S1: Brian writes. Gary, what if I'm speaking all of my

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,800
S1: wife's love languages, but she's not speaking mine in return?

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,040
S2: Well, if you honestly, truly are speaking her love language,

4
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:16,160
S2: and if she genuinely feels your love, then you can

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,439
S2: make requests of her and you can say, honey, you

6
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,880
S2: know something I'd like for you to do? And you

7
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,239
S2: tell her something that's in keeping with your love language.

8

S2: And because she is feeling your love, she's more likely

10
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,839
S2: that sooner or later, she's just going to reach out

11
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,760
S2: and speak my language. No, it's all right to make

12
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,200
S2: requests of her. And so essentially, you're teaching her how

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:45,240
S2: to speak your love language by making specific requests. Chances

14
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:46,800
S2: are she's going to respond.
