five love languages

a day or so ago i had posted the question on my facebook status asking those who pay attention to such things, what is the best way to say i love you?
the only response that caught my fleeting attention span for more than a the few seconds it took to read it was something from my mother. (yes, my mother is on facebook and constantly constantly replied to whatever is up there).
she highlighted that to know the best way to tell someone that you love them is to know their "love language." yes this is a great pop psychology term that came about in the early 1990s by a baptist pastor and author (The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate by Gary Chapman), but if nothing else it has provided a way for a mass of people to digest the idea of showing love and hopefully be more successful at expressing their affection for people around them.
anyhow - the languages of love actually break down into five languages: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, or physical touch. it is argued that as individuals we each appreciate and can understand all of these languages, but that one speaks much louder or holds more weight for us.
so i broke this down to see where i feel like i fall and kept coming up primarily in one category - physical touch. for those that know me well this is not a surprise, i suppose. perhaps in contrast (actually maybe in support) to that, i am extremely reserved about touching people until we break a certain thresh hold and often am seeking out touch while holding my own back.
the percentage break down of the all languages are as follows (from a brief test that i found based on his work - far from science - closer to cosmo).
20% Words of Affirmation
20% Quality Time
10% Receiving Gifts
17% Acts of Service
33% Physical Touch
i suppose there is nothing overall surprising about these scores. for people who have spent a significant amount of time with me this im sure is overly simple. it is commonly know that while i do enjoy a heartfelt gift from time to time, that a heartfelt card, afternoon of qt or even a hug can hold much more weight.
so, the next question that i have after the quick dip into my self-assessment is do i communicate with those around me in the best language of love for them? or is it mostly a selfish to how i feel most comfortable expressing my affection and commitment?
i suppose the best way to solve this is with variety. but it makes me wonder, what is your love language? should i be making a mental note of what everyone's appears to be to be a better player in relationships?
