What is a sleep divorce?
Hey beauties,
I’m currently working on an article about ‘sleep divorce’, or how sleeping in a different bed to your partner can be beneficial for your relationship.
If this situation applies to you, and you would be open to discussing it, please comment on this post and I’ll be in touch.

Philippa these annoying spammers/scammers are hoping to snag some poor unsuspecting person when they are vulnerable and scam them out of their money. There are many types of scams out there and in the short or long run the victim loses their money. Some scams are short and simple, some are lengthy and elaborate, working on the victims to siphon their money. The ones on here are a type of romance scam, to get back your lover, cast a spell etc. They may ask for a small donation or when you call their number you incur a cost. They are appearing all over social media too , I`ve seen the idiots on Facebook with the same crap they are posting here. They also try the investing/money making angle as well. Email scams are stiil around and so are the phone calls.

I often sneak out of bed during the night to sleep in the spare room. I am a light sleeper and hubby’s snoring can be loud, plus he also has restless leg syndrome and sometimes twitches so badly I just can’t sleep. He prefers me to stay in our bed because he finds it hard to sleep without me by his side, but some nights it’s just too much so I wait until he is sound asleep and disappear into a more peaceful surrounding, lol. I’m not ready to resort to separate rooms, but it is nice knowing I have somewhere else to sleep if need be.

Indie I honestly doubt your husbands snoring could possibly be louder than mine! It’s a wonder we don’t get charged with disturbing the peace! All I can say is thank goodness my handful of bedtime medication makes me sleepy. But sometimes he will snore so loudly that no amount of poking and prodding will shut him up, so I get up and come down to the lounge room and end up falling asleep in the recliner. He’s bad. And I mean REALLY bad. Even the cats are offended. They give him THE LOOK!

Oh dear, Rose, no my hubby isn`t that loud, lol. Actually, most nights I could probably deal with the snoring, it`s the full body twitches he has when he is asleep that I really struggle with. Sometimes he`s that bad that he`ll actually give me a jump scare. No wonder he wakes up exhausted after 8 or more hours sleep.

Oh, you`re so right, Lindy. My hubby can be talking to me one moment, the next he`s snoring. Drives me nuts because I sometimes struggle with insomnia and would love to fall asleep easily. In 20 years I could count on one hand how many times I have fallen asleep before him., lol

Haha! My hubby seems to be able to fall asleep anywhere! He will often fall asleep while watching TV. I’ll take my iPad and go to bed and watch something.
Something that is absolutely AWESOME to block out snoring, and come to think of it, just about every other noise that you dislike (football, cricket, x box games, car racing etc etc etc)……noise cancelling headphones. Believe me beauties, you all NEED some of these! I’ve got the Bose in ear ones. They weren’t cheap, but if something happened to them I’d go out and replace them immediately. The sound quality is excellent, and it’s amazing just how much unwanted they do block out. Hubby has got the full on over ear ones. They are great too, but I personally don’t like the feeling of them completely covering my ears. He loves them.

Hi Jess!
Honestly, from what I can see, it is inevitable as people age.
My parents have not slept in the same bedroom for about 15 years or so (Mum is 60, Dad is 65) As Dad got older his snoring became unbearable Mum simply couldn’t stand it hahaha. And of course when she hit menopause she was in all sorts of strife with night sweats and temperature control problems.My husband and I share a bed. But one thing that happened almost immediately was that we didn’t share a quilt! We both love to cocoon ourselves and there was no way we would be able to share a quilt. So we had a ‘quilt divorce’
Most people thought it weird and raised an eyebrow in a way that seemed to question how much we loved one another, but that is ridiculous! We both sleep better. Whether you share a bed, a bedroom or even a quilt is no reflection on the depth of love two people have for one another. Don’t be afraid to make the move just because you are concerned about what others think. You two know your relationship and what is best for it.

hehehe
Do it 🙂
We both have different types of quilts to suit our own needs.
And it definitely does not mean that you love one another less, in fact, think about it this way: one less trivial thing to have any tension over in a relationship! There are HEAPS more important things than disagreeing on a quilt 🙂TREAT YOURSELF TO YOUR DREAM QUILT FIFI!! hehehe

You might be interested to know that 2 quilts on the same mattress is actually the norm in Germany. I heard about it recently and though it was genius
