When understanding love languages doesn't fix the disconnect

My partner and I have different love languages and we've read all the books, but knowing that I need words and they need touch doesn't actually help when I'm starving for verbal affirmation and they're hurt that I stiffen when they reach for me. We understand each other intellectually but we're still failing each other emotionally.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Intellectual frameworks for love can become another way to avoid the vulnerable work of actually feeling our way toward each other.
