My husband and I both have words of affirmation as our top love language. It’s interesting, though, how we speak that language so differently and receive love so differently. I’m remembering this challenge for sure!
In the book it talks about how just with any other language there is dialect which is also true for the love languages. Very interesting that you both are words of affirmations! I think I read somewhere words of affirmations is the love language that is spoken the most!
I love this idea, I will definitely be doing it! I would say day 4 will be the easiest one for me for to complete.
I am glad you enjoy this idea! Yes, texting would be the easiest for me as well. Although it is strange how I sometimes have to remind myself to send words of affirmations rather than just informational texting.
LOVE this! Absolutely doing this with my husband!! Thank you for the idea!
Most people enjoy getting words of affirmations occasionally even if it is not their primary love language so just go for it!
Hi Cassie – I love this idea for the words of affirmation challenge. I have learned that my husband’s primary love language is “words of affirmation”, however mine is “physical touch”. I’m so glad to have learned my hubbies love language, as we tend to love our spouses in “our” love language, so no wonder I wasn’t getting anywhere with him! ha I was speaking the wrong language! This is challenge is going to help a lot! Thanks so much for this challenge. Take care and God bless you and your husband, and your ministry. ~ Susan
Susan- It does make a huge difference when you are speaking the right love language! My husband’s is also words of affirmations. Mine is quality time and physical touch.

My boyfriend is a trucker and is gone for 90% of the month so we rely on texting, and social media to communicate until he is home. Phone calls don’t happen very often when he has to focus on driving.
His love language is words of affirmation.
My question is;
When physically speaking to him isn’t always doable, are text messages at least once a day with words of affirmation in them as powerful and meaningful as verbally speaking them?
Great question, Jamie! So Words of Affirmations in general are things written or spoken. Things like verbally telling him, notes, texts, praising him on social media, in front of people when you are out together, etc all fall under Words of Affirmations. Check out this post about different kinds of Words of Affirmations. As far as spoken words verse written words I think that could be more of a preference. But for my husband, Ryan, whose Love Language is Words of Affirmation it doesn’t seem to make a different to him. For me personally when I do speak them to him I get to see/hear his reaction which then encourages me to continue to do it. Where if I write him I may just get a simple “thanks” from him. I would suggest you asking your man if it makes a difference to him! You can also find lots of Words of Affirmation Ideas here. Thank you for stopping by here!
