This book was amazing. It was recommended to me by a married friend of mine while my boyfriend and I were going through a rough time. It really helped me realize that everyone expresses love in different ways. Once you realize your own love language, and the love language of your mate, it makes expressing love so much easier. You learn to appreciate things that they do or say to you. I learned that when I was receiving gifts I didn't appreciate it as much as other people might, because that's not my primary love language. I think this book is great for anyone: single or married, young or old. The messages in The Five Love Languages are helpful to everyone, and will make your love life more fulfilling!
