Oh, I'm not kiddin' ya... My sleep is very fragile and once I wake up I can't go back to sleep for hours. Same goes for the time when I'm drifting to sleep. Once somebody decided it was cute to wake me up and tell me he loved me. Let's just say it wasn't appreciated and repeated. I like cuddling while sleeping, but the key word is "while sleeping"! Also, even though a queen bed is kind of small for two, if I want somebody in it and he doesn't snore, neither he nor I are going to the couch. That's as far as my softness goes!

I'm kind of the same way, I can't sleep when I am woken up, but whether she is a snorer or not I'll still want her to be in the same bed as I since I tend to sleep better with a woman in my bed.

Same bed. If he snores too loud I just go sleep on the couch. It hasn't been an issue in a long time. We have opposite work schedules so there are only a couple nights a week we actually spend the whole night together. The nights he gets off work at midnight he wakes me. We tried sleeping separately those nights but didn't like it. I can deal with a little less sleep if it means we actually see each other.

My hubby snores...sometimes loudly...but I guess I am the only fool who actually finds the sound comforting. (To be fair- his snoring is sort of a continuous white noise- no loud snorts or snuffles.)
When we are apart I don't sleep nearly as well.

Eh, some mild and intermittent snoring can be fixed with rolling him over once in a while.

Or just waking him up to tell him he's snoring.

Yep. We both prefer to sleep not touching. We tend to go drifting off with our hands together, holding or just touching, but at some point, before we actually fall asleep, we give each other a little squeeze, pull our hands back to ourselves, and get down to the business of sleep.

Just don't wake me up, I'm a horrible sleeper once I'm awake, I'm up. Ain't no good going to come of that situation!

[quote=PITTSTON2SARASOTA;20458615]I'm curious........in my early and shorter term relationships we always fell asleep together. However it seems many couples in years long relationships/marriages sleep in separate beds etc.


I couldn't..wouldn't..will never...have it any other way but together!!...and so it has been for more than 35 years......I also believe the bed should never be too large...so that (even if you're a bit pissed at your so)....you can't help but touch when you hit the sack.
