Separate bedrooms?

[Floopyandtired]

Is it weird to choose not to share a bed with your OH?

DS has always been a crap sleeper and the way we all got the best sleep was DS sleeping in our bed with DH, and me sleeping in the spare room. DS is slowly starting to sleep better in his cot of his own accord (he’s nearly 2) and DH has floated the idea of me moving back to sleep in our room.

The problem is I really like sleeping alone now. I’m a problem sleeper anyway and have always slept better alone, plus DH snores, sweats, fidgets, twitches, etc etc. Is it weird for an otherwise happy couple to sleep separately? We get on great, have a decent sex life, and so on. I just don’t know if it’s a bit weird and I worry about DS getting teased if he mentions it at school or something when he’s older (I’m massively overthinking, I know!)

We don't have a spare room, but when we replace our bed I am seriously considering 2 singles. He comes to bed later than me and nearly always disturbs me, I wake ridiculously early and disturb him, I like to be warm, he doesn't, etc, etc. How we've managed this long in the same bed is a mystery to be honest, we both sleep better if the other isn't actually in the bed.

After being single for 8 years, I don't think I'd ever be able to share a bed again - I enjoy the space too much . I also generate an awful amount of body heat and have been told I don't need a radiator in the room, I can just stand in the corner and heat up the room lol.

The thought of sharing a bed with another warm sweaty body is not appealing. If I'm ever in a relationship again it would have to be separate beds.
