[00:00:04]:
Hey everybody. Welcome back to another episode of Onattachment. In today's episode, we are talking all about Love languages so what they are, how they interface with attachment patterns to the extent that there are any themes there. And what you can do if you and your partner have different Love languages so that you can both feel like you're giving and receiving love in the way that feels good for you, which is really at the crux of the whole idea of Love languages. So that's what we're going to be talking about today. I'm hoping that it will be both fun and useful.
[00:00:55]:
Before we dive into that, I just wanted to share, you might have heard me share that I have started a YouTube channel and I am uploading lots of videos. There are already a bunch on there and I'm uploading new videos almost every day. So if you are someone who likes YouTube, I have to confess, I'm not a huge user of YouTube myself, but I know a lot of people are. So if you're someone who likes video content and you'd like to either watch while you listen to the podcast or look at other exclusive clips from me, on Attachment, love Relationships, all of that good stuff, come find me on YouTube @stephanierigg should be relatively easy to find me and I would love your support there. If you wanted to like and subscribe comment on my videos, that would be a huge help. So let's dive into this conversation around the Love Languages. Now the Five Love Languages, if you're unfamiliar, uninitiated was a book written by a guy called Gary Chapman in the early 90s. So it's been around a really long time.
[00:01:52]:
But the essence of the Love Languages is that we all give and receive love differently. So something that, for me, feels really important in order to feel like I am being loved and cared for and cherished and all of those things might be totally different for you and that might not be significant for you or important to you or something that you particularly value or require in order to feel loved in a relationship. And so he came up with these five Love Languages which are essentially five different broad categories of how people tend to give and receive love. And it's not to say that you are only one of these things, it's not to become overly attached to the label, as with anything, it's a useful tool, but it's not something to get dogmatic about. But the premise of the Five Love Languages is that most of us will have one or two dominant Love Languages, which are the ways that we by default give love and prefer to receive love. And so the idea being that in cultivating a greater understanding around what our preferences are, our love languages and those of the people that we're in relationship with, we can make sure that we're not missing each other. Because so much of the time I could be giving someone love in a way that works for me, but it's not how it works for them or it's just not something that they register as love. And so it might just not be received as an act of love.
[00:03:16]:
And so I can feel then as the giver like the person's not receiving it in the way that I intended when really I'm giving it in the way that I would like to receive it. So that's all a lot of words and I'm going to now dive into what these five love languages are to give a little bit more context for those who might not be familiar. So there's physical touch which is pretty straightforward. People who really value physical touch, affection, kissing, hugging, holding hands, cuddling, intimacy, all of those things that really it's hard to feel loved without having that physical closeness and really really value and rely upon physical closeness and intimacy in order to feel loved and connected to someone. Gift giving is another one. So people who really appreciate to receive gifts and who love to give really thoughtful gifts. I wish I was better at gift giving, it's just so not my love language. As much as I appreciate when someone gives me a nice gift, it's just not part of my programming.
[00:04:16]:
But I have so much admiration for people who are really excellent gift givers and come up with these really creative thoughtful gifts that are just like wow. And so it can be really beautiful. But that's a good example for me. I never really value gift giving that much so I never think to put in heaps of effort to gift giving. The next one is what? Acts of service. So how can I go out of my way to do things for you as an act of love? I always think of this as like a dad love language. I think a lot of dads are acts of service people. So can I go out of my way? Can I lighten the load for you? Can I do chores on your behalf if I see that you're stressed or can I pick something up from the shop for you or drive you to the airport or whatever I can do to make your life easier by way of an act of service of some description.
