Episode 100 - Gifts That Keep Giving

Perhaps you’re still not sold on the idea that gifts is a legitimate love language. That it’s more about status symbols over experiences or people. You clearly don’t understand the gifts that keep giving. If you gift your whisky loving friend that fancy silicone ice ball mold, every time they engage in their favorite hobby of making drinks they will think of you. If your partner wears that fabulous watch, every time someone compliments it, not only is it reinforcement of positive feelings towards you, the admirers will often say wow, how lucky, what a terrific partner you have. You don’t have to say nice things about yourself, other people will do it for you. One of my favorite necklaces is a gift from an ex-boyfriend that he purchased for me while he was out of town on a trip. We have both moved on but I still appreciate his good taste. More often though, I hold the sentiment sacred, it’s an affirmation of something that I already believe about myself. I am worthy of thoughtfulness and effort.
