Can your spouse or partner be too close for comfort at bedtime? While the term sleep divorce is relatively new, the practice had begun even before it was coined. At least 12% of couples in America have filed for sleep divorce, and 30% discussed sleep divorce, Good Housekeeping noted. Further, as much as 40% of couples sleep on different beds. Ultimately, the reason is to get their uninterrupted sleep back.
Why Couples Sleep Together?
Co-sleeping, communal sleeping, or simply sleeping together were mainly for warmth and safety in the past. But resting in the presence of a person you trust can also deepen closeness. Think Uninterrupted skin-to-skin time with your partner, which helps couples feel connected.
