Has anyone ever read this book? And taken the survey?
I didn't read the book, but I took the survey tonight.
Here is a link, but I'm not sure if it's exactly the same.

I had a three way tie with words of affirmation, acts of service, and gifts. The other categories are quality time and physical touch.

I'd be interested in reading this book. My H and I are definitely different types, so I think it would be good to understand how the other one works. I took the test and was exactly what I thought I would be.
Recently, a mom of four told me she used this concept with her children, because all 4 of them were different types. Being able to give them love in the way they each individually needed it made a huge difference..
I have the book. It's collecting dust on my bookself. I took the quiz, I scored an 8, 9, & 10.. does that make me needy? 8 (words of affirmation) 9 (physical touch) 10(quality time)..
dang if there weren't a lot of questions about receiving gifts.
ETA: I guess there were a lot of questions about everything, but it seems liked every question had a gifts answer

LOL! Yes.
Can I at least get four out of five? Or if I settle for a single orgasm? Seriously, who doesn't want ALL of these things?
LoL I was thinking the same thing about myself, but I think it's the opposite. We are more easy to please, since we can be made happy in multiple ways.
We weren't required to read any books during our premarital counseling.
I will read the book, eventually.
I agree that this would be very useful information in a marriage or with your children. It's the same reason I give my students and parents a little survey at the beginning of each year to find out what they like, don't like, etc., so I can reward and/or punish them in a way that is meaningful to them as an individual.
I agree with there being a lot of gift questions! I noticed it cause my friends that I took it with told me that they thought I would be gifts before we took it. At first I was offended, thinking this made me seem shallow or greedy, but then when I thought about it, I realized it is true. When someone gives me something if it is something that is way not my taste or like a generic gift I feel hurt or offended, like they didn't care enough about me to take the time to pick something out specifically for me. Where as if it's something I would pick out myself I feel like they really care. When I buy gifts for people (which I love to do) I really stress over getting what is right for them.
I am happy to hear that you are working at working things out. Good luck!
