Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hi Ladies, just my 2 cents here. Chaz moved into his own room 2 years ago. Between my concentrator noise, my tubing, tossing and turning, etc., he wasn't getting any sleep. I'm a book worm and read until all hours of the night and he hated the night light. I like to watch old movies late too and he, strangely enough, wanted to sleep. I got tired of hearing " Turn off that %#@* light " ! and made the suggestion that he would sleep better in the guest room. He loves it! I miss the companionship but not the discord over the differing sleep habits. The other upside is that I can now decorate my room any way I choose, and I choose PINK! LOL! All 5 of the dogs pile up in bed with me, which he hated too, so all in all this is working out nicely for both of us, although he just loves to tell people that I chose the dogs over him......the brat. And our house is so tiny that if I yell out in the night he can still hear me.... Just how it is around here.....

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Babs, To me it sounds like you have the best of both worlds. A room of your own AND romance down the hall!

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 , LOL! Yes, I admit, my life is not at all a bad one. And I really DO like having my own room. I slept with 4 sisters until I was 12, and then finally got my own room. Married at 18, so I only got to have my own space for 6 short years. I wouldn't say it's the ideal situation for everyone, just for us...me and the dogs I mean.... Hugs!

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Everyone finds what works for them and at different times and different points in life it changes. We sometimes just fail to honestly figure out what is best for us because we're committed to what we think should be best. Given the importance of sleep then finding the way that provides the best and most sleep for both is generally the best. It's not like walking next door isn't possible. In fact, I can imagine a certain unique romance when sleeping apart and the one who wakes first sneaks next door and just waits quietly, the other then waking to the pleasant surprise of company. Unfortunately, the only thing down my hall is the oxygen reservoir and while I do value it, I don't find it romantic. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Sher, > > > > > > > > > > So sorry to hear that Rich has moved to the other bedroom.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I have a friend who lives with her partner, but they have seperate bedrooms out of choice. There's nothing like machines or anything like that keeping one or the other awake. Anyway, it means that they have their own space, they get 'invited' into the other ones space where they are still on their best behaviour . They may stay the night in the other ones room, they may not, it depends where the mood takes them. Also they find that if one has to get up early and the other doesn't they don't disturb the other. They were having problems within their relationship and this is what saved them. Things like she likes to read, while he likes to play on the pc or watch the telly, she likes a neat tidy pretty room, while his room is a students pad! (Unless he's expecting her to ahem, visit! ) These little things were niggling away at the relationship, and taking those little stresses away helped them to see the big picture. I know it's an aside, but separate rooms is a good thing for somepeople (and there are some nights when I'm inclined to agree ) Although I appreciate it's not for everyone.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Babs, I too come from a big family and had a big family ( 6 kids). I shared a room all my life, first with sisters, then married for 25 years, and then with my daughter when I divorced and moved to a smaller house. The first time I ever had my own room was two years ago when I turned 50! It was also the first time I slept in a house all alone. Weird feeling at first and I still miss all the commotion of a big family, but I am getting use to the quiet. Sarcoid/PF 3/2006 California Re: Spouses , LOL! Yes, I admit, my life is not at all a bad one. And I really DO like having my own room. I slept with 4 sisters until I was 12, and then finally got my own room. Married at 18, so I only got to have my own space for 6 short years. I wouldn't say it's the ideal situation for everyone, just for us...me and the dogs I mean.... Hugs!
