Depending on the question, students had to circle either options A, B, C, D or E.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the quiz, students had to total their lettered answers. Whichever letter had the highest score, that was the love language that resonated with them the most.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second part of the quiz, students were able to gain a better understanding of what their top love language meant. The five love languages are: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service and physical touch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/greatergood.berkeley.edu\/article\/item\/is_there_science_behind_the_five_love_languages#:~:text=Love%20languages%E2%80%94the%20concept%20coined,insights%20into%20how%20relationships%20function.\">According to Greater Good: The Science of a Meaningful Life<\/a>, the concept of love language was created by Baptist pastor Gary Chapman around 30 years ago. Through his observations as a marriage counselor, the idea of love languages was created.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chapman believed love languages were an intuitive way to teach couples about how to understand each other\u2019s way of expressing affection. He published his book \u201cThe Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate\u201d in 2009, which guides readers to identify their own love language, as well as their partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students were able to put their name on a sticky note and place it on a board in response to their top love language. The most popular love language was quality time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Counseling graduate student Yazbel Rodriguez said the reason quality time was the most picked love language is because time is a gift.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\u201cAnd then quality time is, like, doing things that you love to do together,\u201d Rodriguez said. \u201cJust spending time together, even if that means doing homework next to each other \u2018cause you know&nbsp; you don&#8217;t have time to hang out otherwise.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As per the other love languages, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplypsychology.org\/five-love-languages.html\">Simply Psychology<\/a> said Chapman&#8217;s book defined words of affirmation as affection through spoken or written words; physical touch as intimate contact; acts of service as thoughtful gestures; and receiving gifts as meaningful presents.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Biology sophomore Stephanie Marroquin said she thought her love language was receiving gifts, but after taking the quiz, it turns out it was quality time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\u201cWhich makes sense to me, too, \u2018cause I don&#8217;t get to spend a lot of time with my family now since I moved,\u201d Marroquin said. \u201cI feel like I&#8217;m always running out of time, but when I&#8217;m with them, like, I appreciate every single moment with my family or my loved one.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For other events on campus, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/utrgv.campuslabs.com\/engage\/\">VLink<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is Victoria Gonzalez for Vaquero Radio.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Students who wanted to learn about their top love language had the opportunity to do so during the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":7746,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[16,6],"tags":[730,761,762,112,194,726,26,760,747],"class_list":["post-7744","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-edinburg","category-radio","tag-730","tag-love","tag-love-language","tag-rgv","tag-spring","tag-spring-2025","tag-utrgv","tag-v-day","tag-valentines-day"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What\u2019s your love language?
