0:00.0	One thing I recommend for all relationships is figuring out what your love languages are and then communicating those to each other.
0:30.6	If you don't know what your own languages are, figure them out.
0:33.6	Can't be mad if someone's not filling up your love tank if you don't know what fills it. You need to be in touch with what your own love languages are and how you respond best.
