Do you have separate bedrooms and did it change your relationship?

Better or worse?

We don't have DC and DP doesn't snore excessively but our lodgers are leaving and I'm getting so excited about having a little bit of space of my own. Is it weird though if you don't have an actual reason to sleep apart?

Do whatever you want.

Plenty of people have separate beds and/or rooms and it works just fine.

Do it!

I moved rooms in late 2020 in the vain hope that I wouldn't catch DH's covid. I never moved back 😃

So @LangClegsInSpace if it's not a rude question... On a non sex night do you cuddle in bed and then one of you leaves? How does it work 😄

Yes... it was undoubtedly the reason that we divorced. 18 years later, we still speak every day he is 3000 miles away is

We haven't since child was born around 4 years. Honestly feel over time it has weakened parts of our relationship but then if we attempt to sleep in the same bed we both can't stand it 🤣 got used to lots of space in bed and no snoring etc!

I sometimes do wish we did still sleep in the same bed though. Non sex night we say goodnight and head off to separate rooms, sex nights it's like a one night stand - he gets up and goes into his bed after! Works though, we've been together 20odd years

Better. We like each other more when we have adequate sleep.

I like it cool with space and quiet, he is hot, clingy and snores.

Sometimes I get restless legs and he's not too into getting kicked.

This with bells on. Sleeping with DP is like lying next to a giant friendly bear. Also I get sciatica so sometimes need to do weird shimmies to get comfortable
