what is love? (baby, don't hurt me... don't hurt me... no more)

i've been talking about relationships alot lately... and this "love language" topic seems to come up every once in a while. apparently, there's some guy that wrote a book about five different ways people express their love:
- sharing time (face time)
- giving gifts (flowers, diamonds, ring pops)
- showing (physical) affection (hugs and kisses)
- expressing their feelings verbally ("ooh, baby, you fly!")
- doing things (taking out the trash, holding the door for her, letting her pluck your eyebrows)

apparently, people tend to express their love in the same way they prefer to receive it. and these five forms are ranked differently for each person. i must be love-deprived because when i see this list they all seem equally important to me. and when i think about the way i express my affection to people-- and the way i like to receive it-- i'm moved to (and by) all of them. maybe when i get into a relationship, i'll be able to see myself more clearly. right now though, i'm happy with any of the above methods...

someone, show me some looooove!
