Certainly looks like your love language is touch, and since you don't recognize or speak his love language, you translate his actions into him not caring or loving you enough.


If you can learn to speak each others languages, then there is hope for you two yet.

You both can start by actually taking the online quiz, as its very insightful.

I'm lucky enough that my bf and I do speak the same languages (Touch and Quality time) but when he emotionally withdrew from me at one point (long story) I interpreted that much the same as you describe.


After many arguments and finally actually listening to what he was "saying" I learned to recognize he had switched to his secondary language (quality time) and since I learned to appreciate it (which was easy since he had SO little free time at that point) we were able to get to a much better space, communicate more effectively and eventually revert back to our primary love language.
