Not just one or two but most people feel that sleeping on the same bed with your partner increases love between them and also keeps the relationship healthy. But, a couple living in New York, America does not agree with this at all. Rather, they have planned their life by deciding to sleep separately. Casey Taylor and her husband Andy have been sleeping on separate beds since the beginning of their marriage.
People came to know about their life when they shared the news of buying a queen size bunk bed on TikTok and Instagram. However, the couple has also given logic regarding sleeping separately. Apart from this, a study has also been done on this sleeping arrangement. After knowing the things of these two in detail, you will be able to form your opinion about this. You will be able to understand whether it is right or not.
2 cats and a couple
After getting a queen size bunk bed, the couple living with two cats decided to sleep on separate beds by dividing one cat each. Who has told in an interview that it is not that we do not have the desire to come closer to each other but when it comes to actual sleep, we consider it like a healthy exercise. Living separately works best for us. So that when we wake up refreshed, we prepare for the start of a good day.
When you feel like being together…
Casey Taylor says that if in the future they think of sharing a big thing, then they will always keep a good second option according to the sleeping schedule. By the way, let us tell you that a research by Psychology Today shows that 25 to 40% of married couples prefer to sleep separately on a regular basis due to reasons like snoring. However, due to this, a decrease in emotional and physical attachment has also been seen.
Some call him crazy and some consider him wise
When Casey shared the matter of sleeping separately on social media, he also got to see different reactions. Where some people thanked him for making this arrangement normal. On the other hand, their own friends and family members are thinking that they are crazy. Regarding this, Casey says that this has become such a big discussion because a lot has already been discussed on this. But it is suppressed due to the fear of taking a decision.
What does the study say? Should couples sleep together or separately?
You might be thinking that this might happen occasionally. While it is not so, a research in America found that 30% of married couples in the state of Pennsylvania sleep in different rooms every day. At the same time, many researches conducted to understand relationship behavior have also revealed that sleeping in different rooms can prove to be dangerous for the relationship of husband-wife or lovers.
Disadvantages of sleeping separately
Partners sleeping separately may be beneficial for sleep, but it is dangerous for the relationship. This is not what we say, but the report of Cleveland Clinic’s Health Essentials also says this. According to the study, many times couples start sleeping separately due to reasons like snoring of the partner, habit of sleeping with the bulb on, AC temperature, different sleep patterns or fights. But after a while this habit becomes a compulsion, and despite wanting to, one is unable to share the bed. As a result, sleeping separately starts spoiling the relationship.
