to be pissed off with DH's comment 'it's only snoring...'

[RachelHRD]

DH has been fiddling with biting and chewing his finger on and off for the last 20 minutes and got narked when I asked him to stop as it was annoying and moaned that I complain about everything he does so I pointed out that I think I'm pretty tolerant considering my sleep is disrupted every night by his snoring and dolphin impersonations sleep apnea and I put up with it and would he be so tolerant if it were the other way around???

His reply 'FGS it's only snoring...' bloody charming that he shows such concern for me getting a good nights sleep. I have suggested numerous times that he goes to the Dr about it but he has never bothered.....

Flipping men

I am going to go against the grain, as I'm not overweight and I still happen to snore, which my DW puts up with. However, snoring is not something you can control in some cases so it is a little bit unreasonable to get angry about it, as it's not like many other annoying habits which you can at least attempt to supress.

On the other hand, my dad snored horrifically, and while losing weight did help, it was actually discovered that he had pollips in his nose which greatly contributed and upon having them removed, he has snored much less. So he is being unreasonable to not go to the doctor.

And let me appologise on behalf of us terrible snorey men

More buckets if sympathy here op.

We have separate rooms 3 floors from each other!

DH is still in denial about this, and constantly moaning about not sharing a bed, yet won't cut down on the cigarettes and lose weight.

I have video'd him.

I have recorded the sound.

My ds once came in and told him off for it.

Worse still - I ended up in hospital with cluster migraines a few years ago...why? Because his snoring was so loud I was grinding my teeth in my sleep due to the stress of the noise, to the point of setting off a migraine. My front tooth has now cracked and I had to spend £100 on a silicone mouthguard.

You are right - the snoring is bad, however the stopping breathing, silence then snorting, uuggghh, at that time of night/morning honestly, sometimes I used to lie there crying, I honestly felt compelled to punch him!

But through all of this I am sure secretly he things I am the unreasonable one.

DP snores. He has broken his nose several times in the past and was a very heavy drinker. He's also a big bloke. Stopping drinking has helped enormously and with the ceasation of the drinking has come weight loss.

You have my sympathies. Next door used to bang on the wall when he really got going with his snoring!

Sofa bed is/was my saviour!

Hopefully how do you know you can't do anything about it?
