challenging informative inspiring relaxing fast-paced

amazing book! very helpful and necessary advice for relationship building. can’t wait to read the singles, & teen versions, which will be even more relevant to me

The last two chapters made me wanna tear the pages out and watch them grind through a shredder one by one.

Hadn’t considered that this applies to kiddos too. I think Connor is words of affirmation, Alanna is physical touch, Keegan and Loralei are quality time.

I’m squarely somewhere between words of affirmation and physical touch (I’m a hugger).

Anyway - really good book, would definitely recommend.

As cinco linguagens do amor foi um livro que sempre esteve na minha TBR mas sempre encontrava um motivo pra adiar a leitura.
Gary Chapman é um antropólogo e conselheiro conjugal que estudou muito tempo o comportamento nos relacionamentos e chegou à conclusão existem padrões na hora de dar e receber amor, ele chamou esses padrões de as linguagens do amor.
Ele explica cada uma delas é exemplifica contando casos de seus pacientes.
Entre elas temos:
- palavras de afirmação
- tempo de qualidade
- presentes
- atos de serviço
- toque físico
Ele ensina que não necessariamente teremos as mesmas linguagens do amor dentro de um relacionamento e estimula os seus pacientes a usar a linguagem do amor do seu parceiro para que ele se sinta amado.
Achei o livro bem escrito e bem didático.

too Christian. Too heteronormative.

too long winded. was excited to start this book due to all i’ve heard but the content is better suited as an article (and has been regurgitated so many times that i already understood all of the languages). abandoned after 30 min

Good, fast read. Informative, but si ce I'm single, hard to put into practice. Good to know going forward

DID NOT FINISH

Gross Christian Evangelical propaganda

Felt a little oversimplified, cheesy and redundant at times. But the foundational concepts of the 5 Love Languages are undoubtedly useful for many–when tailored to that specific couple and their unique histories, personalities, cultures and needs.

Practical advice for connecting with the one you love <3
