Sleeping with your husband Vs. Sleeping Alone.

I am still somewhat of a newlywed, 2.5 years. Do any of you other wives out there miss having the bed to yourselves? Maybe this is a weird question and I seem selfish. I think its the fact that he wakes up at 6am and I have to hear him snooze like 4 times before he wakes up. Also he likes to sleep diagonally and it doesn't leave the most room for me. I like that hes there and miss him when hes gone... Is it just me anyone out there have one of those nights they wish they had the bed all to themselves??

Oh yes, I miss that too especially when I get disturbed from sleep every night when my hubby snores too loud. lol! I miss the times when I was still single and I sleep with some books beside me, my journal and lots of pillows, yet still lots of room for myself.

LOL, I'd also miss having the bed to myself on such nights when sharing it does not leave much room for me. I have been married 5 years now and I miss my husband so much whenever he does not sleep with me, especially now that he is on night shift. 5 days a week he goes to work at night leaving me to sleep alone in bed. When he returns from work in the the morning, it will be my turn to get up and prepare to go to work. If he is not too sleepy yet, we are able to enjoy breakfast together before he goes to bed. I always look forward to weekends because that's when we sleep together.

Hi angela... We've been married for almost 2.5 years now. Sometimes my husband is assigned for out-of-town duties, and I two times in a year have to go back to my home town alone. At these moments, we each sleep alone. My hubby sometimes snore when he's tired and kind of accidentally punching me in his sleep (maybe he has bad dreams lol), he doesn't do it intentionally for he never does that when he's awake. So when he's gone out of town, or me in my parent's home, when I sleep alone, I feel somewhat relieved, you know, not for having the bed alone, but for not being troubled in my sleep. But most of the time, I'd say I miss him when he's not sleeping with me. The bed seems to be empty without him on it. I think no matter what his habits are, he's still my hubby and I'll never regret that.

My fiance and I live together with his parents. We enjoy sleeping in the same bed together, and will often time snuggle. I do not have a problem with the way I sleep, nor he sleeps. He is the one that wakes up later then I do and it doesn't bother me so much. Although he does sometimes take a bit to be woken up, I'm learning to be patient as I know that he doesn't always go to sleep at the same time I do, and will often times lie awake!

yes, i do once in a while too. although the few times that i go to bed alone i miss having him there. we have a king-sized bed, and there is not usually a problem, but he does snore sometimes, which drives me nuts!

I never bothered with my husband sleeping habits. I really miss to be able to sleep together with my husband. This was several months I slept alone. I wish I could sleep with my husband. when the time comes, I will feel happy. but I do not know whether all this will happen.
