Product Description:

Unhappiness in marriage often has a simple root cause: we speak different love languages, believes Dr. Gary Chapman. While working as a marriage counselor for more than 30 years, he identified five love languages: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. In a friendly, often humorous style, he unpacks each one. Some husbands or wives may crave focused attention; another needs regular praise. Gifts are highly important to one spouse, while another sees fixing a leaky faucet, ironing a shirt, or cooking a meal as filling their 'love tank.' Some partners might find physical touch makes them feel valued: holding hands, giving back rubs, and sexual contact. Chapman illustrates each love language with real-life examples from his counseling practice.

Rating: - Truly an a-ha experience!
I am sure that you will love the entire basic but powerful and eye-opening concept- the five love languages. Dr. Chapman focused his attention on married couples in this book but It was a fascinating discovery for me that it applies to almost every situation and relationship. I was amazed to find out that my primary language is "Physical touch". I have had many problems because I tend to stay closer to people than they like.

Rating: - easy reading
this book was well written, easy to read and quickly gets to the point. With Christian fundamentals it's a bit hard to believe any love language is black and white which is sometimes how you feel when reading, but one should always look past the words and stories of others.
