I have heard of couples who broke up because the guy snored so loud the woman could never get a good nights sleep. Or do people just sleep in separate rooms for the rest of their lives?
How has snoring affected your relationship? Have you thought of splitting up because of your partner’s snoring?

    My last boyfriend snored like crazy! In 47 years I’ve never had a boyfriend that snored so loud! I wore earplugs (it helped a little), but honestly if I loved him enough I would have had to address it because I got no sleep. If he is a young man, he needs to seek help in this area, otherwise, no one will sleep with him! You should not accept having to sleep in another room. It’s one thing when you are older and have children with the man, but if you’re just starting out….asses your feelings about this man and act accordingly. Make him seek help with a ears/nose/throat doctor or give up on it.

    If he snores that loud he really should go to the doctor to see if there are any major problems. During the night when I can’t sleep because the snoring and loud breathing are so bad- then I sometime want to split. I never would. You could sleep in seperate rooms on days you have to work and then sleep together on the other days if it really is that hard to get to sleep.

    Well some nights I wanted to actually, physically hurt him. Most nights I would try to get to bed before him and if he woke me up snoring I would kick him and make him roll over. Now he has a night shift job and does not get home till 3:00 am. and doesn’t come to bed till 5 or 6. Works perfectly. Although sometimes I really , really miss him beside me.

    My husband snores so loudly that it sounds like a freight train coming through our BR. I knew about it though before we got wed and I knew I would just have to accept it if we got married. Most nights I just tell him to roll over on his stomach until I go to sleep. Once I am asleep even a freight train coming through our BR can’t wake me. If you just can’t stand it I recommend heavy duty earplugs.

    Snoring can strain a relationship. If you can’t get a good nights sleep it can make you grumpy and unhappy. Doing the separate room things is one solution, checking for sleep apnea, doing the breathe right nose strips…… If a couple is ok with sleeping in separate rooms than they should. Everyone will get the rest they need and no yelling at each other and causing tension in the relationship.

    No they get ear plugs and suck it up. Or at least they should if they love each other enough. Other than that, iuno.

    he is snoring right now…that is why I am up and on this forum…lol…no really if you are tired enough you too will fall asleep…yes it can be annoying but you don’t know about thosee things until you get married…..well for thos living together or sleeping together before marriage you find out…but why would you leave someone over their snoring…he just got louder…lol….love doesn’t say if you snore may I leave you…..make sure you are good and tired before retiring to bed.

    Well if someone is snoring the first thing i would do is have them have a sleep study done, there may be issues medically that need to be dealt with…Now i have never heard a marriage ending because of snoring, you get use to it after a while…or you could kick them to the coach LOL. But first i would see what the problem is with a medical professional and all will sleep well….

    My dad snored, and my mom said that if she got to sleep before he did, she could sleep. I found that was true with my boyfriend, who snores like a jet engine. But, we don’t live together, so I don’t know how it would affect us if it was every night.

  13. HOPE2BAM says:

    I CANT HEAR THE T.V THAT’S MY ONLY PROBLEM WITH HIM SNORING. L.O.L

  14. Red Rose says:

    My husband snores. Sometimes I just rather sleep on the sofa than have to hear him. I wouldn’t leave him because of the snoring though. There are some night worse than others. I don’t remember him always being this way. I think it’s only been these last few years we’ve been together.

  15. ladytaur says:

    My dog snores louder than any human being possibly could. We manage to sleep through that too. You acclimate.

    my boyfriend has sleep apnea he has a machine that helps him not to snore. sounds do not bother me, as long as he is on his side, when he does snore it happens when he is on his back i just turn him over onto his side or he could die if i didn’t do it then i wouldn’t have him the next day. i love him more than life would just do anything to make sure he is still alive the next morning. this last ice storm we were without power for 10 days i stayed awake at night to make sure he didn’t die. then he would be okay i would take a nap while he cut wood for us to stay warm. we have a partnership.
