Sleeping in separate beds to partner

[fez]

So, how many of you do this on a regular basis? I find that I don't sleep nearly as well when we are in the same bed. Shes like 5'2" and we have a king size bed but she somehow manages to take up loads of the bed and I find myself waking up numerous times in the night.

I slept in the spare bedroom last night and it was lovely. Smaller bed, not so comfy but just having the space on my own allowed me to sleep much better.

She is however taking this as a sign of the apocalypse and that its a slippery slope (not sure to where).

So, do any of you lot sleep in separate beds occasionally to get some proper sleep.

I sleep better with my girlfriend than without.

If one of us has a really bad cold / flu I will sleep downstairs with the dogs rather than listen to coughing or subject her to it. Does that count?

Me and my wife have only slept in the same bed once in the last 3months, but thats mainly because our 1 year old sleeps really badly in his cot, so she sleeps with him on the spare double bed.

I sleep so well!!

My partner and I have slept in separate beds in separate rooms for many years as I tend to a nocturnal beast and was disturbing her nightly by putting the TV or PC.

Cannot see what the issue is unless your wife/GF is insecure and needs to live the stereotypical way as deemed normal by society.

But we are probably older than you and comfortable with each other that we do not feel that we have to sleep as in sleep together to show that our relationship is fine.

I snore so I get a bed to myself, love it fantastic night sleep and I get to spread out.

Poop in her pillowcase.

I hate sleeping without my wife or some women in the bed with me. My wife I think sleeps better alone.

Why not both? .

I must admit I enjoy sleeping with a partner but after a while of it happening every night I'm begging for my bed to myself .

Keys in the bowl on the coffee table, I assume.

Ah so you beat your woman over to her side of the bed. Interesting

Yeah Terry and June do it.

My Mrs can't sleep properly without me in the bed where as I sleep like a log when she isn't there. It's just Women dude, can't live with 'em, can't kill 'em.

My wife snores, really really badly. So if she has a cold/infection she is even worse.

Unless I get to sleep first I can't deal with the snoring so go and sleep on the sofa.

She doesn't take offence and understands that if I don't get at least 7hours I am a very grumpy bear the next day.

We enjoy each others company in a king size bed.

It took me more than a year to get used to sleeping in the same bed with my girlfriend. I use to have the same as you, but now I've adjusted and it's fine.

May I ask how long you've been together?

One of us will go to the spare room if the other is ill, I suspect I sleep better alone as does she but she's not willing to give up "extra warms" for separate beds. I do have obstructive sleep apnoea which doesn't help either of us though with a machine on all night.

Women are natural born bed hoggers. It is the way of things.
