Is this supposed to be a “Christian” book? The bible clearly defines marriage roles: Christ is the head of the husband, the husband is the head of the wife, and the wife is to submit to her husband. If every couple did this, there would be no divorce. It doesn’t matter which love language you speak, if you are in rebellion to the Lord and refuse to take the role you were created to fulfill, you will not have a happy marriage. This is a scary book that will put band aids on a lot of miserable situations. If you want to know how to fix your marriage, read the book of Ephesians. Stop being so emotional and take some responsibility for yourself!

Marriage is an institution that reflected the economy of an agrarian nation. Single family farms do not exist in suburbia. Trying to cram yourselves into an arrangement that was created to have many children to help with the endless physical work needed to survive is making the USA c r a z y and idiots like Ophra and Dr. Phil filthy rich selling how to make it work!

I’ll make this short and sweet. Before I read this travesty, I was generally pretty happy with my love life. I had had several good relationships with women, but then I read this and followed it’s advice, and I have barely talked to a woman since. Avoid this like AIDS.

This book is an interesting but indirect approach to improving love between couples. Its philosphy of using improved love to improve lovemaking has real merit. I know that when I feel closer to my husband the sex is always better. But there are alot of non-emotional, technique-oriented factors that can contribute a LOT to having great sex, and this book doesn’t go into that with any meaningful contributions. If you are wanting something of that ilk, you’d do well with the book “9 Free Secrets of New Sensual Power” or the DVD “New Free Sex” by Clint Arthur, or if you really feel like being nice to yourself, have them send you “Goddess Worship” and have your guy follow along with the guy in the video. After that it will be you Expressing!

Nothing more than antidotal information collected through connections with the extremely religious! I’ve encountered people who have read the book using laughable phrases such as “my love tank is full”. If you really want to understand communication styles stick with people who have done the research and have the credentials. Deborah Tannen has written several well-researched books that are helpful in improving communication in interpersonal relationships.
