Language of Love with Dr. Laura Berman

The One Question That Could Make or Break Your Relationship


Listen Later

They say love is enough—but is it really? What if one simple question could reveal whether your relationship is built for long-term growth… or destined to quietly fall apart?

In this Language of Love Bite, we explore the subtle but powerful force that separates short-lived connection from lasting partnership: mutual inspiration. This isn’t about how often you laugh together or whether you share a Spotify playlist. It’s about whether you feel proud of who you’re becoming with this person—and if your future selves are being shaped by love, not stifled by it.

You’ll also learn a 2-minute reflection exercise (called “The Mirror Test”) that just might change the way you look at your relationship forever. Let’s dive in!

What You’ll Learn:

  • The one question that can predict whether your relationship is built to last

  • Why growth—not just chemistry—is the real glue in long-term love

  • Key signs your partner supports your evolution (and red flags they might not)

  • How admiration and inspiration fuel deeper connection

  • Simple ways to check in on growth—monthly rituals, vision sharing, and more

  • How to use journaling to reinforce love, even in small everyday moments

  • “The Mirror Test”: A quick exercise to assess who you’ve become in this relationship—and who you’re becoming

    Because true love doesn’t just feel good. It helps you grow.

    Want to see how your relationship is really doing? Start with my free quiz and explore 7 Days to Better Sex, a gentle path toward more connection, honesty, and intimacy.
