Monthly Musings: How We Show Love

It’s time for another Monthly Musing!! This time I’m talking about how we show love. It looks like a lot of these would be related to a significant other. I don’t have one of those, but I’m still joining in, and if I think it pertains to an SO, then the answer will be hypothetical 🙂

1. What is your love language?

I would say a little bit of four of the 5: words of affirmation, quality time, acts of service, and receiving gifts. But narrowing it down, I would say more quality time. I love spending time with my family and friends (I should say my closest friends), whether it is just sitting and talking/laughing, watching a movie together, traveling together, or even doing something adventurous together. I like being with them.

2. Favorite love songs?

There are so many that I like, you know… if I had an SO – but the first one that popped into my head is “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing”.

3. Flowers, chocolate, or something else?

I like flowers and chocolate, but “diamonds are a girl’s best friend”. Honestly, as long as it is from the heart, I’d be happy 🙂

4. Favorite romantic/rom-com movie?

I don’t know that I have a favorite. I do like a good romcom, so there are a lot that I could name.

5. Favorite childhood Valentine’s memory?

In high school, Valentine’s was a hard day for me. I would say I hated it (I’m not even going to go into details why. I think now about how dumb it was to be upset but that was life of a teenage girl I suppose).. Anyway, one Valentine’s Day, I think it was my senior year, someone (a teacher or principal or someone) had us come into the auditorium and they gave us letters from our parents. I don’t know if this arranged for Valentine’s or something else, but it was on Valentine’s Day so it will always be a Valentine’s memory that I will remember. My mom’s letter made me cry!

6. How did you celebrate Valentine’s Day?

I worked…because it was a Friday HAHA. Then I spent the rest of the night at home, and loved it 🙂 My sister did make some chocolate-covered strawberries for her boyfriend and herself, but she brought us some too.

7. Any love or romance traditions?

Short and simple – No.

8. When do you feel most loved?

When I am spending time when “my people”.

9. Big night out or chill at home?

Chill at home.

10. Do you wear red/pink on Valentine’s Day?

Well, I hate Valentine’s Day a lot less now, so I will actually wear red or pink. I wore this sweatshirt 😉
