I wish I could sleep alone so I could actually get some sleep! My sleeptime consists of constantly nudging him because he's snoring. Sure, he'll stop for a few minutes - just long enough for me to start to fall asleep again - then the snoring starts again.

Mine takes up the bed... as in... I think I should have a few broken noses by now... but somehow I have avoided his elbow. AND he snores.. a lot..

We have went from a California King to a Queen.... HORRIBLE IDEA PEOPLE.


NEVER DOWNSIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even if the snuggles seem tempting (btw I am not a snuggle lady... I like my sleeping space.)

So yes.. at times I sleep in the guest bedroom or the sofa.. or we fight and I guilt him into "being a man" and taking the sofa.

Time apart makes for GREAT sleep.. unless its more than ONE night

Only when I have a bad cold and prefer to feel more comfortable to cough, sneeze, or stay up reading through being unable to sleep.

And even then I miss him dreadfully. I usually find I can't really sleep without him in the bed. 20 years together, I think we just got used to being with each other every night.

I sleep in my own bed every night. I need a queen size mattress to myself. I guess I am a "restless" sleeper.

When I was married, I slept out of the bedroom because we had a air conditioner that I was allergic to and he insisted of running it. That was the only way I could sleep or I would be sitting up all night sneezing.. odd I know... but true!

My daughter does not sleep with her husband because she is and always has been a extreemly light sleeper and his snoring shakes the walls!

I get my best sleep when its not with my BF. He has some annoying habits but mostly I just like to go wherever I want in the bed. Plus I really hate other people's breath on my face so I can't just lay towards him unless hes laying the other way. Luckily he gets up for work at about 4am so from then on I get my best sleep and I always take his spot in bed. Its been 6 years and I still haven't really changed in that regard. :P

There are nights that between him and the cat, I get one little corner to curl up in.

They both growl if I try to nudge them.

My best sleep is when he gets up and I get to burrow in all the pillows.

Well my bf snores and quite frankly I don't care - I figured it was a big enough problem where i couldn't sleep with him or he couldn't sleep with me then I would get the problem fixed.
I was just talking about every once in a while feeling the need to sleep alone.. Just to have space, not because of being sick or snoring etc.

Yes, really. And no, not single.

We have a very active "romantic" life, but when it comes to sleeping we each prefer our own bed.
