What's Your Primary Love Language?

Within each group, rate the sentences 1 to 5 according to what would make you feel most appreciated and loved by your spouse (or children). The number 5 represents what you most appreciate, and number 1, in contrast, is what you least appreciate in each group. (No individual grouping can have a number repeated twice.) Please note that some questions distinguish between male and female. Answer those appropriately, according to your gender and position in the family.
