counseling sessions. Thousands of couples will attest to the
validity of what you are about to read. My files are filled with
letters from people whom I have never met, saying, “A
friend loaned me one of your tapes on love languages, and
it has revolutionized our marriage. We had struggled for
years trying to love each other, but our efforts had missed
each other emotionally. Now that we are speaking the
appropriate love languages, the emotional climate of our
marriage has radically improved.”
When your spouse’s emotional love tank is full and he
feels secure in your love, the whole world looks bright and
your spouse will move out to reach his highest potential in
life. But when the love tank is empty and he feels used but
not loved, the whole world looks dark and he will likely never
reach his potential for good in the world. In the next five
chapters, I will explain the five emotional love languages
and then, in chapter 9, illustrate how discovering your
spouse’s primary love language can make your efforts at
love most productive.
