Bullshit! I'm feeling cynical tonight.Yes get to know someone first. Fall in love with their mind and heart and everything else will fall into place on its own.:smile:
How does that work exactly?With my husband now we both have our own blankets when we sleep.
Despite nasal surgery and faddish anti-snore treatments my wife snores loudly. Like a chainsaw. She's also a restless sleeper, tosses and turns, sighs frequently, gets up to use the restroom several times a night, etc. Has she tried having her uvula removed? I've heard that works for some people. I was diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea a few years ago & sleeping with a CPAP has been my saving grace.
Exposure to all that was ruining my sleep and, thus, my health. Yup, that will happen. People don't realize just how important a good nights sleep is for them. As a result we haven't regularly slept in the same room together in 5 years and, yah, it does hurt the relationship. It makes it very difficult for us to travel together since we either have to purchase separate hotel rooms, or, I just don't get much sleep for the duration of the trip.
This is the largest hurdle my relationship suffers from and its a bad one. I'm sorry that sucks. :frown1: My cousin and her husband have slept in differnt rooms since about 6 months after they got married as well because he snores like a freight train. He does shift work and when he's on nights you can tell cause she gets real bitchy. :redface:
She has put on weight during that time. Its the one thing that she hasn't tried to "fix" to stop the snoring. And there's no way I can gently suggest she try dropping some pounds. In my experience women react violently to even the gentlest suggestion they try losing weight. You are wise beyond your years SpeedoGuy! I was hoping one of her doctors would suggest it. You need to speak to her doctors. They may have already told her to lose weight but she ignored them. Also there is a remote possibility that with her specific condition weight loss won't make a difference. :redface:
