⭐El autor ha sabido cómo adaptar los cinco lenguajes del amor a prácticamente cualquier relación. Ya había leído el libro dedicado a parejas pero este está dedicado a los solteros y está excelente.

⭐Not found.

⭐I like this author

⭐Great read!

⭐Arrived in good condition. A easy to read book..I enjoyed this

⭐Before stumbling upon The 5 Love Languages I had no idea that there was a proper way to love the people in my life. Reading these books has taught me so much about what I need to feel loved and what those closest to me need from me to feel loved. It’s a must read if you want to improve relationships with EVERYONE in your life. Something as simple as learning your own love language and the love languages of others can make a world of difference in the quality of your life and relationships.

⭐Everyone that want or need a relationship with another person needs to invest in this self help book thanks

⭐Five years ago, in the context of a volunteer team, I was introduced to “the five love languages.” It’s the concept that every expression of love falls into one of five basic categories. Now, for the first time, I read one of Gary Chapman’s books on the subject, The 5 Love Languages: Singles Edition. It explores this concept from the viewpoint of various singles (never married, widowed, divorced). According to the Goodreads rating system, “it was amazing”—that’s 5/5 stars from me.As an avid story-lover, I thoroughly enjoyed Gary Chapman’s use of true stories to illustrate how an awareness of the five love languages has helped people cultivate, mend, or excel in their various relationships. Romantic, familial, platonic—the nature of the relationship doesn’t matter. Of course, he’s promoting his idea, so it’s not in his interest to share instances of failure. Nonetheless, the book’s versatile selection of success testimonies inspires confidence that there is great insight to be found in this philosophy. It’s evident that the author really believes what he teaches.There are some nuances or side points of The 5 Love Languages: Singles Edition that I question, but for the most part, it was an enriching read. The languages of love that this book teaches are “Words of Affirmation,” “Acts of Service,” “Receiving Gifts,” “Quality Time,” and “Physical Touch.” Though it isn’t common knowledge in the general public, it seems intuitive, once explored, that different expressions of love will hold different levels of importance to different individuals. For one person, uplifting and affirming words are the key to the heart, while for another it’s quality time. In His Word, God exhorts us to look not only to our own interests but also to the interests of others (Philippians 2:4) and to consider how to stir up one another to love and good deeds (Hebrews 10:24). The fact is, while we all need love (from both God and people), our interests look different at a grassroots level. It takes thoughtful consideration to know what will stir up love in another. I really appreciate the attention this book gives to exploring the dynamics of human relationships.The 5 Love Languages: Singles Edition by Gary Chapman was insightful and delightful, hence the 5/5 stars I give it. I would be interested in reading more of his spinoffs based on the core concept of the five love languages, and I would recommend this book to anyone interested in exploring the dynamics of human relationships as God has made it.

⭐Why I Choose this Book:I was first introduced to the 5 Love Languages about six or seven years ago when I was in my late teens, and my world was literally changed. Around that time I read one of the 5 Love Languages books, but I’m not sure what edition. I figured it was time to do a refresher course, hence the reason for requesting this book.What I Thought about this Book:If I hadn’t already known about the 5 Love Languages and a lot of the material in this book, I think I would have had millions of light bulb moments going off. This book is a treasury of so much helpful information and explanations and logic that it’s crazy.For those of you who don’t know, the 5 Love Languages are 1) Words of Affirmation 2) Physical Touch 3) Quality Time 4) Acts of Service and 5) Gifts. These are the five primary way that people give and receive love. It’s amazing how much sense this makes after you’ve studied it for a bit. Then pieces start falling into place, and the relationships you have can be greatly enhanced just by learning how to speak other people’s primary love languages.I was a bit surprised how much of the book focused on the romantic side of the love languages (how to treat someone you’re dating, etc…), but I’m not saying that’s a bad thing. I’ve just found the love languages work incredible well for everyone – including family, friends, and even somewhat distant friendships such as co-workers. The book does go into how to apply the love languages to all the above situations, just not to the extreme that I had imagined it would.If you ever feel like you’re not connecting with people well – especially those who you should have a good relationship with, such as family members, then this book will most likely revolutionize your relationships. It is so eye opening and practical. I’m incredibly thankful to have learned how to relate to people better.Conclusion:There were a few places with a bit of content that I wouldn’t be okay giving to children, but that’s perfectly fine, because it wasn’t written for children. (For instance on the chapter about physical touch being one of the love languages, they talk briefly about abuse. But, they handle everything in a way that I found very appropriate.)I don’t agree with everything that’s in the book, but for the most part the information is incredibly helpful and totally spot-on. I highly recommend the book.Rating:I’m giving The Five Love Languages: Singles Edition 5 out of 5 stars, and 10 out of 10.*I received this book from Moody Press

⭐Having not read any of the other love language books before, I actually found this very interesting. I was able to clearly idenify my own love language and got useful insight into the love languages of my nearest and dearest. I did notice the Christian undertone of the author in parts of the book as other readers had mentioned, but I was not overly bothered by this. It is a useful tool for gaining insight on how to improve your relationships in general by learning to communicate in a way that the other person feels validated and therefore, loved.

⭐I was persuaded to buy and read this by a new girlfriend who wanted to know what my Love Language is. Apparently this Love Language idea has had a bit of a resurgence recently although it dates back to the early 1990sBeing of a scientific mind, I read it with a view to understanding how the method could work. What I was was not prepared for was the amount of religious (mainly Christian) values on which the the author based this entire system. It’s like they are still in the 1950s.If you are emotionally stunted then I suppose this Love Language idea might give you a framework within which to have a conversation with your partner and overcome your neediness. However, most mature adults can, and should, cope well without it.

⭐The cover doesn’t highlight the fact it is a religious book, however author speaks about God, praying, Christianity, etc. in every chapter.I don’t have anything against it, however, this is not the sort of book I was looking for and this misrepresentation was disappointing. The whole book thus is a disappointment for me. 2nd star just because the idea of languages is an interesting one.

⭐This is a wonderful and inspirational book on the subject of love and relationship and Christian teaching. Content of the first half of the book is a repeat of original book, 5 Love languages.

⭐Absolutely love this book. And would recommend it to anyone.Makes you look at things different and how relationships could work out better and last a life time if we all knew how to speak eachothers love language and understanding eachothers love language.I will learn alot from this book to having more lasting meaningful relationships deffinately.This book will help you grow emotionally as a person.
