Default Love Languages for SPs

Quality Time, Words of Affirmation, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, Physical Touch.

For Quality Time, I think that's always in the top 3 of anyone's list so let's not include that.

For me as an ISTP it's 1. Receiving Gifts and 2. Acts of Service and 3. Words of Affirmation

I've come across ESTPs and they seem to be 1. Acts of Service 2. Words of Affirmation and 3. Physical Touch.

not sure about ESFPs.

ISFPs I think it seems to be 1. Acts of Service 2. Physical Touch 3. Receiving Gifts.

I kinda see acts of service as equivalent to gifts.

So I'd rank them 1. physical touch 2. acts of service/gifts (if personal) 3. affirming words 4. gifts (if nonpersonal, ex flowers)

I think they're all important for everyone though, to varying degrees.

edit: quality time would be first, if you're counting that now.

I'm an ISTP, and I've had a really hard time typing my love language. I'm probably Quality time, even though some people don't really believe in it. I also speak Acts of service.

Gifts and acts of service are great, but not quite as essential as the Big Three.

Is this supposed to be what I appreciate from others or how I express my love?

Today 07:59 PM
It's supposed to be how you feel most loved (quality time--when someone focuses on you as an individual, truly listens to what you're saying, etc.; physical touch--when someone gives you a pat on the shoulder, a hug, an affirming head-pat, sex, etc.; words of affirmation--verbal expressions of your unique qualities and value as a person; acts of service--taking out the garbage, doing your laundry, helping you move, mowing the lawn, etc.; gifts--tokens, small and not so small tangible, material things given to you that show they thought about you and thought that you were worth their money to buy something or time to craft something for you).


My strongest is definitely quality time to discuss ideas and thoughts and feelings and interpretations of events and philosophical issues. As a shadow SP, I find that touch isn't so important to me until I'm a little stressed, even with very small things to the point where I'm not even aware I'm stressed--I really relish touch when I'm stressed.
