Not that the apology isn't necessary, but we either don't apologize in the manner that means the most or we apologize so often that it doesn't mean anything. I also believe it's important to know what you're apologizing for. Too often my wife has said, "I don't know what I did wrong, but I'm sorry." My response is always, "then why are you apologizing?" That might go along with accepting responsibility. How can you accept responsibility if you don't know what for?Thanks guys for the great posts!

Actually it's pretty common for people to have multiple Love Languages. In fact the book talks more about this, but all the love languages are important, it's just that there is usually one (and sometimes two) that really speak to you more than the others, I happen to have two really close to the top also, 1) Quality Time and 2) Physical Touch. Like I said the book explains it much better, than I can, but it's not uncommon to have a couple ranked really close together. Sure, Tammie.

I am looking forward to reading it. I recently ordered the 5 love languages (men's addition and the normal edition for my fiancee) so I am still waiting on them to come, I will start the men's addition as soon as I get it. Thank you for your ministry Gary. I am hoping to buy this book when I can afford it. I am looking forward to reading it.
