I haven't had a good night sleep in twelve years. My gf drives me crazy, she's up 3 times a night and sleeping next to her is like being next to...uh, I don't know what. I can't even think of the word? I'm a neat sleeper and she rolls up the blanket, and the pillows end up all over the place. In the morning it looks like a bomb exploded or a hurricane came thru. And "that side yours, this side mine" don't work, she's all over the place.
Men and woman should sleep in seperate beds. Have a mutual bed for shaging but seperate beds for sleeping. What I wouldn’t give for a good nights sleep. |

In all seriousness, it could be a sleep disorder. They are very common! I've got sleep apnea myself! Her's sounds like Restless Leg Syndrome.
Check out http://www.sleepnet.com/disorder.htm and see if her condition might fit into one of these disorders... Now that I have been treated for my apnea, my wife & I BOTH are able to sleep. ...A luxury we didn't have before... Lyndel |

Vandy, Jimmy legs? That's a new one for me.
My wife and I have been married for 10 years, and we don't sleep together. In fact, I basically have my own apartment. I live on the top floor of the house, and she and my son live downstairs from me. And we love and cherish each other just the same. Maybe because I have Jimmy legs? |

Yep, she gots the Jimmy Legs! She got 'em big time. Me, I sleep in the same position all night. I barely make a wrinkle in the blanket, but look over at her side...tornado alley!
I'm gonna look into the jimmy leg cure! |

If the patient moves limbs during sleep but there are no consequences, it is simply called periodic limb movements of sleep (PLMS). Not all patients with PLMS have PLMD (in fact, most people with PLMS do not have a disorder requiring any treatment). PLMS can cause insomnia and daytime sleepiness. The incidence of this disorder increases with age. It is estimated to occur in 5% of people age 30 to 50 and in 44% of people over the age of 65 (which means it is a normal observation in most individuals). As many as 12.2% of patients suffering from insomnia and 3.5% of patients suffering from excessive daytime sleepiness may experience PLMS. PLMS is related to restless leg syndrome (RLS) in that 80% of people with RLS also have PLMS. However, most people with PLMS do not experience RLS.[citation needed] PLMS has made its way into popular culture, being referred to as "jimmy legs" and "jimmy arms" in an episode of the television sitcom Seinfeld, and has been known to cause couples to sleep in separate beds. In both examples, one subject suffers from PLMS severely enough to disturb the sleep of the other subject.

Huh, I was thinking of "The Golden Girls" for some reason:

FWIW, I've had insomnia since I was a kid, but since the Missus and I got one of those "sleep number" beds, I actually sleep once in a while. No, Wise Guy, I didn't turn it into a water bed...I was quoting a gag from a television show in my earlier post, not making an autobiographical...oh, never mind. |

We live in a two bedroom apartment, one room for me, on for my girl, no sleep problems and I don't wake up with a bunch of dolls, panty hose, and other girlie stuff.

Justin- five words for you:
"Select Comfort Sleep Number Bed". My wife and I have an Eastern King sized sleep number bed. (I went for width- I'm not tall enough to really need a California King.) Her back now does much better, and, due to the separate sleep compartments, I don't even feel her move when she gets up to pee. It's the best bed either of us has ever owned. -Erik

I wouldn't want to sleep without my wife next to me... Although work takes me out of town at whiles and I must. For 13 years of marriage, I have had no complaints.
Magic is doing improbable things with odd items that, under normal circumstances, would be unnessecary and quite often undesirable.

My bride of 26 plus years would gut me if she knew I was typing this............
When she went through "The Change" she would go up in body temp from 98.6 to 106F in a "flash" so lots of tossing and turning, ripping the blankets off and kicking the crap outta me if I got to close! I did almost the same as Erik with a East Coast King (not sleep number) for that extra 6 inches of safe ground. The thing looks like a landing pad for a helo! Now that both kids are gone I do have an option of going to another bed but after almost 3 decades we are pretty accustom to each other! Hang tough JS, Mick |

Back on topic: during my first marriage my wife and I slept in the same bed. She was a FIRECRACKER! I don't mean that sexually, but in terms of heat. Cuddling up with her in the middle of the night was like cuddling up with a fire log. When she left me (and this following part is true) I was absolutely shattered in soul and spirit...but I noticed I could sleep better. I cuddled with my dog, who was warm and furry and nice and wasn't a FIRECRACKER. Soooooo....(long story short) when I got together with my current bride(I, too, can use romantic designations)--the woman I will be with for the rest of my life (knock on wood)--I quickly introduced her to the idea of separate beds for sleeping. Of course, separate beds for marital bliss would require gymnastics of which we are not capable, so we do use a common bed for the reassertion of our physical vows, but we SLEEP on separate floors of the house. I've been told (by her) that my snoring makes our arrangement exceptionally congenial. I've been told (by members of the Café) that my snoring (though they've never heard it) is a potential cause for worry, and that I should have it checked out (which I am planning to do). Love and horses, Jeff |

You guys with the sleep number bed sound pretty happy with it! My wife and I went with a Tempurpedic mattress the last time it was time to update mattress' and let me tell you the first night with it - BEST nights sleep I had ever had! We still love it! I'm intrigued by the sleep number thing though... Maybe next time.
