Momark left the poll running indefinately. Call me a sap, but I got all sentimental that something he started is still going. He didn't put an expiration date on his poll.
I didn't put an expiration date on my christmas tree poll either. I wonder if I'll outlive it.
And for the topic's sake, nothing feels better than curling up with your significant other in the same bed and going to sleep. I voted to share the same bed.
Good thread. Miss Momark.
As for this topic- I agree- whats the point of staying married if you are always sleeping apart? once in awhile/or snoring problems- yes, but IMO there are other issues as well
I thoroughly enjoy sleeping with my guy. He snores, has that occasional twitch in his leg right before sleep, and he flops now and then. But honestly, none of that bothers me. I am a stiff sleeper, and so is he, and so we have it a lot easier than some of you. And I feel badly for those that simply cannot do it. No judgment from these parts, but you're missing out on a lot.
One of our favorite things to do is fall asleep together. We'll be all curled up, holding each other late at night or on those lazy Sundays and doze off together. It's sweet. Frankly, I find him to be an adorable sleeper. He'll smile in his sleep if I kiss his face, and mumble he loves me in his sleep and put his arm around me even! And waking up to each other is a beautiful thing in loving relationships. It's a flattering thing to have a man by your side all night long to protect you and keep you warm or a woman that doesn't care about your manly flaws and will stay with you anyway.
Sharing a bed together in my opinion is one of the most beautiful parts of marriage. I guess it just represents commitment and passion to me. Not to say those of you who don't share a bed aren't passionate or committed and don't love your spouse. But in my case, I am deeply in love and wouldn't ever want to wake up and not have that lump in the covers beside me. He's my best friend.

Ideally, I'd agree with you, but I need sleep, too. I can't sleep with a heavy snorer. The one time this happened we slept in different rooms.
i love sleeping next to my girlfriend and wouldn't have it any other way. nothing is better than sharing her body with mine. when we both lie on our sides and face the same direction where i am behind her...wow, great sleep. plus it makes the mornings more fun. maybe it would get old after years but i wouldn't have it any other way.
I like sleeping in the same bed as my DH. Only thing is he likes having the TV on to fall asleep. I sometimes can't sleep with it on. He also snores and that keeps me up.
It would be a problem for us. The only time we slept separate was when our marriage was really in trouble. He was drinking and, I swear, snores more when he drinks (though the alcohol expert who evaluated him told me there is nothing to support that). I couldn't sleep with the snoring. For some reason I'm more tolerant of it now but he does snore less now that he's not drinking.
I have a friend who has been married 29 years. They have seperate rooms. Their marriage is not good. they have not been intimate for about 13 years. He snores too much for her. This is my friend of 43 years who I refer to as Eeorye because she so pessimisstic. I keep in contact because I am her only friend and we grew up together. I need breaks from her though cause she can bring me down.
I have another friend married almost 30 years. They have not been sexual for about 25 (His problem) but are so close in every other way no one would ever know. They would not sleep apart ever. She is used to the no sex and is now retired so could care less. They are the best of friends however and have a great relationship otherwise.

Maybe I'm still in the honeymoon era, but...
I snore.
