Now that I've read this book, I can understand the way my husband communicates and I can love him better in his own special way, instead of treating him and loving him in the way I want to be treated. Everyone needs and wants different things to make them feel loved and appreciated, so being able to...more...

A couple of years ago, one of our local church leaders (who is also a psychologist) recommended that every couple read this book...and now, having read it, I'm just a little surprised by that. Really? Out of all the books on marital relationships, you would recommend this one? Things I ...more...

After three different women recommended this book and then I saw it on the shelf in our marriage counselor's office, I finally checked it out. Chapman's lesson is a simple one: we don't all feel loved the same way. In fact, he proposes there are five love languages: Words of Affirmation, Quality Tim...more...

This was a quick read (one day) and while there wasn't anything in it that will revolutionize the way I look at my relationship, I thought it had some helpful reminders about being considerate of my partner's needs. For that reason, I do believe this a great book for newlyweds or those who are ente...more...

I initially bought The Five Love Languages as a gift for an engagement party. I heard about the book from a girl whose pastor required her and her fiancé to read it before he married them and she really enjoyed it, so I thought it could be a good gift and read it beforehand. I was a littl...more...

Marianne and I were asked to read this book as part of our premarital counseling, and I have to say that I was really impressed. I'd heard of the 5 love languages before, and found it hard to pin down exactly what they are or how they apply to me, so I didn't necessarily know how much more to expec...more...

This book was lent to me, and I was extremely skeptical at first. I flipped through first, just to get a glance at some pages here and there. This only reaffirmed my doubt. However, I told myself that to truly know if the book, or advice, was any good, I'd have to actually read it. So, I did. ...more...

I borrowed this book from a friend after she described its premise to me: in short, different things make different people feel loved, and figuring out what makes the people close to you feel valued improves your relationships. I'm not much for self-help books, but I thought it might be worth a try....more...

eh. See, here's the thing... it's an ok book on bringing ideas about how to pamper your spouse to light but I can't say that it was Biblically sound or inspired. I would have liked to read more about the sanctity of marriage and where it comes in to play with my relationship with God. I also think t...more...

In THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES, Gary Chapman explores what he believes is the cause of all marital dysfunction and breakdown: the different languages in which love can be expressed. According to Chapman, we each respond to one of the five “love languages”–affirmation, time, gifts, service, and tou...more...
