Married After Kids

Ep. 136: Why The Love Languages Might Not Be Working for You


Listen Later

We all have preferences for how we give and receive love. Learning the love languages of both you and your spouse is a powerful tool to ensure that both of you feel deeply loved. But you may be surprised to know that it can create challenges for some couples. 

 

Tune into this episode as we explore:

  • Overcoming challenging thoughts, such as “my marriage will never work” or “my spouse doesn’t care about speaking my love language”

  • How to use love languages in the right way (*an absolute game-changer in my own marriage*) 

  • What to do when you and your partner have different love languages (especially when it feels hard)

  • The danger of putting too much pressure on speaking each other’s love language

  • Discerning whether love languages are effectively working in your marriage
