Subalansuota vyrams, bet tinka skaityti visiems. Paprastesnis, "lengvesnis" variantas nei originalas "Penkios meilės kalbos", bet puikus priminimas kai mylime, nevisad liekame suprasti, išgirsti, sulaukiame palaikymo. Pradžioje būtina perskaityti pradinę knygą, o po to su smalsumu gilintis į atskiras temas, kitas šakas.

I would give the philosophy behind the book [series] a 5; the book itself a 4, landing it at a 4.5.

Putting a measurable reason behind discrepancies in how couples communicate affection is outstanding. Finally being able to know how to best show my wife that I love her is only going to strengthen our marriage.

I will say that the the author's phraseology is geared toward someone with no prior knowledge of psychology, which is good and bad. Since I know a little bit, it did make this book a little harder to read, but I would still recommend it to anyone. I imagine you can help more people speaking more simply than not, since even seasoned readers on this type of subject will be able to digest it while others wouldn't have a chance otherwise.

Definitely a great book!

This book is mostly fluff, which is a shame, because I think some of the core ideas are pretty valuable. Even taking a moment to think about the different ways that different people express and receive love is a useful exercise, and Chapman seems to be onto something with his five languages. I also thought that the chapter on apologies had some useful frameworks to think through.

Unfortunately the useful parts of this book could distilled down to 5-10 pages. The rest is hackneyed references to stereotyped male interests - weak sports analogies abound. My hypothesis here is that this is some publisher's failure rather than the author's. I actually wish I'd read the original work. I think what's happened is that it has been repackaged and re-written to find another way to sell the ideas, and in the process has been reduced to a bit of a self-help caricature.

Ease of text should not relate to the quality of the text. Despite a lack of being moved by artificially synthesized “academic” jargon, I was called to these pages like a lover in a storm. Pouring through these pages as if they were made of shrapnel, burying deep into every angle of my core. As to serve as an antithesis of the way this text was written: simple, effective, and to the point.
This book is not written as an iceberg paralleling how most relationships may appear upon 1st glance, but was the message in a bottle that made its way to my shore while I was hungry for relief.

Short, sharp, and contains some pretty handy info about how different people may communicate their love with one another. Some of the references to partners are a little antiquated (consistently “wife” or “husband”), and there are a couple of smaller stereotypes in there, but as long as you can hurdle those the advise is sound and worth the read.

Came recommended, and did not disappoint.

I wasn't aware that the book is for married men until I have read it, yet this book helped me know my love language & my family's.

The book focuses on treating your loved one (wife in this edition) as she would want to be treated. The author keeps the focus on the reader to do the right thing and to do it with kindness, love and respect.

This approach was refreshing and resonated with me on many levels. This edition was written for men but is broadly applicable in its themes. Recommended for all and especially for those who wish to align their heart’s desire with clarity and understanding.

I was recommended to listen this by my therapist; well not the “men” version, just the book but I was surprised that “for men” version was 3 times shorter and I value my time to get straight to the point, so choose to listen this one. Appreciate main idea and we managed to quickly see which languages are applicable for me and my partner, so going to practice now.

interesting and willing to apply some of the concepts, I gave it four stars because it pushes maybe too much in fixing every every relationship and also it seems like every relationship is miraculously saved by the advise with disregard the effort needed to be put in.

The reading was a little difficult at me for times. However, the concept and the understanding that came from this book has changed every relationship I have had since for the better. It is a wonderful way to get insight on your own needs and actions, the actions and motivations of others, and figure out how to compromise for everybody's benefit.