[00:05:07]:
So that's one of the love languages is acts of service words of affirmation. So really loving affirming words, giving people compliments, telling them how much you admire them, telling them that you appreciate them, that you value them being really verbally affirming and loving and really overt in those expressions of love and affection and admiration for someone. And last but not least, quality time. So if quality time is my love language, I might really value not just spending time with you, but doing really exciting things together. So playing a game or going on a hike or doing things that feel connective as joint experiences rather than just it's not quantity time is probably a good way of putting it. So people who value that, who have this quality time, love language, might like to go on an adventure with their partner, do something exciting, do a class together, have new experiences, but they get a lot out of connecting through doing together. So those are the five love languages physical touch, words of affirmation, acts of service, gift giving and quality time. So, as I said, the whole premise of these love languages is that most of the time in relationship you're not going to have the same love languages as your partner.
[00:06:24]:
And what that means is that we are on different wavelengths, speaking different languages, right? It's as if we were speaking different languages in terms of how we are giving and receiving love. And so the idea being that if we can have greater clarity around not only what our love language is, but what our partners is, then we can get better at giving them love in their love language and receiving love from them in their love languages. Whereas without that knowledge we might be just giving them love in our love language in a way that doesn't really land for them as particularly significant or loving. And we're missing all the ways in which they give us love in their love languages because we're expecting to receive it in ours. So taking this out of the abstract, because again, I realise that all sounds a bit semantic and wordy, I won't even give hypotheticals, I'll use myself and my partner as an example. I always think it's kind of funny, anxious attachment. I kind of think that every love language is an anxious attachment love language because there's kind of no ceiling or upper limit in terms of how much love anxiously attached people want and the ways in which they are open to receiving it. But I tend to find that in terms of how anxiously attached people like to receive love, I think that physical touch, words of affirmation and maybe acts of service to a lesser degree can be really dominant for people with anxious attachment patterns.
[00:07:50]:
And certainly myself included quality time as well, now that I say it really ticking all the boxes, but for me those things are really, really important. Whereas my partner, he's probably more quality time and definitely doesn't naturally or by default he doesn't value physical touch or words of affirmation anywhere near as much as I do. And so without having that recognition and that knowledge, it would be really easy for me to internalise that as he doesn't love me or care about me, right? That's an easy story to tell. It's like, oh, you never even reach out to give me a massage when we're watching TV or something. It's like, I would always do that for you. It's like, yeah, well, we're not coming from the same starting point and that's a really important thing to recognise. And on the flip side, for me, quality time, I don't really care that much what we're doing. I'm happy to hang out at home together, I'm happy to go on a bushwalk, I'm happy to go out to a restaurant.
[00:08:48]:
I don't really mind what the substance of the activity is, but for my partner, it's really important to have some sort of sense of novelty or excitement or like we're doing something that is a little bit more than just hanging out at home. For me, I'm kind of happy with the comfy cosy do nothing, because the quality time is not such a big one for me. So recognising that and going as always, it's not just like, okay, who wins? Whose way is the right way? Does one of us just have to yield to the other or one of us just has to accommodate the other? No, of course not. The idea is that we both develop the knowledge and understanding to accommodate each other while also making space for our way. So if you have different love languages to your partner, which you probably will, the challenge is, can I go out of my way to give them love in the way that feels good for them and can they do the same for me so that we're both getting love in the way that we want it? And can I start looking at their acts and behaviours as potentially loving in ways that I might have missed otherwise? For example, if my partner suggests an activity like, oh, do you want to go play tennis with me? That might be an act of love from him, because that's a quality time experience. Whereas for me, I'm just like, yeah, okay, but that doesn't score higher points for me by default than just being at home together. But it's like, can I bring more awareness to the ways in which you are offering these bids for connection, in the way that to use the Gottman language, because that allows us to receive more love, right? That's what this ultimately boils down to, is, can we give and receive more love in all directions? So I promised that I'd also speak a little to the attachment dynamics here and I kind of have already alluded to it by using myself and my partner as an example, that for people with more anxious attachment patterns, more overt and direct expressions of love tend to be favoured. So physical touch and words of affirmation giving, that really direct reassurance of, like, I love you and you're beautiful and you're amazing.
