so i’m sure some of us have some annoying sleep habits like kicking, drooling, snoring, talking, rolling, etc etc etc
so i’m wondering how spouses adjust to their partners habits? what can you put up with, what sends you to the room next door
i’m very particular about who i share a bed with anyhow, and i imagine sleeping next to someone you don’t want to freak out or gross out is very different then sharing a bed with your sister
and since i don’t have the personal experience :halo: i’m curious to know how you married folk deal with it
no issues with begum really but we had 2 refugees in our bed since may 2006, they would go sleep in their cribs here and there but always wind up in our bed and as a result we would just have no room.
I mea thw twins were like 2 feet tall but they had to sleep all stretched out diagonally and perpendicular.
finally, we have been able to move them to their beds.
how did i cope with it? ahahahah oh man, i had a twin mattress on the floor where i slept, or I would go to the guest room.
later i moved them to the twin mattress, and finally u kow what did the trick
well i got a friend
my house mate
sleeps next to me (in his own bed:p)
every other day he gets up and get me up as well and start talking to me very fast about (i dont even know what) in his dream.
Then i shook him up, he realizes he is out of his bed, go back to his bed and sleeps.
next morning he doesn’t remember a thing.
I have a cousin who some times get out of the bed open the door and gets out of the house while sleeping in the middle of the night.
I shared room with a friend while in college and he had some crazy sleep habbits that I still laugh at. The most interesting ones are the following:
I found him lifting the living roon couch high. Upon asking, he said he was atrying to find a dead elephant that he claimed was hiding under the sofa.
He was once holding the wall next to my bed with both his hands in the middle of the night. He said the wall is about to fall and he was trying to save my life by holding it so it doesn't fall on me.
He once woke me up trying to save me from a falling fan that wasn't actually falling. He woke me up to tell me that the fan was about to fall and that I should get away from it.
He was half sleep half awake in all incidents and he never remembered a thing in the morning.
Forget sleeping in the same bed, i get annoyed if there is someone sleeping in the same room.
My teddy lies on the floor, even he's not allowed in the bed wtih me.
I like my bed to myself, if the bed is unmade, i'll make it and then get into it.
Mum says when I was young, i'd iron my sheets every day to get the wrinkles out.
I also like a scented candle burning that lulls me to sleep, although lately ive found its quite dangerous specially after I woke up one night and tried to blow it out and splattered the wax all over my face. :(
I hate fans. I hate windows open and I hate going to bed without a shower.
These are not habits , they are all disorders and doctors and specialist have cure and treatments for all of them. That is the right way to deal with them. Otherwise you will end up sleeping in a separate room and miss the cuddling of your spouse which is very beautiful thing if you are married.

wow ... thts scary. May be next time u can try burning 'agar-bati' :)
mirch, disorders? i know snoring can sometimes be a sign of something worse especially if it gets bad, but i think for the most part these aren’t disorders just things people do
