There’s nothing better than going to sleep and falling asleep next to your dear half. Or not? There is a new trend in the bedrooms, sleeping separately and say goodbye to the double bed. Why and is it really worth it? Look.
When you live with your partner, life is just different. In most cases, each of the couple has a different job, otherwise they have to endure it for a long time, and this may mean that your life together means a few hours together before bed and sleeping in a marital bed itself. But marital beds, although they have certain advantages, especially from an emotional point of view, can have their disadvantages. What are they?
The risks of a double bed
Even if you love your partner, you can hate it directly at night. And there are different reasons. The first is that each of you probably has different sleep hygiene. While one of you wants to read with a lit lamp at bedtime, the other wants to sleep, and your light prevents it from it.
You can also go to sleep earlier than your dear half, but its late arrival in bed can disturb you from the realm of sleep. There is probably no need to talk about snoring, if you have a loving and devoted person side by side, whose snoring evokes 100 woodcutters cutting wood in the forest, you would prefer to suffocate a pillow after sleeping hours of sleep.
Sometimes it may also happen that your partner misunderstood the function of a large duvet for two and begins to claim it all for itself. Winter will awaken, and the peaceful harmony of two sleeping souls will then turn into a duvet fight.
It is also common that one of the partners in bed expands too much, and in the morning you wake up not only sleepy, but also with a monocle or bruise, as your love of life simply unknowingly kicked you in the wild dream. All of this, and much more, can lead to the so -called divorce.
Sleep distribution
Sleep distribution is simply sleeping in separate beds. It makes sense, because each of you will sleep in your calm territory, where no one stems from a duvet, does not wake it with snoring directly into the ear, no one will come to any harm, and most importantly, the likelihood that you will really sleep well. Sleep quality has a huge impact on your life, because when you are well rested, you have a better mood and more energy that you can share with your beloved person after waking up.
Of course, sleep distribution also has disadvantages. These include, for example, the feeling of loneliness and inserting that a partner does not want to be side by side with you for the next 8 hours. Even if you sleep, you can feel inadvertently and alone.
Unfortunately, another disadvantage may be that you will increase conflicts and lose connection with your partner, especially in cases where you spend the whole day at work and have time for your partner in the late evening. This also increases the risk of splitting. Therefore, sleeping in separate beds is at a discretion and in each household it will be absolutely individual, whether you accept your partner’s sleep habits or if you can manage sleep distribution.
