what people think gift giving as a love language means: *spending an excessive amount of money on materialistic gifts for people during the holidays*
what gift giving as a love language actually means: “i picked up this cool rock that i found on the ground that reminded me of you” or “i bought you this necklace for 50 cents at a yard sale cause i thought you’d like it” or even “i’ve had this thing since childhood but i feel like it could be of some use to you or give you comfort so i want you to have it”
The point of a gift is to show that you know👏 a 👏person👏well👏!!!!
I have this love language and I have described it as being a magpie. I found this cool ceramic plate at goodwill I thought you would like. I heard you were looking for a new pen here try this one. Please accept my trinkets of devotion.
my psychology professor be like “I don’t believe in nonbinary genders” and five minutes later refers to me as he, then she, then just by my name because it’s become increasingly clear that neither of those are correct even though I am not out in this class
