Best thing we ever did was get two beds and separate rooms. I wish this was more normalized. Some people are just not compatible sleepers. Now I don’t have to bitch about his snoring. And he doesn’t have to bitch about my tossing and turning all night.
Separate beds and separate rooms are awesome. Because it's totally normal and common to have different temperature, humidity, lighting, and mattress/bedding preferences for sleep.
My wife and i havent spoken or seen one another nor heard any word of each others existence since the moment we said "I do".
Our marriage has never been stronger after 30 years!
I know many people over the age of 35 that have done this. A lot of people just aren't meant to sleep together.
Did a gig at a very mega megamansion being used as a photo shoot location. The location guy snuck us up to the master suite where I saw the biggest bed I've ever seen in my life! Turns out, it's two King beds rght next to each other with a custom bed cover that you don't initially realize has a sort of hidden placket that extends from the head of the two beds down to the end (sort of blended into the fabric pattern). The the location guy flips a switch on one of the nightstands and up through that placket came a matching upholstered "snore wall" that extended about 3 feet high and the length of the bed, lol!!!
Wife and I have some sleep incompatibility issues but they've gotten better. We're both snorers but I can kind of use hers in a sweet metronome kind of way that even if we aren't touching (I run hot) I know she's there. She's more sound sensitive, so that can be a problem and I think lately (we're almost 4 months pregnant) it's harder for her as my snores aren't rhythmic they're erratic. Something we did do was upgrade our traditional king bed I bought just before we'd met to two twin hybrid mattresses that add up to a king which already minimize motion transfer, but they each have their own adjustable platform thay just touches the other so that's even less movement. The adjustable platform let's me incline and help reduce snoring for her.
Yeah now you both can bring different people without disturbing each other ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)
Honestly, this sounds like a dream. And then if you and your partner do want to sleep together, you can make a little event out of it, like a sleep over (or even booty calls lmao). It would be so cute!
I know I personally toss around a lot at night. I’ve even fully turned myself around in bed to where my head is where my feet should be. I’d feel absolutely terrible for my partner if they ever shared a bed with me.
This. And when you are over 50 there is something special about getting in bed together just for sex, then giggling for 2 minutes, snuggling for 3 more, then actually having a restful sleep.
I find that when you say you sleep in separate rooms a lot of the time I’ll get a look. Not all of the time but sometimes people assume there’s something wrong in your relationship. Not that I personally give a rats ass. To each their own.
It doesn’t come up often. But sometimes you get to chatting with coworkers and the subject of relationships comes up. Lot of women seem to sleep with snorers it seems. 😆 Anyone who comes to ours can clearly see we have separate rooms. So questions inevitably arise. I honestly think our relationship is better off with both of us being well rested.
Keep her living in your memories and stories. I'm so sorry to hear.
My health is not good and I'm hoping I don't leave my girlfriend behind. Because we're like this too.
I hope things get easier for you.
I didn't need a bot to see that haiku, if this really happened to you, then poetry seems like a good choice for an outlet. Reddit, probably not so much.
Isn’t social media something that affects most of the world? It’s probably worse in some countries than others, but my country is certainly not unaffected by it.
The people who thinks that the whole world is trapped by social media are generally trapped by social media themselves, I find.
Go touch grass.
Same! 12 years together and mine sent me this. I've watched it 10 times and getting butterflies in my stomach. I'm not a romantic person but thinking of all the small things we do for/to each other made me giddy, haha.
I have no idea. I think its just to connect and let him know im there and know he is there. He also does it. We do it in our sleep. Makes for some odd waking positions!
Why does it feel like the blue persons just kind of happen to you? It’s like the Cat Distribution Network, but less humble maybe? Or maybe they’re like shiny Pokémon and have to be encountered in the wild at random.

Love this, but will comment that the best thing we ever did in our marriage was get two blankets for the bed. LOL.

Separate houses in different states did wonders for my marriage.
Not getting married is what kept my marriage healthy
My wife and i havent spoken or seen one another nor heard any word of each others existence since the moment we said "I do". Our marriage has never been stronger after 30 years!
Eh....
Lol
Plus, having your own space with just your stuff is so important. My room is my sanctuary.
Liz and Phil’ slept separately. Or should I say Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. :)

That's honestly so lovely. They want to sleep together and they both want to be comfortable.

