6 Proofs Why Couples Who Talk Like Babies Are Happier!

Baby food is delicious (I just love good applesauce), but how many times have you heard a baby speak in public and thought, “No, stop, please”? I wanted to know more, so I did some research to learn about the fascinating psychology behind baby talk.

Baby talk is different from not making your bed every morning (and that goes for everyone). Even though it may be perceived as boring to some people outside of the relationship, it is not a sign of immaturity.

In fact, there are legitimate biological and psychological reasons why you might engage in conversations with your partner, and understanding them can help bring you even closer together!

Read on and you’ll find the 6 proofs why couples who talk like babies are happier:

1. It’s a sign that your relationship is healthy

Baby talk isn’t just a way to create intimacy in a relationship – it actually means your relationship is healthy.

This is a sign of emotional closeness because it brings you and your partner closer together when you let the other person talk to you as if you were a child.

This means you don’t need to activate your defenses, instead you can behave the same way you did when you were young. There’s nothing wrong with being your girlfriend’s big baby!

2. This is a mirror of how your parents spoke to you

Part of the reason baby talk creates intimacy is that it can reflect the way your parents affectionately called you.

The first people you bonded with on this planet may have been your parents, grandparents, uncles, etc. When you talk like a baby, you are actually trying to reproduce that initial love from your parents or guardians for the other person.

Sure, it’s a different kind of intimacy, but it’s still the same feeling of giving and receiving love.

3. This demonstrates vulnerability

Baby talk allows you to feel loved as much as you were as a child, but it also allows you to feel safe and secure in your love.

When you talk like a baby, you show that you don’t need to impress your partner; you are able to show your most innocent form. As with your parents or guardians, you are vulnerable to your partner when you talk like a child.

I even tried to show my vulnerability to my mom by asking “can you pay my bills this month?” — it just didn’t work =/

4. It doesn’t mean you’re immature

Glamor magazine recently posted the story of a 31-year-old lawyer. She described how she and her partner found love in baby talk, and that they enjoy the intimacy it brings.

However, that doesn’t make anyone any less of an adult – just like other things you do in the bedroom, baby talk is simply part of the relationship and not a reflection on you.

5. This serves as an escape

Have you ever woken up on Saturday morning after a long week at work and didn’t want to do anything but spend all day watching cartoons?

This is not a sign that you are regressing to childhood, this is because you need a brief break from being an adult.

The same goes for baby talk. Baby talk is a way for partners to connect while also temporarily escaping the responsibilities of adulthood.

6. You often do this because you really love your partner

Baby talk can be more beneficial or intimate to the person doing the baby talk than the person receiving it.

Even when parents are talking to real babies, baby talk benefits the adult because it allows them to see the baby as someone they need to protect, and this creates intimacy.

Likewise, in love relationships, the person who talks like a baby develops warm feelings by loving his partner.

I’ve heard a lot of people complain about couples’ baby talks more times than I can count (and certainly more times than a baby could count), but this can actually be a healthy part of a relationship.

Sure, it might seem strange at first to have adults talking like babies, but there are good reasons to do so. So if you have the urge to say to your partner: “Itimalia gente que coiginha maiiiixxx liindaaa di meu Deussss” — don’t hold back!
