Book Review/Summary - The Five Love Languages (Gary Chapman)

  1. Words of Affirmation - Being told nice things, that they are appreciated, or did a good job.
  2. Quality Time - Being with someone.
  3. Receiving Gifts - getting something from someone
  4. Acts of Service - Having someone do something for them
  5. Physical Touch - being in contact physically with someone
Chapman claims that these are exhaustive and that a person should give another the love language that the loved ones can received, not the ones they themselves as the giver of the love like most. He also claims everyone needs all of these, although to varying degrees. Lastly, he claims that most problems between loved ones stem from not receiving the love in the language they can receive.
