Question:
There's something about what type of love you accept best or something of that nature...the only 3 I can remember are physical touch, complimenting and gift-giving.

I don't know if it was from a book or whatever, but I remember seeing it. I've searched for it on here extensively but to no avail.

Anyone have any clue what I'm looking for?
Answer:
Yes...erotic love and platonic love are two of them.
Answer:
The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman is what you're thinking of, I believe.
Answer:
Yes, he's talking about something called, "The Five Love Languages," which come from a book of same title by Gary Chapman. The languages are quality time, words of affirmation, gifts, acts of service, and physical touch.
The book can be found here:
The Five Love Languages
An unofficial love language test can be found here:
What's Your Love Language?
For the sake of clarity, I edited the thread title.

I think he forgot "wads of cash" when writing the book.
Answer:
Well... gifts sort of covers it.
Answer:
I personally have read and referrered others to the reading of this book! It is very helpful in all walks of the like of love.
I personally teach about two basic loves:
1. God's Agape Love (unconditional love) Everlasting love, which in its supply and availablity never ends.
2. Human Love ability to love: (I call it the "love bank") when its empty, which it empties fast ...it's empty and needs to be refilled.
Human love is based on [Greek] eros love (sexual desire etc.) and philia love (brotherly, sisterly love and friendship etc.).
Eros and phila love oftentimes refuse to wait; that is why people step out of God's will. But godly love can exhibit patience, even when that is not our preference. Agape love energizes.
God designed us to love and be loved, when someone expresses that feeling toward us, we experience a kind of energy. Love heals. Love encourages.
Every believer is a forgiven child of God, so none of us have the right to withhold forgiveness.
Love has the power to forgive. Every single person who is indwelt by the Spirit of God has the capacity to love in a godly fashion. Love brings about generosity. Love enables joyful serving. Love restores. Love builds self-esteem. [Then Dr. Paul Smith goes on to quote 1 Corinthians 13]. --Excerpts above from a sermon by Dr. Paul Smith, New Beginnings Christian Fellowship 12-2005 "Jesus, The Holy Spirit and Agape Love"
1 John 2:26-29 (NASB) 26 These things I have written to you concerning those who are trying to deceive you. 27 As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him. 28 Now, little children, abide in Him, so that when He appears, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming. 29 If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone also who practices righteousness is born of Him.
