I read it on somewhere that sometimes separating rooms for sleeping is a good idea and wanted to give it a try. I absolutely liked it. It was very comfortable and I fell asleep easily. Is this normal?
Firstly forget the word " Normal " , normal does not matter , what matters is what works for you , now the question is really based around your sex life , so the important question is not about sleep , its about sexual activity.
Has it increased? decreased? or is the same? If sexual activity has not been enhanced then sleeping ( not in the same bed ) is often the beginning of the end , if things have increased , then its a wonderful asset. What you think will not matter now , will matter a great deal in the future if you wish to remain together.
Separate bedrooms always runs a risk.
Good Luck , hope it really is working.

I’ve known a few couples who sleep in separate rooms. Only one still seemed very much in love. To be fair, i only met the fella half of that couple.
The rest seemed to be in denial of their marriage being over. Again to be fair, none of them were fighting anymore and nobody was bringing home “new friends”. They were just roommates and MAYBE friends. Maybe the familiarity was just more comfortable than the thought of dating again, or worse, never finding someone special again.
I probably wouldn’t be down with it. I couldn’t get over the idea that something is wrong. Especially if there’s nothing to fix, it would drive me bananas.
Sleeping with someone for cuddles in really fun.
what’s even more fun is sleeping alone and getting to fart in peace some night without having to worry about smells. I don’t see anything wrong with opting to sleep alone sometimes. Beds are meant to offer comfort and ultimate sleep during the night.
If one or both of you snores and/or tosses and turns all night and keeps waking each other up, then yes, separate room is the solution - and remember to close the door so you don't still hear the snoring.

Absolutely, enjoying a little space like sleeping in separate rooms can actually be a big thumbs up for a relationship! It's all about personal space and getting that beauty sleep we all crave, isn't it? If it made you feel more comfortable and helped you catch those much-needed Z's, then you're doing something right. It's not about the distance, but about how you both feel happy and fulfilled. Each relationship has its unique rhythm, and if separate bedrooms strike the right chord for you, then you're grooving to a wonderful tune. Keep communicating and finding what works best for both of you. Love is about understanding and adapting, not just sharing a bed. Keep on loving and sleeping soundly!

Yes because beds are for getting peaceful sleep not trying to sleep with someone next to you because society says so.
Yes, this is perfectly fine. We should normalize couples having separate bedrooms.
I very much value my space. I value being in bed alone. I love my husband but he’s the worst sleeper lol. He sleeps diagonally across the bed hogging the whole thing. he steals the covers and the pillows. He always falls asleep in hoodies and sweatpants, sometimes JEANS, so he’s always hot and sweaty. He feels the need to basically lay on top of me. Several times a night I have to push him off of me and beg him to move the fuck over.
Sometimes I sleep on the couch cause I just can’t deal with it anymore.Yeah. If you and your partner's sleeping patterns and bedtime routines are different, it's better to have a bedroom of your own. I mean, I think having your own room is good in general, not just for sleeping but privacy, me time, etc.
I heard somewhere that sleeping together is actually fairly modern and probably due to small home circumstances.
You need to make time for one another and keep the intimacy of the relationship going somehow though.
Yeah there are many couples that sleep separately from each other especially when one snores loudly. There's nothing wrong with it.
It is good if you want to damage the relationship over time and lose the strong bond to each other.
Yeah one of my good friends does this with his wife.. they have always slept in different rooms, he snores like crazy and she tosses and turns all night so they sleep apart and get a good night's sleep.
Privacy is nice. I mean sure, time together can be fun, but ideally you need to have the choice available to be alone if you want to. Not having that choice can really start to chafe sooner or later.
If you liked it, who cares what other people think is “normal”? Just do you.
I think it's fine, it's not like you guys always have to do that but as someone who rolls around like crazy in their sleep I definitely could understand that
My girlfriend and I live apart at the moment and I enjoy it.
Her not so much so be sure you’re both on the same page.Unless you’re married, you shouldn’t be sleeping together anyways. I mean, I never followed the rules because nobody ever told me so I slept with every girl I had everywhere.
Normal for you. If sleep is your goal, good for you to feel comfortable enough to do this. But if it were me, I would be looking for some morning action, so don't be mad when he shows up.
If it works for you and your partner you shouldn't be worried if it's normal or not.
I've heard other people say that. I can't imagine it's particularly common though.
I know a lot of older couples who do that. Not having someone next to you wheezing, snoring and farting makes it easier to sleep.

Why would you want to be separated on vacation with your boyfriend that doesn’t make sense to me? Why even bother going together?
And Gladys and Abner Kravitz only had separate beds. Amateurs.
If one partner is a heavy snorer and the other a light sleeper it is recommended.
It should be. I only want to spend time with females procreation. Every second spent with a female otherwise is a second wasted.
