sleeping together in same bed (spouse)

I was wondering and honestly answer please,  who sleeps without their spouse?  I mean its been almost a year now and my bf just won't sleep in our bed. He rather sleep on the couch.  He claims because we dont have a tv in our room. I had my son last May and he started this right after I had the baby.  Sex life is ok I guess (as im pregnant again) but i feel like crap well more so hurt because he chooses the uncomfortable couch over sharing a Queen bed with me :-/   I known his cousin thinks its normal as apparently he sleeps in his smoke room then in bed with his gf.  But in all honesty,  how many of you sleep in separate rooms from your spouse? !?

Hi, I'm 6 months pregnant... Haven't sleep in the same bed before I knew I was pregnant. At first I look it like sad. But now I like it, actually I love it... My own space. No kicking, not taking my blanket away... Lol... Yes, at first I feel so bad. But then I have to enjoy because I got tired of feel like crap when he don't want to sleep with me....

My husband sleeps on the couch. & I'm very happy because his snoring is UNBEARABLE. I love him to death but I can hear his snoring *** all the upstairs in our bedroom.

Lol this is going to sound so weird but i am the one that does the couch run. I love my man to bits and enjoy cuddles but when it comes time for sleep i hate being touched i prefer the couch or the spare bed.  He always comes and cheeks up on me his so sweet . As soon as i wake up i run back to "our" bed and jump in with him. Im just a weirdo that likes my own space when I sleep.  Doesnt mean i love my man any less

My parents don't sleep in the same bed, rarely if they do. My father's snoring is just too loud for my mom. Growing up was awful, his door was closed, our doors were closed but we'd hear the snoring and it was disruptive

For us, my husbands snoring is loud, he is possessive and I get overheated because he likes to make me sleep on his chest/shoulder until he falls asleep.

I sometimes just leave him on the couch or wherever he falls asleep so I'm free from the snoring and being overheated

My husband of ten years always sleep in the same bed. It's how we connect and snuggle after a long day. That would **** me off if he slept in the couch.

My boyfriend tends to fall asleep in the living room on the couch often, almost every night. He always makes it to bed though. some times 1 am sometimes 4 am but he never sleeps there the whole night. Even then I get bothered that he falls asleep out there because I fall asleep a lot faster when he's next to me. have you mentioned anything to him? about how it makes you feel.

Get Mr. TV lover some wireless TV earphones and you can sleep in the same bed and he can still watch TV.  lol

We have separate bedrooms. We keep each other awake otherwise. And that would not result in a happy relationship.. We sleep in the same room if we go away together for a short period.

My husband will go sleep on the couch he says he is tired of arguing about the tv, I hate it being on I can't sleep, he says he will come back to bed, but always falls asleep, I told him it hurts my feelings I don't sleep good without him next to me, so I'll get up and go to the kitchen and be loud to wake him to get him to come to bed ha

My husband sleeps in the living room in a separate bed. He is more comfortable that way bc he is conscious about bumping me or hitting me in his sleep and that keeps him from sleeping well. I dont mind anymore.

It might be a family habit, but I can see why it might feel to you like rejection.

Do you happen to be someone who rolls and stretches and extends diagonally and scratches with the toenails?  Maybe he is just to polite to suggest that you are a restless sleeper and hard to sleep with.
