LOVE & RESPECT A wife has one driving need—to feel loved. When that need is met, she is happy. A man has one driving need—to feel respected. When that need is met, he is happy. When either of these needs isn’t met, things get crazy. Love and Respect reveals why couples react negatively towards each other and how they can deal with such conflict quickly, easily, and biblically.
