We came to bed at 23.20

At 23.23 we finished our last cuddle and I snuck onto MN on my phone

At 23.28 he was breathing deeply

He is now snoring like a banshee

AIBU to divorce DH because he can fall asleep so infuriatingly quickly?!

he'd just do it with someone else!

OnlyBaBaBiss · 24/06/2018 23:34

Well you’re not going to fall asleep if you’re on here are you Grin

northernlites · 24/06/2018 23:35

Get off MN then.

CantankerousCamel · 24/06/2018 23:39

only

I know, I know, still the quiet, the dark, rhe MN Grin

northern he is unshakable, we had enormous thunderstorm a few weeks ago and ended up with DS1 (7) DS2 (5) DD (10 months) AND dog in bed with us.

DH stayed firmly asleep whilst the house literally rocked and everyone boiled me in love!

I get the frustration.

Frequently I go to bed first, struggle to fall asleep, then DH waltzes in and is snoring in less than a minute. I then find it even harder to get to sleep due to the a) snoring, b) irritation that he can fall asleep so quickly!

Infuriating!

MothertotheLordsofmisrule · 24/06/2018 23:58

How do they do it?

Head on pillow, snorting within 2 mins. I’m laying there wondering if Big Bertha will be kind to me in prison when I go down for his (justified) murder.

And don’t get me started on being woken up by the sun deciding join me in my room at ‘Gawdknowswhattime’

YANBU my husband could sleep thru the end of the world... he could fall asleep during a high speed motorway crash... honest to god it drives me nuts because I am the worst at both falling asleep and staying asleep and I am so so jealous
He doesnt even appreciate what a gift it is because he complains about it like 'oh I wanted to stay up and watch the film!' and im all like 'Oh sorry dear was it difficult having that ten hours of unbroken sleep you got? Life must be so hard for you!'

GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!

AjasLipstick · 25/06/2018 00:03

I am like your DH. I just turn off my mind. Can you try?

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 25/06/2018 00:04

DH snores like a bloody chainsaw.

Not a Court in the Land would convict me I tell ya!

Flyingpompom · 25/06/2018 00:49

I'd be more put out by how quick your 'cuddle' was Wink

EndOfEternity · 25/06/2018 01:20

I used to be just like your DH, then pregnancy hormones wrecked it 😫
It’s 1.20am an I’m still up on MN 😫

ScarlettSahara · 25/06/2018 01:35

Exactly the same problem here -awful snoring yet falls asleep as head touches pillow. He tells me he cracked not being able to fall asleep by thinking of list of things & now it just happens naturally.
Doesn’t work for me because I get irritated making the list. Spend the night trying to push DH onto his side to stop the snoring Waaah!
Would ask him to sleep in spare room but can’t at the moment.

DiegoMadonna · 25/06/2018 01:36

Hahaha, my OH hates this about me too. Eight minutes would be a long time for me, I'm usually asleep within 1 or 2 at most.

TheLittleThingsLikeVodka · 25/06/2018 01:37

AjasLipstick don’t get me started on turning off my mind, that’s what dp always says. How am I supposed to do that!

Monty27 · 25/06/2018 01:45

He's not on MN that's the worst insomnia anyone can have.
Go on op log off and snore in unison Grin

CantankerousCamel · 25/06/2018 02:03

Flying

He does NOT LIKE CUDDLES Grin but I force myself on him and 3 mins at night in bed is really my limit...

We also spend a lot of time holding hands/touching feet etc so he’s not against all physical contact just most of it

End

I’ve been trying to get him pregnant to no avail. I’ll keep trying Wink

Staying asleep, now that’s a whole other reason for his quick and silent demise

Do you have an Emmy award in your midst to clunk over his head award him with? Grin
