The secret of love that endures
Someone craves attention, another for praise; for someone gifts are very important, for another a changed light bulb or a pressed shirt, and another needs a physical touch. The audiobook will explain each of these languages, help you discover the love language of you and your partner, and learn how to speak it practically. The goal is not to clear up confusion about the words love or loving, but to focus on the expressions of love that are essential to our emotional health.
Gary Chapman says that one of the causes of misunderstanding in marriage is that each of us speaks a different love language. In his more than 30 years of counseling experience, he has identified five love languages: Words of assurance, Attention, Accepting gifts, Acts of service, Physical touch.
When we identify and learn to speak our partner's love language, we have discovered the key to a long-lasting, loving marriage relationship. Love doesn't have to evaporate after marriage, but to keep it alive, we need to work on learning to speak our partner's love language. We cannot make do with our own language if we do not understand it. If we want him to understand and feel our love, we must express it in his language.
