Preview:

The core thesis of pastor/marriage counselor Gary Chapman's most popular book, New York Times best seller The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts, is that "[m]ost in our society have not yet the learned the difference between in love and real love" (133). Chapman begins by outlining these two loves, as they apply to a marriage:

Romantic love, which is akin to obsession, is an irrational, temporary, powerful, quasi-biological state that lasts roughly two years, full of madness and elation and a (possibly superficial) complete absorption of the self into another. This contrasts to emotional love, which is complicated, disciplined, rational, intentional, and ultimately enduring. People fall into patterns, and as polemical as Chapman's thinking and explanations can sound, his advice is earnest and clear.

Lovable Book

So Refreshing and info that I did'nt even know I needed! Our marriage was in a rut & I can honestly say that when trying some suggestions from the book my wife immediately responded. She even wanted to listen to the book with me and we discussed things as we listened. It has brought us so much closer and helped us to connect again while learning more about ourselves and each other.

relationship growing book

incredibly useful book

I found this book to be incredibly useful I'm glad I didn't waste my time reading the entire book because the summary was perfect. it captured the essence of the book in a short period of time. The summary is too short so in order to understand and fix the concept it was enough for me.

Loved it!

Loved it! Now I have to do it. At least I feel equipped going into it and I don't feel so lost. I feel this book has shed some light in how to tackle the challenges I face in my marriage.

Good and Quick Summary

This is just what it purports to be: a good quick summary of a much longer work. If you are interested and want more, buy the book. It would be nice if these were free, but someone has to bear the costs of preparing a summary and making it available. I thought this one was quite clear. I also think that in many cases, the central idea of a non-fiction book can be summarized in a few paragraphs or pages and that the rest is all padding with examples. This summary is a wonderful time-saver.

Very Informative Book

Discover and speak your spouse love language - in dozens of ways!
Use the love languages to help your life Companion learn best
Love and correct more lovingly and effectively.

Unique Summary

Learn to speak and understand your mate's love language, and in no time you will be able to effectively love and truly feel loved in return. Skillful communication is within your grasp!

Thoughtful book

We all feel love in different ways, and we need to give and receive love in the ways that work best for us. Well read and informative. Though a lot of the information in this book is pretty much common sense, this book shines by explaining what common sense seems to leave out.

Useful Advice

It is a practical book that touches on a problem most couples experience - different ways of expressing love. Gary Chapman is equally funny and brilliant on his exposition of the love languages. I have successfully used and practiced the principles he teach in his book not only in my marriage but with dozens of couples I have mentored. It works!
