It took all I could do to get my wife to attend one of Dr. Chapman’s events. By the lunch break we were looking at each other differently because we spoke entirely different languages. At lunch we had a very interesting discussion that was filled with “you really like…”, “you prefer vacuuming to gifts….”, and “wow”. When the event ended we were nearly racing each other to get to the books and audios. Our good marriage became a GREAT MARRIAGE and a beautiful friendship. People ask us all the time what our “secret” is, we just smile and say “The 5 Love Languages.” When we are invited to a wedding we give the couple two copies “The Five Love Languages” book as our gift. When we see friends’ marriages in trouble we give them each a copy of the book. Words cannot express how thankful we are that G-d sent Dr. Chapman and his teachings into our life.

I’m not married yet, but I read the book and it has completely changed my interaction with family members, friends, and co-workers. I’m more attuned to their needs and I respond accordingly. This book has truly changed all of my relationships… for the best! My primary love language is words of affirmation which explains all of the notes and cards I have amassed over the years. I do feel loved when people say they appreciate me and the things I do for them. My secondary love language is acts of service. I do go out of my way to make someone else feel special… This book (along with my Bible) will secure better relationships in the future. My future husband must read this book. Like many of the stories presented here, it will save us from many disappointments, confusion, and hurt. This book will not only improve his relationship with me, but his relations to his family, friends, and co-workers. My future husband will be a lucky man!

I never knew that people had love languages. I just thought that people just felt loved just whenever. Now that I took this quiz I see that I feel very loved when my boyfriend hugs me, tells me he loves me, and gives me small gifts ever now and then. My number one love language is Physical Touch. I realized that physical touch is not just about being impure or not keeping my mind and body pure. It’s about little hugs and kisses that make you feel loved. My second love language was Words of Affirmation. Not really him telling me he is proud of me, but him telling me he truly loves me and that he misses me. I started to think about it and this is the same way God feels about me. He wants me to tell him that I love him and for me to talk to him. This whole quiz changed the way I thought about the word “love” and what it means.

I have read Dr. Chapman’s book in the past, and have really enjoyed the books. This year I picked up the one on marriage and it has really helped. We as a couple are always looking for a new lease on life. We are not ones of money or things, we just like to have love in the home and a little intimacy. Because of my work with the book and sharing what I have learned with my husband, our home has been loving and sexy. Of course the husband is very happy. Intimacy is so important to man. We now sit on couch in the morning instead of two chairs as we visit. He has found out I need to be touched 12 out of 24 hours and yes we both work and have two kids at home. Our 25 wedding anniversary is just around the corner and this change could not have happened at a better time. We have always loved each other and now like Gary has stated our love has moved to a greater step in life.

My husband and I were introduced to the 5 love languages about 10 years ago. At that time we were missing each other big time. After we took the test we discovered our languages were almost mirror opposites of each other. To have that knowledge has been a life saver and made our marriage a true romance story. Now, we continue to use this knowledge for our marriage, but also for our 5 children. ( see it does work, we only had 2 when we first took the test). We also use it in the church we pastor as a teaching tool for our couples. I will always be a huge fan and promoter of your book.