[00:10:52]:
And all of that is going to really support the anxious person, to feel reassured and really valued as a partner, make them feel special, make them feel really you're my person, all of that kind of thing. It's going to be like warm honey for the anxiously attached person who in the absence of that, it doesn't take much to go quickly into insecurity and worrying, I'm not good enough, I'm this, I'm that. All of that unworthiness stuff can bubble up to the surface pretty quickly in the absence of those displays of love and affection. So if you're in relationship with someone who has more anxious attachment patterns, you would do well to really dial up the words of affirmation, the physical touch, even the access like any of them, right? Gift giving. I'm sure if you went out of your way to give a really thoughtful gift to your partner, they'd really appreciate it. But particularly words of affirmation and physical touch are really, really big for anxiously attached people. So going out of your way to really deliberately dial up the intensity on those love languages will usually do a lot. It's not just like a nice thing to do, although it absolutely is a nice thing to do, but it will actually lessen the anxiety quite a lot.
[00:12:05]:
So it's in your interest as well because your partner is likely to really settle into the security of that and feel really loved and that is obviously an everybody wins situation. More avoidant folk, as we know, tend to be less focused on overt displays of emotion, can feel a little vulnerable around that, so they tend to focus more on things like quality time, gift giving and acts of service. Those are more doing based rather than saying or overt connections. So it's almost like those activities like if we're doing something together or I'm going out of my way for you or I'm giving you a gift, it's like there's a buffer between us that allows me to feel a little less vulnerable in my display of love. Because to just lay it all out there might feel really intensely vulnerable for someone with more avoidant patterns who hasn't had experience with that level of vulnerability. So yeah, I think that people with more avoidant patterns do tend towards love languages that feel a little safer in that they're a little more indirect. And again, there's nothing wrong with that. It's just recognising the difference and going, oh, okay.
[00:13:14]:
When they do those things, when they ask me if I need anything or if they offer to drive me here or they give me a gift or they want to do an activity together, that is a bid for connection. That is them trying to connect with me. That is them trying to show love. Even if I'm sitting there just feeling the lack of the other things, when really there is love coming my way, I'm just not aware of it. I think the other thing to say about love Languages is it's really good to be specific about just saying to someone, I really value gift giving is very broad and doesn't really help someone out all that much, so be specific in what the actual quality of the thing is that you desire. So I think gift giving is a good example because some people who like gift giving might want something really extravagant and expensive and luxurious, and other people want something handmade, thoughtful and really tailored uniquely to them that has all of this personal significance. Those are two very different categories of gift giving, and if you went for one and the person was expecting the other, again, it wouldn't land. So I think we do have to dig a little beneath the surface of these love languages and go, okay, words of Affirmation do I just want you to tell me that you love me or do I want you to give me compliments? Do I want compliments on my appearance or do I want compliments on my personality? All of these things, I get pretty granular in terms of helping your partner out on the things that you appreciate and the things that feel really good for you.
[00:14:39]:
So I think that that can help a lot. And I think that, as always, the more we can create open dialogues around these things and be really open minded and curious and let the ethos of this be how can I love my partner better? And how can I receive their love in a more open hearted way? That is really the gift or the opportunity that learning about love languages presents to us. And so if you take anything from this episode, I hope that it's. That opening my eyes to the ways in which my partner might be giving me love that I'm missing and thinking about some ways that I might be able to take steps towards them in a way that is going to really land for them and feel really deeply loving, even if it's not my default mode, even if it's not something that feels particularly significant for me. And just seeing what happens from that place, seeing what blossoms from that culture or environment of giving and receiving love really deliberately and intentionally that you can foster in your relationship. As always, I hope that this episode has been helpful and if you want to leave a review or a rating, I'd really appreciate it. And as I said, come find me on YouTube.

