[The Language of Love & Respect] by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs

Dr. Emerson Eggerichs' best-selling book, Love & Respect, is followed up here by The Language of Love & Respect: Cracking the Communication Code With Your Mate. Communication between couples is a huge marriage issue. Why? Because they're speaking two different languages and may not even know it! In this book, Dr. Eggerichs  gives a practical approach to communication between husbands and wives. They speak distinctly different languages; for him, respect. For her, love.

I will tell you right now that I am not actually married, but I am in a very committed relationship, so I could learn from this book as well. I very much enjoyed Dr. Eggerichs' stories and examples from his own life, and reading this book really helped me to realize just how differently men and women think and speak. The steps given for better communication seem applicable and certainly not impossible. I think this book has helped me to stop and think before getting upset over something my sweetheart did (or didn't) say.

My one problem with this book? It did feel slightly repetitive. It may just be to really get the principles into your head, but it was distracting to me. Overall, I did enjoy the read.
