There’s no single way to love, and that is what makes it interesting. Some wear their hearts on their sleeves, while others show affection through small gestures. There are those who tease for fun, and those who fall hard and fast, and those still figuring out exactly what—or who—they want. And then there’s the kind of love that asks for no one else at all: an exciting little indulgence, chosen for ourselves.

This Qixi, we’re celebrating the ways love show up in our lives. Like a matchmaking guide of a different sort: seven type of love, seven personalities and seven gifts that speak their language.

Planning a grand declaration, spoiling your lover, navigating through a situationship or just treating yourself, scroll on to discover our Qixi edit.
