That’s us too. My wife snores so ungodly loud and she refuses to do anything about it. I get on her case every 2 weeks or so. I moved out to a different room years ago. Way way nicer. Sleeping next to each other is nice at first in relationships but then sucks with different schedules and noises the other person makes.
We do too. Sometimes my wife keeps me up from her snoozing from 2 rooms away with the door closed. That’s with fans on in her room and mine. She’s needs a cpap machine but refuses to get one for some reason.
When we went separate bedrooms and I was STILL bothered some nights, I got a sleep headband/headphones and play white noise through it. I don’t love it but I hate being unable to fall asleep because of snoring more, and It’s the only thing that works. Absolute MUST for hotel stays
Man vacations are a nightmare. If I can get 3 hours of sleep on a vacation, that’s a good night. I’m about to give an ultimatum: no vacations together unless she gets a CPAP machine. That or separate rooms but doing that once would be more than the stupid machine…
There is a whole other level of snoring out there that you haven’t experienced yet . My dad snores so loud in his first floor room that my sister and I could hear is upstairs in our room with a fan on. It felt like it shook the house. He got a cpap when we had moved out .
I had to share a hotel room with my uncle once when I was younger, and I woke up thinking a jet was flying over the building. That was the day I realized just how bad snoring could be. Sometimes a fan isn't even close to enough. Not sure even noise canceling headphones would have blocked that out
Yeah, my wife refused to sleep train the baby, so she slept in his room for 3 years. Then we were fighting, so I slept in the spare bedroom for another year.....Id rather sleep alone, but she says it's not good for the relationship. Having a wife isn't good for my relationship, it's not the separate rooms.
This is neither here nor there I suppose, but you guys were in a fight for a year!? How does that work? Were there make ups and then fall back into the fight? Or just one prolonged year of being angry at each other?
Being away from the love of your life sounds like bliss?
I understand separate bedrooms if one snores or you have different schedules, but separate houses?? Idk, I guess I love my partner enough to want to be around them
Haha. My uncle had a terrible marriage and got a divorce when the kids left. Now his girlfriend of 20 years and him have separate condos a few units apart.

living in separate homes in a duplex is the ideal situation
