Is your partner getting in the way of you getting a good night sleep? It seems that more and more couples are choosing to sleep separately - or in my case, semi separately. If you are finding yourself distracted by television, annoying touching or incessant text messages than maybe there is a solution to be found!

My partner and I used to use the pillow line down the center of the bed method until one day we decided that it would be perfect to have two single beds and place them in the corner of the room - in an "L" Shape, and therefore would still have contact because our heads would be together in the vertex of the "L".

Some couple are taking the innovative idea of continuing to share the same room, but remain in separate beds to ensure a good nights sleep. Could this be the solution to all of your sleeping woes? I think we may have finally found the answer.

I feel that this is the perfect medium - we are sleeping together, separately. As well, if you ever feel like sleeping together you can for a few moments and than have your separate space back. Statistics show that nearly one in four couples sleep separate. I am part of this growing trend, this was exciting!

Couples are realizing that sleep is an important part of being healthy and maintaining a healthy sleeping environment that enables you a well balanced rest is vital to your well being.

By the year 2015 new home building companies anticipate that more than sixty percent of homes will be entailed with two master suites due to this growing trend.

More couples are opting to sleep in separate beds, rather than separate rooms. This is a growing trend that will only become more popular as time goes on. This is much more common of an act than we realize.

Two people in one bed is the way that we envision marriage and there is a taboo about sleeping together. There are many people who worry about what it says about the marriage and their sexual relationship. Therefore, there is little research because there are few couples that are willing to admit that they are sleeping apart. There no longer has to be a stigma, I came out of the bedroom - will you?
