My husband's primary love language is Words of Affirmation. dontknow

Five Love Languages - Gary Chapman - 30 second test

We are very new to "in recovery" and I would love some suggestions to fill his love bank. It seems I have been doing a really poor job over the years and he went elsewhere to fill it!

Any suggestions for verbal, letters, poems, text messages etc would be greatly appreciated.

My journey to recovery

Thank you kiss

2Much, what are his top EN's? Have y'all taken the EN questionaraire? IMO, the MB program is the best thing out there and it really does work. It is also the most comprehensive.

Thanks ML. I would love him to take the EN's but he is only home for the kids and not for M recovery at this stage.

The 30 second quiz was the only quick gauge I could go for safely.

I have had the EN's questionnare printed and in my briefcase for 3 months and there never seems to be a right time.

My thread if you're interested is Advice please for recovery - my husband just moved home
