    Sleeping together is nice, sometimes sleeping alone is better. I’m increasingly a subscriber to John Hodgeman’s opinion that everyone, who can, should try to set up a “guest” sleeping spot for either spouse to retreat to. A recliner can be great, because it’s often when someone had a cold and needs to sleep elevated anyway.

    My SO and I sleep alone because I move too much in my sleep. My bff and their SO does the same for similar reasons. Sleeping separately doesn’t mean you don’t love each other, it’s a practicality.

      Yeah. I felt silly that it took me so long to figure out that my partner was not worried about it. They do love some cuddles, but I’ve found plenty of ways to make that happen.
