The Language of Love & Respect; Cracking The Communication Code With You Mate by Dr. Emerson Eggerich
In this follow up book to Dr. Eggerich’s popular relationship book, “Love & Respect” you will most certainly gain a better understanding of the mixed messages your spouse sends you through out the day. If you’ve been married for more than a week, then this book is a must have on your night stand. Every couple is bound to face the communication issue in their marriage and unless you know how to decode what your spouse is telling you, you’ll repeatedly make the same mistakes and be left to wonder why nothing changes.
In “Cracking the Communication Code,” Dr. Eggerich explains that women and men communicate in a pink or blue code. Pink or love is how women communicate and blue or respect is how men communicate. Women want love and to feel loved while men want respect and to feel respected. Somehow we end up giving what we want to our mate and before we know we are on what Dr. Eggerich calls the “crazy cycle”
In this book you’ll learn through many practical examples how to jump off the crazy cycle an on to the rewarding cycle, and how to decode what your mate is trying to tell you.
I found the information throughout the book to help personally in my own marriage, and I now know when I’m communicating respect and how to run from the crazy cycle when it’s coming my way. The only negative thing I can say is that the author could have used a few less examples to convey the point. However, for some of us it takes lots of repetition for us to finally learn the lesson.
I chose this book as one to review for Thomas Nelson Publishing, and if you are struggling in your relationship with your spouse and can’t seem to get a breakthrough, then this is the book for you. It’s like counseling only cheaper:) Enjoy!
Sincerely,
Paige
