With the participation of speaker Assoc. Prof. Dr. Trinh Thi Linh - Head of the Department of Psychology, University of Social Sciences and Humanities, and the guidance of MC - Assoc. Prof. Dr. Bui Thi Hong Thai, more than 200 audiences were able to uncover and explore issues surrounding the language of love, and at the same time had their concerns and worries answered. Notably, not only in love as people often think, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Trinh Thi Linh highlighted the applicability of the language of love in many different relationships, helping the audience have new perspectives.
Understanding individual differences
Associate Professor, Dr. Trinh Thi Linh believes that before learning about the different love languages, we need to understand the differences between people. The differences between individuals are a combination of genetic characteristics and environmental factors. The differences between individuals are obvious, so we need to accept, learn, and respect to live together with the differences.
These differences between individuals are the basis for each person having different love languages. Gary Chapman also said: It seems that people in their relationships are having a lot of difficulty understanding each other's language, because each person is different. This is also the reason why his five love languages are extremely famous.
The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman
Love languages are not just words, but also the way each individual sends signals to others to understand the feelings they want to express. The following five love languages can exist in everyone at the same time, but one or two will be more dominant:
To know your own love language, you can observe how you express affection to others, and listen to your own needs in relationships.
How to apply love languages in relationships?
The speaker suggested that, to make it easier to express affection in the family, we can ask ourselves how we are loved by others. From there, we will somewhat "read" the love language of our loved ones and see if we have used their love language effectively. Sometimes, you just need to touch their love language correctly. For example, your parents' love language is helping, you do not necessarily have to do all the housework for them. Just a few small actions like washing vegetables, cleaning dishes... will make them feel much more loved.
Associate Professor, Dr. Trinh Thi Linh also pointed out the necessity of using love languages in couples' love. In the early stages of love, sometimes we have "illusions" about love, always looking at everything through rose-colored glasses. But gradually, the relationship will move to the compromise stage - you begin to care about your own needs and demand more from your partner. At this time, learning about each other's love languages is very important for the two of you to continue to build a happier and stronger relationship.
Not only that, love languages can be applied in other relationships (friends, colleagues, etc.): Do you know the love language of your best friend or colleague? If not, what will you do to find out? If you already know, what will you do in the future?...
Closing her sharing, Associate Professor, Dr. Trinh Thi Linh sent the audience some notes when using the language of love: The language of love is just a supporting tool, not the only solution for a happy relationship: A person can use this language of love but expect to receive another language of love; The language of love can change over time; Do not stereotype the language of love for all relationships.
Through the intimate, easy-to-understand but equally profound sharing of Associate Professor, Dr. Trinh Thi Linh, the audience attending Webinar #5 had the opportunity to better understand their own love language and that of those around them, thereby building and improving relationships.
The Psychosocial Support webinar series for the community by the Center for Interdisciplinary Research in Social Sciences - CIRSS has come to its final numbers.
