Amazon.com 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. How do you discover your spouse's - and your own - love language? Chapman's short questionnaires are one of several ways to find out. Throughout the book, he also includes application questions that can be answered more extensively in the beautifully detailed companion leather journal (an exclusive Amazon.com set). Each section of the journal corresponds with a chapter from the book, offering opportunities for deeper reflection on your marriage. Although some readers may find choosing to love a spouse that they no longer even like -hoping the feelings of affection will follow later- a difficult concept to swallow, Chapman promises that the results will be worth the effort. "Love is a choice," says Chapman. "And either partner can start the process today." --Cindy Crosby. This text refers to the Amazon.com Exclusive Journal & Paperback Book Set.

Dr. Chapman is the Man!!!! September 7, 2008 This book is a real eye opener. Dr. Chapman is a genius. It helped me to get to know myself. I know so many people/couples who could benefit from this book I am going to buy some and hand them out. I now know how to support my husband and build a strong bonded relationship. Dr. Gary Chapman is the Man!!!!!!
The 5 Love Languages September 7, 2008 This book is great to read and the principles will work if you exercise them.
Helpful for any relationship September 7, 2008 I think this book is great! It is very easy to listen to, as the author is very engaging. The author uses many examples of real couples and thier problems. Although it is meant mostly for couples, it is useful in any relationship. If everyone tried to learn and speak everyone else's love language, the world would be a better place!
Good Book! September 6, 2008 I was very aprehensive about this book, until 2 different friends recommended it. I read it in one day (it's an easy read) and loved it! It has helped me make my marriage a happy one, indeed!
What I learned after 25 years of Marriage September 3, 2008 Everyone has heard that opposites attract, but then how do these two opposites communicate after all the excitement has worn off? I learned that my love language was quality time talking together and my husband's was words of affirmation. I would have never figured this out on my own. I have been giving this book as a wedding present because I realized that young couples need it as much as couples who have been married 25 years. I've been told that it was the favorite gift one young couple received!
