Keep Forgetting My Love Language

Can we go deeper with love languages? Your hosts have 3 different views on how helpful love languages are and we discuss it with no holds barred and collaboration. Today we focus on skills that come out of this space: directness, making agreements and meta conversations.  These are advanced skills for any couple.

For those who don’t know what “The 5 Love Languages” are, it is a concept and book by Dr Gary Chapman. His premise is that everyone has a primary “language” and that if you speak one language and your partner speaks another, you cannot understand each other. He defines the languages as this: quality time, words of affirmation, acts of services, physical touch, and quality time.
