Abstract This study investigates the interplay between parenting styles, love languages, and conflict management styles in adult romantic relationships. It aims to explore the influence of parenting style experienced in childhood and individual's love languages on conflict management styles within adult romantic relationships along with the exploration of the relationship between parenting styles and love languages with a focus on gender differences as well. Recognizing the profound impact of early life experiences on adult relationship dynamics, this research aims to provide insights into how these factors shape and influence one another. The sample comprised 100 Indian heterosexual young adults, aged 18-30, who participated in online surveys assessing their experiences with parenting styles, preferred love languages, and conflict resolution approaches. The analysis reveals "Quality Time" as the most preferred love language across all parenting styles, indicating its significant role in relationship dynamics. While the study highlights various trends and associations, no statistically significant relationships were found between the three variables. This research contributes to the fields of psychology, family studies, and relationship counseling by emphasizing the interconnectedness of early life experiences and adult relational behaviors. Understanding these dynamics can lead to improved family interactions, enhanced relationship satisfaction, and better conflict management strategies, ultimately benefiting future generations