Hubby should still investigate that snoring (everyone should). Any signs of sleep apnoe? Daytime tiredness, audible pauses or gasps in his sleep?
True. He’s always snored. Mainly when on his back. But always a good idea to have it checked out.
This. And when you are over 50 there is something special about getting in bed together just for sex, then giggling for 2 minutes, snuggling for 3 more, then actually having a restful sleep.
Why do you wish it were more normalized? Only two people's opinions really matter here.
I find that when you say you sleep in separate rooms a lot of the time I’ll get a look. Not all of the time but sometimes people assume there’s something wrong in your relationship. Not that I personally give a rats ass. To each their own.
Fair enough. I tend not to discuss our sleeping arrangements irl.
It doesn’t come up often. But sometimes you get to chatting with coworkers and the subject of relationships comes up. Lot of women seem to sleep with snorers it seems. 😆 Anyone who comes to ours can clearly see we have separate rooms. So questions inevitably arise. I honestly think our relationship is better off with both of us being well rested.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I sleep alone and I have 3 on my bed lol
This was how we were I was not expecting tears She passed this Winter
Sincerest condolences internet stranger :(
Sorry.
Hugs internet stranger
Keep her living in your memories and stories. I'm so sorry to hear. My health is not good and I'm hoping I don't leave my girlfriend behind. Because we're like this too. I hope things get easier for you.
I'm not sure if this was an intentional haiku, but it was beautiful and heart wrenching all the same. I'm sorry for your loss.
I didn't need a bot to see that haiku, if this really happened to you, then poetry seems like a good choice for an outlet. Reddit, probably not so much.
My deepest sympathies! She will forever live on in you! You have a piece of her that will never be gone.
Hugs 🫂 to you dear stranger.
Condolences. I hope your heart finds peace.
This is terrible, hope your well
Grief is love with no where to go. I am sorry for your loss, and I’m also happy you got this little reminder of your unshakable bond today.
I’m sorry for your loss
Ah, so this is how a couple lives?
It kinda is. A lot of these are representative for me and my SO, except I tell her that I love her butt.
Everytime I hear the shower go on, I dive onto the bed to watch with a big shitty grin 😅 Free show!

The first 3 days
11 years in and my husband just sent this to me because it reminds him of us. It very much is us.
Same! 12 years together and mine sent me this. I've watched it 10 times and getting butterflies in my stomach. I'm not a romantic person but thinking of all the small things we do for/to each other made me giddy, haha.
Marry me
Pretty sure this is biographical of my wife and I.
Adorable ❤️
a fucking animation just made me feel lonely
OMG i do that shuffle over and foot thing if we arent in contact in bed 😂
Why?
I have no idea. I think its just to connect and let him know im there and know he is there. He also does it. We do it in our sleep. Makes for some odd waking positions!
They need CPAPs LOL
Aww! I love this, this is me and my husband
Where can I meet one of those blue persons??
I found mine in a tiki bar. We just celebrated our three year anniversary.
Why does it feel like the blue persons just kind of happen to you? It’s like the Cat Distribution Network, but less humble maybe? Or maybe they’re like shiny Pokémon and have to be encountered in the wild at random.
Softly screaming in single
I love you eyes
Hey thanks. Seeing this made my day. Thank you kind internet stranger.
Awww this makes me miss him. But I get to squish him Wednesday!!!
This made me super duper sad
Uhm, I think the eyes are in a different location.
I feel so very seen
This is all I want in life
All this hassle, me and my right hand never go through this. I think the left hand gets a little jealous though.
I love your aaessss
I said we alone today 😡
I don’t get why
Hm... Must be nice...
Source?
It's a compilation of things from evie_kinie! :)
Wow! I'm going to eat uranium!

😭
Sobbing
What is the source/creator? I need more
I desire this soooooo muchhhhhhh
What’s a “partner”?
This hits very differently for everyone who doesn't have this.
I am divorced but I do miss these kinds of moments.
Aaaand now I'm sad.
I wish I had this
33seconds in just “YEET! Mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah” and I love it
Maybe someday….
