Okay, so you've seen what this love language is all about. Now, how can you use words of affirmation to help your relationships grow? Even if words of affirmation isn't your loved ones primary language. Remember that diversity and openness are key ingredients for lasting relationship. For one whole week, try out a different way of showing affection by doing these simple yet very effective gestures. Take a piece of paper and write down five situations in which you've used praise, positive feedback, reassurance or other verbal recognition for someone dear or do it electronically in order to deter, make it a habit to send a text or compliment something about the other person, not necessarily on a daily basis, but at least two or three times per week after you've communicated emotionally systemize their elections like so if the person you offered praise to reacted positively put a smiley face.
If the reaction was neutral, then put up a neutral smiley face or not that smiley face. And ultimately if they didn't like it, draw a sad face. Count the feedback you've gotten and see with your own eyes the improvement you've brought in your relationship.
