Was going to namechange then thought fuckit. I have my own beðroom as does himself. I like privacy, I'm a light sleeper, we keep different hours and it just makes sense. It makes no difference to intimacy etc and a huge difference to the amount of sleep/his life expectancy. We both have en suites so have no need to disturb each other at all if needs be.
To be honest I find the idea of having to share a room a bit odd and outdated. If it works for you then great but so many people are miserable and not getting any sleep and view it as a failure of the relationship in some way to sleep separately.
Anyway, I have had two conversations about this recently (it came up as I'm pregnant, will be breastfeeeding) and was looked at pityingly, as if relationship is on death row and I'm in denial. I honestly don't feel like I'm missing out in anything nor do I feel it means a relationship is in trouble. To one friend it was "unthinkable". It also came up that she thought it was a 'bad example' for children to see their parents sleep separately?? I would never share a room again tbh bad example or no.
Anybody else out there have their own rooms or Is it unreasonable?
