I first read The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman 6 years ago. I was single at the time. I think? But I remember thinking that I am going to suggest my next "serious" girlfriend read it so that I know "how to speak to her" using her individual Love Language. It is a very insightful book that really opens your mind about how each one of us percieves love and the love of our partners. You see Chapman discovered through research that everyone has a Love Language or a specific way that love needs to be expressed to them which will "fill their (love) tank." At the end of the book there is an Assessment that will reveal your Love Language. I had JLR read it about a year and a half ago. Interesting results, to be sure!

I like this book, but it sort of makes me gag at the same time. But I do think the basic principles are true.