[00:00:04]:
In today's episode I am answering the listener’s question of how to navigate mismatched libido in a relationship and particularly in anxious, avoidant kind of dynamic. So this is something that I've touched on before on the show, but I haven't very recently and it is such a common experience and I think unfortunately one that doesn't get talked about anywhere near enough. And so, so many people end up feeling really lonely and isolated and convincing themselves that it's just them and everyone else is having really great sex and a really thriving sex life and they are alone in their struggle.
[00:01:04]:
I can tell you from the privileged position of hearing a lot of people's stories all the time that that is far from the truth and so many people are struggling with this. So with one partner wanting sex more than the other and all of the things that can flow from that the shame, the conflict, the sense of rejection and unworthiness and worrying about the relationship not really knowing how to connect internalising that taking it very personally. All of these things are so much more common than you would realise and I think, as I said, really important to talk about so that we can destigmatize that a little and hopefully empower ourselves to feel like we have more agency in how to talk about it and how to approach finding a solution. So that's what we're going to be talking about today. And as I said, we'll be looking at it with a bit of an attachment overlay because often sex and attachment are spoken about in isolation. When really if attachment is looking at the way that we relate to and experience intimacy and what fears we might have around that, it makes sense that sex would bring those wounds to the forefront in very profound ways. And that has certainly been my observation and my personal experience as well. So that's what we're going to be talking about today.
[00:02:19]:
Before we dive into that, I did just want to flag that one of my Master classes on my website is called Sex and Attachment and it's over 2 hours. Just on this topic, I've created a discount code for you. If anyone listens to today's episode and feels like they could use a little bit more of a deep dive on this topic or you're just interested to learn more, you can use the code podcast 50 or One Word and we'll link all of that in the show notes to save 50% on that Masterclass. That's less than $50 that it'll come to for you. So yes, as I said, if you're interested in learning more about sex and attachment, which I think most all of us should be because it's such an important area of relationships, definitely go and cheque that one out. Okay, so let's talk about this mismatched libido and anxious avoidant sexual dynamics. Even as I say that it's such a big topic I don't even know where to begin. Maybe we can start by acknowledging that mismatched libido is incredibly common.
[00:03:15]:
If we think about libido as being this combination of our desire for sex, interacting with all of the reasons why we wouldn't want to have sex at any given moment, most often that's around stress. So our brain is going through this process of basically tallying up reasons for and against having sex. And some of us are really sensitive to the reasons against so that if there's any slight reason against having sex, we have no interest in sex, and we really don't want to go there, whereas some of us really are quite open to having sex most of the time, and we don't place a lot of weight on the reasons why we wouldn't want to have sex. And so when we've all got these complex equations going on with all of these different inputs and our levels of openness to sex at any given moment, is it any wonder that mismatched libido is so common? Of course it is. Right? It's so personal when and under what circumstances we feel like being intimate with a partner. And so when we've got two people with their own sets of equations and circumstances, it's rare that it's just going to organically line up all of the time. So mismatched libido is something that most people will encounter at some point in some season in one or more of the relationships in their life. So it's really not something to be ashamed of.
[00:04:34]:
It's just part of navigating relationships, is that you're likely to have to negotiate a little on this because it's unlikely you're going to just start and finish at the same point, pardon the pun, but you're not going to be 100% aligned on that all the time just because you're different people with different experiences. So recognising that libido is not something that's objective in terms of what is normal, right? And ask anyone, any experts in the field of sexuality, there's no objective metric for what a normal amount of sex is or what a healthy amount of sex is. A standard libido is wanting sex x amount of it's not like that. It's really what's normal for you and what allows you to feel like your sexual needs are being satisfied and is not causing you any distress. So if you're having sex three times a year, but that is perfectly fine for you, then that's your normal and that's fine. Whereas someone else might need to be having sex three times a week minimum to be feeling like their sexual needs are being met. And part of being in relationship with someone is negotiating your needs to the extent that there are divergences and finding ways to meet in the middle or find ways for both of you to get your needs met. To the extent that there are vast differences in your needs that feel like you can't bridge the gap, then maybe you're not compatible, right? But before we get to not compatible, let's look at some of the ways that this might show up in relationship and particularly why it might be present in anxious avoidant dynamics and why it might cause particular distress in those dynamics.
