We always hear about love languages in dating, but what about friendships? If you’ve ever felt unappreciated in a friendship—or wondered why your friendships sometimes feel unbalanced—this episode is for you.

We’re breaking down:

• Why friendships can feel off – Is your friend not showing up for you, or are they showing love in a way you don’t recognize?
• The 5 Love Languages in friendship – How each one looks in a platonic relationship, common misunderstandings, and how to adjust.
• Giving vs. Receiving Love Languages – Why the way you show love might not be the way you prefer to receive it.
• Love Language mismatches – What to do when your way of expressing love doesn’t align with your friend’s.
• Long-distance friendships – How to show love and appreciation when you’re miles apart.
• Why friendships deserve the same effort as romantic relationships – And how small changes can make your friendships stronger.

Plus, we’re challenging you to put this into action:

• CTA: Ask your best friend what makes them feel most appreciated—then do it for them this week!
• Bonus Challenge: Make it a fun activity—guess each other’s love languages and reflect on past experiences.

Tune in as we unpack why love languages matter in friendships and how to make sure your closest people feel truly valued.
