Should Married Couples Sleep In Seperate Rooms

Peeps, I am so sorry I couldn't respond to the comments on my last post. Abeg vex not. It has not been easy this past week juggling motherhood with wife hood(if there is any word like that). Please, I appreciate everyone that passes by my page whether you leave comment or not.

I kind of always wonder if it is a MUST for couples to actually sleep in the same room. For one, I am not sure if I can sleep in a separate room. My husband calls me a cat because if I don't feel his body next to mine at nights ehn....... story for another day.

Ok, ask me what of the times he has been out of town. How do I cope? That is the thing, I may not sleep immediately i get on the bed cos I will turn and toss and imagine he was right beside me. But, I will still sleep sha anyhow.

So I asked a friend of mine and she said no way,her husband snores like a truck on the highway. She said and I quote '' I love my husband to bits but if we keep sleeping in the same room I will definitely start hating him''. Strong words but i totally understand. And that brings me to asking this question: Why must men snore????

My husband snores lightly and when he is very tired he actually ''SNORES''. For me sleeping with the lightest noise is an issue. I am a very light sleeper, any sound no matter how minimal wakes me up so you can imagine what it is to stay awake to hear your beloved snoring and sleeping peacefully. What i do most times is to tap him lightly and once he turns over he stops snoring.

Then I remember my uncle, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. If people can win award for snoring,he will by now have plenty gold medals. There was a time he came with his wife to spend some time with us. They both slept quite early on this fateful day and then mom told me to go pick up her bag from her room. I had to pass by the visitors room, and I thought i heard my uncle strangling my aunt. I had to run to call my mum that before uncle kills aunt make we alert the neighbours.

My mama no wear wrapper commot living room to find out what was happening. We barged into the room only to find husband and wife snoring their lives away. As husband was raising the bar the wife was supporting with her sonorous umphs. We laughed so hard and believe it or not they didn't wake up!

Some people are of the opinion that sleeping apart is the beginning of ''distance'' in a relationship. But shouldn't couples have time apart? I mean some ''me'' time. I am sure there are days either partner just wants to spread out alone on the bed and just sleep.

Whatchya think peeps?

SNORING is a valid reason for sleeping in separate rooms. Trying to choke your spouse while sleepwalking is not only valide reasons, but also grounds for divorce.

simple...HELL NO..

LMAO @ the scenario with ur uncle and his wife.

I think to each his own really. I'm a light sleeper like u too. What I do is I try and fall asleep before he does, or if it gets too much for me, I turn my head to the other side. Luckily for me, we are both NOT cuddle sleepers ;)

yayi said...

LMAO at your snoring relatives. I dont think couples should have separate bedrooms but I think they should defineyly have separate CLOSETS!! I need space for my shoes.
My boo wouldnt let me sleep in a different room, though he snores like a freight train especially after a couple of beers.He drives me CRAZY!! He comes after me even in his sleep, he has to hold me close, he has to position his big head on my chest.....and he is still snoring. And every night I am trapped under some muscular limbs, miserable and trying very hard not to break his head!!

I know many couples who have been married longer than I have been alive who had separate rooms. My grandfather had a room separate from his wife but with a connecting door. Me, I can't sleep in the same room as someone who snores. I am so sorry. I don't think separate rooms causes distance because couples always find ways to work around "obstacles"

a couple should NEVER sleep in separate rooms

lol @ ur uncle n his wife...tew funny

lol @ Yayi

I just hope my future hubby wont be a snorer o!My Mum snores so bad...d last time she visited i couldn't sleep in d same room with her!!

Myne said...

If it works for the couple why not? But they should be careful sha, I agree it may create unnecessary distance.

I think in todays world its a bad idea since everyone is so busy during the day doing their own thing so at nigth its important to have that one on one time... my aunt and her husband had separate beds I thought it was weird

downtheaisle said...

I think I agree with suru, in today's world, our lives are so busy that the time u have left are those times on ur bed, when u cuddle.

Personally, I like to share the bed with hubby, but I cld do with separate rooms for our stuffs.***we both have "load"***

"Why must men snore????" Wow!!! that statement was made with an air of fact.
No, not all men snore.
Snoring, is not really an act of conscious choice.

Yeah, sleeping apart could be "...the beginning of ''distance'' in a relationship." however, couples differ one to the other. Personally, would rather not.

'Me time', 'tis not only when we sleep we can have 'me time'....

NaijaBloke said...

Like a bunch of people already said sleeping apart is a bad idea o ....

U can have a whole room for you clothes o but me and my future wife ain't sleeping apart.

Get earplugs men .....lol

bumight said...

i dont think i can sleep in a different room from my husband! if my husband snores, we'll just have to find a solution to the snoring abeg!

QMoney said...

My dear,i am moving to my husband's house in 6weeks and i have been thinking about this rooms thing,he snores but i don't mind that so much cos i grew up with a snoring dad.the issue is we both have too much load,i suggested we put all our load in a separate room and he didn't like the idea,i don't like the idea of having a separate room but how i for do?he even has a TV screwed on the wall in the room and i don't like that..i hate the noise......
i like hanging my clothes to air when i pull off and he hates seeing clothes lying around,,,he'd rather fold immediately...our differences plenty ooh.....lol

justjoxy said...

I have a question for those who sleep apart. After the 'act' does one then say to the other 'Oya, go back to your own room?'

aloted said...

whatever works for the couple...wats the guarantee that if u sleep in the same room u'll be close??

lol at your uncle and aunty..

peju said...
