I remember reading an article on CNN’s website a few weeks ago that talked about sleeping in separate beds. I guess something like 30% of couples have separate sleeping habits due to sleep disorders, snoring or tossing and turning. Separate meaning anything from occasional issues to permanently each having their own rooms. It works great for many couples and if it leads to a happy and healthy relationship or marriage then you definitely can’t knock it.

I enjoy my husband’s warmth. And so does everyone else in my household. including the cats.

When I travel or Mrs G travels, I don’t sleep all that well.

We both keep to our own side… I generally sleep stationary, right at the edge of the bed.

I totally get that sleeping separate thing…we do it often, particularly when one of us is sick. It’s just so NICE to have your own bed…especially when you have small kids and can feel a trifle SMOTHERED all day long (to say the least)And I hope you’re feeling better…?

Hope you’re feeling better! I wish I had a nickel now for everything that my parents did when I was a kid that I thought was weird or swore I’d never do…

I’ve been captivated by the name of your blog for some time now and thought I’d hop over and take a look. And I like what I see.

And, don’t tell anyone, but I know exactly what you mean!

Feel better soon!

I would be curious to know what the men think.

I know it’s pretty important to my boyfriend that we sleep together. How do I know this? Because when we first started going out, he would spend the night with me, even though all I had was a twin bed.

It’s always interesting to hear how other couples arrange their lives.

My wife and I sleep in the same bed and always have done, so far, in our 9 year marriage, but occassionaly my snoring prevents my wife getting to sleep and we wish we had another room so that we could sleep separately.

I can’t get to sleep if I am in contact with her, so after a cuddle it’s always “off to our own sides” of the bed.

It’s a tough one. I read a piece once that said that it’s dangerously easy to get used to having a little child in your bed (because there’s not a toddler in the world that doesn’t like the security of being with his parents) and push one of the adults out. Personally, though I love sleeping on my own. It’s heaven. But it’s easy to read it as disloyalty. Thought-provoking stuff.
