Does your man snore?

Oh and Rob, since you are now the Women's Issues policeman, please report all posts made by men that don't belong in this forum. If not, you are just trying to derail threads to piss women off in particular.

You are on ignore now.

I don't care if you ignore me but as usual you have totally lost the plot

Don't forget to report the dudes for posting their bullshit here. Otherwise you are a hypocrite.

It seems to me like you care a great deal since you keep whinging about it and reported it.

It is very open as to what constitutes a women's issue... but the women get to decide you, not you (a man).

no t

no they don't, that would indicate they could have things be womens issues that had nothing to do with women, that is idiotic.
and I didn't report it, I asked a question to make sure I was correct
you see grown ups do that they check on themselves rather then just decide things are they way they wish they were...

So Mr. Rouge has been snoring a lot more lately. I wish we had an extra bedroom so I could get some peace and quiet.

I've met so many women who sleep in a different bedroom from their man because the snoring got to be too much.

I have yet to meet a man who has opted for his own sleeping space in order to get rest. But I've met many women who were at their wits end and ended up having to sleep in separate rooms.

Have you asked him if he doesn't mind sleeping on the couch sometimes so you can get a good nights sleep? I feel for you, I couldn't handle it.

 

[Tattooed Goddess]

Unfortunately our small couch doesn't fit him because he's 6'3". Even curled up on it he doesn't fit. Our master suite he's building has a while yet to go. He doesn't really like our comfortable mattress. He needs something hard for his lower back issues. Maybe one day he will have the hard bed he wants in the room next to me.

His alarm often goes off forever because he's so sleepy from a poor nights sleep. I'm going to encourage him to get another sleep study.

Oh damn. Do you think he wouldn't snore as much with the hard mattress? Might not be linked but I have a "sleep number mattress" and you can adjust the firmness of the bed on both sides (so you and your husband could have different firmness). I love it. Though I'm not sure why I bothered getting it cos it's only me in the bed... but maybe that'll change someday lol

We've thought about a sleep number bed. His problems are in his throat and neck. He is very thin but has a fatty throat area. He passed this onto our daughter and she snores bad also. I feel bad for her future partners. One thing about her though, she's easy to wake up. You pretty much have to bang pots and pans to get him to wake up. Even once he's woke up he can't comprehend that I'm pushing him to roll over. He snores in pretty much any position because of the throat thing. Which is why the breathe strips probably won't work.

Is it a thyroid issue then? Sorry if you've already mentioned this. With all the science out there you'd think they'd be able to fix something so seemingly simple as snoring!

 

[Mr Ed in Mass]

Maybe elevating his head might help

 

[deleted924715]

no
and it has been confimed by a moderator via PM this is not a womens issue, get over it

ME get over it?!?!?!?!

Oh, the irony.

 

[Tattooed Goddess]

We have a wedge pillow to elevate his head, doesn't help.

 

[Mr Ed in Mass]

I believe ,imho, that the only cure would be the Cpap then. It saved our problem at night......good luck

 

[AlteredEgo]

you have an inflated image of yourself
I call you out on your bullshit not on the fact that you don't like me. that really does not bother me at all. the fact is you mean nothing to me, I just don't like misandry.
looking at that post your response to TG was respectful and to me you were rude
just like where you tell a man his post is not a womens issue but respond to TG's as if it is.....
you have an attitude toward many men actually, not just me. You want to believe it's because I was hurt by you not answering me but the truth is you are not important enough to cause me to be sad by not talking to me, I don't even know you.....

Lies. I wasn't rude to you. I just wasn't friendly. I don't owe you friendship nor ass kissing. I do not have to be warm toward you. I do not like you, and never have, and have mostly regarded you quite icily, though not (to my memory) outright rudely until this thread. There are lots of people who rub me the wrong way and inspire no friendliness. Some of those people are men, but my disdain for them does not reflect apply to others. There are yet just a couple of others to whom I actually am routinely discourteous. Again, that applies just to those individuals. I know it would make you feel better if you could explain social rejection by yet another woman as bigotry, however, the truth is you're not a quality man. I reject you based on specific patterns in your own behavior, things you can control, not something inherent like your maleness. No, Dude. I have looked at you and found you utterly lacking, and if you awoke tomorrow with ovaries you would still disgust me.

The man in question seemed to be asking if his post was miscategorized. I gave him a succinct answer, and pointed him to where he might better get his question answered, and to what parts of the site might help him find the audience he sought. I guarantee you he didn't find my post offensive, nor was it meant to be. He asked for help, I gave it. End of. And the only reason you care is that I won't let you bore me in private.

I'm done with your stupidity derailing productivity. Into the ether you go. I'll not see your response.

 

[Tattooed Goddess]

So how many women in this thread is he harassing? I can count several, plus he's doing doing this on my profile wall and contacting people privately.

I got banned for calling what sounded like a male pretending to be a female a male. And yet creepy guys like this are allowed to be here?

Is this site better because of his presence?

*standing ovation*

You know what, you're right. He adds nothing, he has no interest in, or understanding of, women and the issues they face - why should I avoid threads in WI because of the likes of him when I can put them on ignore and not have to read it?

*poof* he's gone!

Now, how do we entice Brisler back?

 

[AlteredEgo]

I knew a man whose snoring was a major part of the decline of their marriage. After his father in-law died, his wife's depression ended their sex life. They became like CEO and CFO of a corporation whose business was to raise their young. His snoring became louder over a few years. She was a housewife by her own choice even though the youngers were in high school and she was an award-winning professional who was welcome to return to her old firm or start a new one. Despite this, and showing no interest in sex, she would awaken him violently, and insist that he, who made time to take a walk with her and her friends every morning before putting in what could sometimes be a 16 hour, deadline driven workday, and coming home to cook (because she couldn't) and clean (because she wouldn't) should be the one to go to the couch or the guest bed. Eventually, tiring of being kicked and punched awake he stopped coming to the marital bed at all. That's when he stopped making any sexual overtures. Eventually, he asked for a divorce. She talked him out of it, wanting counseling. She told the counselor he'd stopped being affectionate and showed no sexual interest. The counselor wanted him to ask his wife for snuggles and kisses, and sexual contact. He refused. She had rejected all requests for sex for several years, and many attempts at securing hugs and kisses. In fact, they were down to a peck on the cheek when he went to work. They were friendly enough, and still had nice chats and inside jokes. But all romance was gone. He always said he feels like he could have turned it around but the rejection of being beaten awake and evicted from their bed, permanently, damaged something he couldn't repair.

I didn't read through the thread. But I do believe it is a women's issue. I don't snore. But my wife does, and she's a woman. It's been getting worse over the past couple years. It's now at the point that it wakes me up a couple times a week. Sometimes if I can bump her hard enough it'll get her to shift positions.

She's in the care of an (female) allergist, who said one of the problems is a deviated septum.

I had septoplasty (getting my deviated septum fixed) and another procedure called turbinates in August last year as I couldn't breathe out of my nose. I don't know how bad or how often I snored as I don't have a partner but I slept terrible because of my breathing issues.

It's honestly the best thing I've ever done and it's improved my life and quality of sleep so much. I'd highly recommend that your wife see an ENT and consider getting the septoplasy procedure done.
