I guess we were just fortunate.
Yours is something, I can only dream about.
Congratulations.

And the damn dog was noisy too

Re: Sleeping in separate rooms
Nicole and Tpin have lived very interesting nocturnal lives.
DaveA, my parents are in thei 80s and have slept to
gether without exception in a queen size bed for decades. I didn't know until I was grown that sometimes people didn't sleep in the same bed.
I have no idea why, but I think it's quite romantic.

Re: Sleeping in separate rooms
On a serious note, the whole sleeping in separate rooms thing....When I'm suffering from lack of sleep I get really grumpy so being kept awake was having a long term affect on us. I was moaning at him all the time. Moving into the spare room solved that particular problem.
And as with all long term relationships it's what works that matters, it's not a one size fits all situation, each to their own.
