#SleepDivorce

It's not the idealized, romantic norm but there's nothing "wrong" about a couple (married or not) sleeping in separate rooms.

In the media, it's called "sleep divorce."

Here are a couple of articles discussing the pros/cons of doing it.

IMO, there's no reason that you should lose sleep because of your husband's sleep apnea, which is NOT good for your health & well being.

FWIW, my GF & I have agreed to sleep in separate rooms because she's fidgety & has difficulty going to and staying asleep, which in turn bothers me. Neither of us thinks this negatively affects our relationship.

So, if you have a separate room where you (or he) can sleep & think it could work for you, I'd suggest discussing the matter with him to see if that's something that can be agreed to and arranged.
