Your partner snores badly, will you choose to sleep elsewhere?

Took years but the comfort of both my wife & me to get a good night sleep the decision to sleep in separate rooms has benefitted us both. Affection kissing & a firm hug before going to sleep & brushing our teeth upon rising in the morning for that good morning kiss continues. The only change is we both are well rested.
My husband snores but so do I sometimes so we sleep in separate beds. The snoring is a one of the reasons we sleep in separate beds. The other reason is that we have 2 dogs and 2 doggy beds which take up space. There is not enough room for us all to be comfortably in bed together . With separate beds we ALL get a comfortable sleep and nobody feels left out.

I don’t have a partner, but before my dog died, she slept on the bed with me and she snored very loud.
Some night, I had to wake her up because her snoring was too loud. Someone told me that it was a sign
she was dreaming. I asked my friend ā€œEvery night?ā€
 
I've lived alone for decades, so do not have that issue. However, as someone occasionally wilderness backpacking or camping within groups for decades, have learned I cannot get a decent nights sleep around anyone that snores even lightly. In groups, most every enthusiast in this era has their own solo tents instead of tent sharing that was common decades ago. Fortunately, in the backcountry that is usually just a matter of siting one's tent at some distance.

I never snore and also am so still, I could safely sleep on the edge of cliffs without restraints. Thus, my peripheral nervous system via the hypothalamus, is greatly detached from my central nervous system that may also have something to do with dreaming 100% of the time I am asleep. One of my 5 brothers makes ghastly sounds snoring and after people wake him up, quickly falls asleep and begins snoring again before others can start sleeping. Although I prefer to sometimes sleep with women closely like an octopus, any snoring is a deal breaker, haha.

My wife and me both snore badly. As we moved into another house in another country we established seperate bedrooms as soon as possible.

As we told this our new neighbors (seniors too) , the woman asked why and quoted a Hungarian proverb: "Even an old goat is still licking salt".
