Annotation:
Gary Chapman believes that a healthy marriage is one in which two partners grow toward one another, and good communication is essential to that growth. This has been the message of Pastor Chapman's popular radio program, "A Growing Marriage," as well as his books, videos, and seminars. In THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES, he acknowledges that any two people may give and receive love in very different ways. He identifies five "languages," or ways of communicating affection: Quality Time; Words of Affirmation; Gifts; Acts of Service; Physical Touch. He explains each, showing couples how an appreciation of their partner's "language" can make communication possible, strengthen the love bond, and lead to a growing marriage. THE FIVE LANGUAGES OF LOVE was first published in 1992, and has been a perennial seller since.

5 of 5 The book helped my friend Saturday, February 10, 2007
A Reader from Lindenhurst, IL
I have a friend who was letting his wife's calls go into voicemail. At the time, I had a hard time remembering her name.
I gave him a copy of this book. After two months of encouragement, he told me he had read the book. Since then, I have remembered his wife's name easily and when we're talking, he'll say, "Excuse me, it's my wife calling." Was this review helpful?  
5 of 5 Buy it Wednesday, February 07, 2007
A Reader from aliso viejo, ca
This was a surprisingly good book. It's an oldie, but goodie. My pre-marital counselors recommended it, along with many other couples. It's so simple, but fascinating. Who knew that love could be communicated in five very different ways? If you and your partner understand how each gives and receives love, you'll set the path for a solid, loving relationship. The book is an excellent gift for engaged couples and newlyweds! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 It's worth the effort Monday, January 15, 2007
Ed from Bolingbrook, IL
This book is an effort towards self discovery. I read this book at the suggestion of my brother after I told him how it was so difficult to get a compiment from my wife, even when I told her it was important to me. I would flood her with compliments and she'd give a polite "thank you" but it didn't seem to mean that much to her. If I could get back a fraction of that love, I thought, I would feel so much more secure in our relationship. This book explains that we were simply speaking different languages. She was telling me she loved me all along, but in different ways than those I could see. Understanding that has gone a long way in helping both of us feed each other what we need to feel appreciated in our relationship. Was this review helpful?