[00:06:08]:
So, for anxiously attached people, sex is often used as a barometer for the overall health of the relationship. So if my partner wants sex and we're having sex and they seem to be sexually satisfied, then I feel safe and reassured and wanted and desired and all of those things. And that's like a big tick in terms of I can relax because there's nothing wrong, right? I use sex as the litmus test for whether the relationship is going well overall and because anxiously attached people tend to struggle with unworthiness and fears of being undesirable and also jealousy or fears about potential infidelity or just outside threats to the relationship, sex feels like a really important glue to hold things together. And so, to the extent that there's any change in the sexual dynamic or their partner pulls away sexually or loses interest sexually, even if just for a period of time, the anxiously attached person is likely to take that and spin it into a really catastrophic story. So the interpretation is likely to be very severe. There's something terribly wrong. They've lost interest in me, they don't find me attractive anymore, they're falling out of love with me, they're seeing someone else, there's someone else they're interested in and that's why they don't want me. All of these things are likely to go to existential threats to the relationship just because that's what we know anxious folks do.
[00:07:29]:
And so what often happens and why this can be such a predictable cycle is that at the start of a relationship between an anxious person and an avoidant person is there'll often be a lot of sexual chemistry and intensity as there tends to be in most relationships, certainly here. And then as the relationship progresses, becomes a little more serious and a little more stable and steady, the avoidant person will often start to pull away and they often won't really have a solid understanding of why that's happening for them. They might just have this inexplicable loss of desire or reduction in desire and attraction. And for the avoidant person they might start to make meaning out of that and go oh, maybe this means it's not the right relationship. What is often happening is that for avoidant folks, they don't really know how to desire someone that they love and someone that is a comfortable person who they have a level of intimacy and vulnerability with. For most avoidant folks, I think it would be fair to say that more casual sexual encounters are going to be more comfortable than more intimate ones. And that's kind of just the opposite for a lot of anxious people who go the more intimacy the better. But for avoidant folks, sex is vulnerable for all of us and it's really how we relate to that vulnerability that can change how we respond to that, to the idea of sexual intimacy.
[00:08:50]:
So for a lot of avoidant people, they won't really know how to have sex in a vulnerable way with someone that they love and so they can start to experience this withdrawal. And when that happens, the anxious person responds by testing escalating, upping the ante, trying to figure out if it's just all in their head or whether something really is wrong. So they might try and initiate more frequently, might try and be more affectionate with their partner to see whether they pull away or whether they're open receptive. And so the anxious person gets to work on gathering information and trying to test their hypothesis. And oftentimes the avoidant person feels that additional pressure pulls away more because they just feel overwhelmed. And then the anxious person goes well yes, I was right, they are pulling away, something really is wrong. And then it spirals and spirals because as one person escalates and the other pulls away and there's no actual open dialogue about anything, it's just both people living in these fear stories and whatever their self protective mechanisms are that just happen to be in direct opposition. So that's kind of a dynamic that I've previously termed the anxious avoidant sexual spiral.
[00:09:57]:
And you can probably imagine why if you've experienced it, I've experienced it, it's hard and it's really, really easy to internalise their stories of what's wrong? What have I done? Has something happened? Why do they not find me attractive anymore? What do I need to change about myself in order for them to desire me? Again, as is often the case, we take someone's behaviour and we make it about us and then we try and solve the problem by solving ourselves. And needless to say, that's really painful because usually it doesn't work and then we just feel like we failed and there's something really inherently wrong with us and the relationship. So all of that to say, there's a lot at play here and I think the first step in making any sort of headway here is can I depersonalise this? Now, I'm not going to tell you to not be impacted by it because I know that's not realistic and I can't even do that myself, right? Because it hurts and it's really easy to take that personally and to feel hurt by it. And that's I think totally fair enough. But we want to just interrupt between hurt and there's something wrong with me where that story starts to take root. That's what we want to interrupt and just soften away that story rather than feeding that and going, okay, this is uncomfortable, or this is painful. How can I change myself or do things differently or start frantically over functioning to try and get this person to want me? Because that's really kind of overstepping on where our responsibility lies. And we tend to then, as I said, feel like a failure if and when that doesn't work, which it usually doesn't.
