves to make a determination as to which language would speak to them the strongest .. I'm willing to conclude that ALL women really want the words of affirmation, even if they don't comprehend it themselves.
If you listen in here to all the females struggling in their relationship issues ... alls they really are needing and wanting from these men is for the man to "tell" them they love them, "tell" them what they are feeling, "tell" them they are beautiful.
We hear things like, "He said (this), what did it mean" .. all the while, they man may be treating her in any way within other conditions, such as hanging out with his mates, not having a job and expecting her to support him .. women come in here to validate that they would tolerate just about any kind of treatment from a man ....... but, if the man isn't talking to her about how he feels about her and the partnership .. then she's in here terribly confused.

ACTS of Service
I feel it encompasses the other 4. I'd rather be shown than told that I am loved. Empty words hurt more than anything.
