The 5 Love Languages for Men: Tools for Making a Good Relationship Great Paperback – January 1, 2015

This book has changed my perspective for the better. It is very prescriptive in its approach, but that's just what I needed. Not only can I better understand the love expressed by others in their unique way, but I have a better concept of how to express love in different "languages" and even "dialects." My understanding of others has greatly improved. I'm more excited to think of different ways to express my love. I just can't say enough about this book. It is well worth a second read as well just to be reminded of all the important messages. It also includes portions about controlling anger and apologies.The book doesn't contain information that's mind blowing, but the way it's presented can be life changing for some. It's the package deal on how to be a better lover.

This book is the most important book you can buy, not only is it good for your significant other but it can be applied to literally every relationship in your life. It’s helped me become a better person towards my family and friends and they all noticed the change as well in me. 10/10 everyone needs to read this and the female version of it

For a long time I've wondered what my love language is in particular because they all sound good to me. I love receiving stuffed animals from my husband so maybe it is gifts. But then I also adore undivided attention when we watch movies nearly every night, so maybe it is quality time. When my husband empties the dishwasher that is good so maybe it is acts of service. Well how about a compliment, that is nice too. I think I'm greedy, I want it all. lol So don't think your wife will only like just one love language. Maybe she wants touch, quality time and acts of service too.This book explains what the typical differences are in what men and women want in regards to love languages. It also wisely explains how to apologize to a woman in a sincere way that will make her melt. It deals with anger and women want less of that!At the end of the book there are two tests, one for him, one for her. You can then figure out what each other's love languages are. As the books says, sometimes you are bilingual. Also there are various dialects.This book also makes you realize why sometimes the love language works and at other times it does not get the points you think you are getting. Like when a woman is really busy, some things mean more than others. While she's in the kitchen she might want help with the kids instead of touch or when she is feeling down she might want a compliment to make her feel appreciated.So I think learn all the love languages and use them wisely. I'm a fan! Any man who adds these languages to his skill set is going to be way more desired than usual. Women pay attention and this is a way of getting your point across. Oh and at the end of the chapters there is an easy "phrase book" so you get tips on specific things you can do to speak each language.I'm giving this book to my husband and I really hope he reads it! I'm also happy I read it because I've got myself more figured out. To my husband I say more love languages please!!!!~The Rebecca Review

There is no real difference in terms of what you will take away from this book if you already read the original. This book gives you some manly homework, some insight into conflicts with perspectives that I did not think of. Suffice it to say, reading this book helped me grow as a person and helped with my relationship. You come out on top as a man since this book helps keep your cool.Basically what I'm trying to say is: If you never read any Love Language book and you want a more man-centric read. Get this and live it.

This book is a must read for everyone that is in a relationship or looking to get into one. It doesn't have all of the answers for a happy and healthy relationship but I believe it's a great conversation starter and good communication is key to any relationship.

This book is easy to read and easy to comprehend. The writing is attractive and helps the reader understand with ease the challenges and difficulties in relationships with their significant other and or other people in their lives. After reading this, I believe love is perception based and it is a matter of just changing how you see things to understand and feel loved. The part that hit close to home for me was in the end where a man who had gone to prison had wrote the author to tell how he had never felt love from his mother but after reading the book, realized she had loved him all along but not in a language he spoke and it wasn't until he was about to be locked away from her that she spoke to him in the language of touch and opened his mind. It brought tears to my eyes because I identified myself with that man having that internal struggle When Love Was there all along. Love is the motivating factor in practically all of our life decisions. With it, we feel we can conquer the world and without it we feel abandoned and scared. It is all a matter of perception. Love yourself, love your family, love your friends, and all those that are close to you and unknown to you and the world is not such a scary place after all. This book is definitely going to be on the top of my shelf.

Like the origin title written to couples generally, this book is thought-provoking, inspiring, and concrete. It is easy to see how the information and suggestions can be applied. The difference is that this work is written specifically to us men. We can understand and identify with what we read. I've been happily married for over 35 years, but I found plenty of advice that I can, should, and intend to apply. My suggestion to other men who seek a higher level of marital communication, love and happiness: read the book! And then implement it.

Glad there's a version for men