[00:11:36]:
So can we hold on to the primary emotion of oh, this feels uncomfortable, this feels scary, I feel rejected, which is not good, I feel embarrassed. Even all of those things really normal. But can we just nudge in between that and the stories that spring from it and try and be really careful there so that we don't add more suffering to what is already a painful experience? I think when we can do that, we can also tend to those emotions more skillfully and we can share with our partner from a place that is self honouring and honest without being really, really charged with all those stories that we've been crafting and spinning around in our head. So being able to say to someone, look, it's really important to me and I really value when we're intimate and I've noticed that recently you've been less open to that. Is that something that you'd be willing to talk about? Is there something going on for you? And really being open minded and curious rather than projecting all of the fears and the hypotheses that you might have as to what's going on for them, seeking to understand. And if they are reluctant to have the conversation, you can kind of say, look, I get it. I get that this is really uncomfortable. It's not really comfortable for me either, but it's important to me.
[00:12:51]:
We don't have to have the conversation right now, but we do need to have it because it's important to me that we nurture this part of our relationship. And I really want us to be able to do that in a way that feels safe and good for both of us and here's what I'd need in that respect. So really being firm but compassionate in the way that you approach the conversation with your partner and emphasising everything that I've shared with you, that it's not something to be ashamed of. Mismatched libido is super common and stress is such a big part of it. So having a little more awareness around what goes into our experience of sexual desire, what we call libido, and tinkering with the variables. So if I know that being really tired at the end of the day is not conducive to sexual desire, then maybe you need to reverse engineer your environment to be trying to initiate sex at other times of day when your partner is likely to be more conducive. Or if you know that when you guys don't have enough space and privacy, then that makes you more stressed than allows for an enjoyable experience. Right? We need to get really clear and specific on what factors contribute to and detract from our experience of desire in a way that allows us to get really pragmatic and just help ourselves out rather than being very passive and then hoping for a miracle and then feeling awful when things aren't going the way we'd hoped.
[00:14:20]:
So I think we need to dispel this idea that sex should be really effortless and romantic and easeful all the time and really go, okay, if this is something that we're prioritising in our relationship, like any other thing, any other type of quality time, then we need to prioritise it and stop just waiting for it to happen or to improve or whatever. That's not going to happen on its own. So going if this is something that we both value about our relationship, then we're going to need to be really active participants in that process and in making it really great. And again, some people will have resistance to that. Your partner might be of the view that it shouldn't be hard and that it should just come easily and that there's something wrong if it's not really natural and easeful. And I think you've just got to say to them, look, I understand that that's the messaging we've gotten, but I just don't think that that's true. And I think that that can be a defence mechanism that people come up with. It's like, oh, it shouldn't be this hard and that's why I'll just kind of run away and go find someone else where it'll all be easier and I'll just get to start from scratch.

I think that that's just a defence mechanism that allows us to move away from vulnerability and convince ourselves that with the perfect person it'll all be easy. And of course, we know that that is unfortunately a myth. So I hope that this has given you at least a starting point. Obviously this is a huge discussion. I have had a few episodes previously around sex and sexual communication and sexual dynamics. You can scroll back through the archives if you want to listen to more on the podcast or as I said, the sex and attachment masterclass is very much a comprehensive deep dive on this issue and you can use the code podcast 50 to save 50% on that masterclass which we will link in the show notes. Or you can find via my website. Otherwise I really hope that this has been helpful and if it has, please do leave a review or a five star rating.
