favorite ways to show/receive affection or appreciation to/from your loved ones?

[Hanami]

what are your favorite ways to show and receive love?

my favorite ways to show affection or appreciation:
- cooking for them
- picking up something that I think they'll like to eat

and my favorite ways to receive affection or appreciation:
- spending 1:1 time with me and giving me their undivided attention
- randomly calling or texting to check in and say they thought of me / randomly recalling something I said or a detail about me
- respects that I enjoy my hobbies, and even better if they take an interest in and starting partaking in them!
- and of course, cooking for me as well!

Favorite way of showing is either through words or gift-giving.

Favorite way of receiving is through words or touch.

my favorite ways of showing:
- physical touch
- making a playlist of songs that remind me of them
- writing them love letters/text paragraphs
- i also really like giving the other person little notes with hearts on them or writing “i love you”

my favorite ways of receiving:
- physical touch
- reassurance/words of affirmation
- (just a lil) gift giving, nothing too expensive, literally could just be a rock they found in the street just cus it reminded them of me and i’d keep it forever

Meaningful gifts. I always listen to my friends and give them very specific gifts, sadly I never got love returned like that. :<

My parents show their love via food. But mostly it was an apology gift, so yay for emotional eating? Haha. We're not really a touchy or loving family, kinda sucks.

when it comes to showing affection, i LOVE giving gifts. i don't give anything thoughtless if i can, i make sure it fits them to a tee. will this fit in their home? can they use it practically, or if not, could i see them displaying this somewhere? i buy my sister stuff she can use for work that have a personalized twist on them- she's a nurse, and she loves badge reels and fancy stethoscopes. i bought her a rose gold stethoscope right around COVID times and she still has it.

when it comes to receiving???? none idk i hate it when people perceive me but i also love quality time so idk! conversation? talking to me about thing i like without being like "wtf" is probably good. i dont like gifts, hate it when family touches me, i'm not a very outwardly sentimental person, like... idk. if you take me to go get coffee with you then i'll assume you love me and thats enough for me.
