Any Couples Sleep Separately??
34 Answers
I go and sleep in the spare room so often now that I might as well be in there !
I get so hot at night in bed that I have to have the ceiling fan on, even tho our bedroom radiator is turned off and already cool, and even tho I hardly wear anything, I’m still always boiling hot , so much so that I cannot get a wink of sleep without the fan on. But after a while MrSnow admitted he absolutely hated it on. So I started trying to persevere with the fan on but just couldnt cope with being so hot, so I would start the night in our bed, but after an hour or so I would end up going into spare room where there is a huge pedestal fan, and I would finally get some much needed sleep. Now I end up in there most nights.
I suspect that this extreme being hot is largely down to what I assume is me going thru the menopause but whether it is or not we still have completely different sleeping preferences now - he hates the fan in and I need it on.
I just always feel bad going into a separate room, even tho I know that’s silly to think that.
Anyone else sleep separately a lot from their OH?

I do know some couples who sleep separately. First lot because of his heavy snoring and the others because they were long divorced and used to living and sleeping alone.
I'd hate it - but I have contemplated it when MrJ2 has a nightmare and lashes out (not often thank goodness).
As long as you both understand why you are doing it and you talk it through, I think you'll be OK.
My arthritis is so bad at the moment that I want the electric blanket on at 'low' all night - it makes the difference between sleeping and spending the night snatching naps between almost crying with pain. Mr. J2 is bravely putting up with the heat at the moment.
Good luck - perhaps you should ask your doctor about the heat?

I get like that at times, Smow. Plus, OH coughs a lot, has always suffered with cattarrh, plus, he snores sometimes, and its like sleeping with a ferret! I've never known such a fidget.
I did sleep in spare room for a few weeks not so long ago. I actually like it. My OH gets upset and lonely, so I'm back in with him....for a while :-)
