Going to bed
I have an inability to go to bed at night without my husband. I don't know why I can't do it. I have always liked to go to bed at the same time, and if he is up watching a game or working, I usually just stay up too until we can go to sleep at the same time. I have no problem going to sleep when he is on a trip or we're not in the same place, but when I know that he is on the premises and not in the bedroom I just can't relax and go to sleep. On the other hand, if J is done with the day and tired, he can hop in bed and fall asleep almost immediately and I usually just try and keep up. Is it just me, or does anyone else have this problem???

I totally understand how you feel Jordan. I can't sleep in the bed if Ryan's not there. We always go to bed at the same-even if that means I'm asleep on the couch for 3 hours.
The one thing I'm bad about is that I wake up and can't go back to sleep if Ryan has to get up before me. It's not very fun on my days off when I wake up at 6:30. He can stay sleeping long after I leave the house...
I have the exact same problem... and Christian does not have the same problem like Jacob :) I think it's just that if Christian is still awake I can always find things I need to get done, and I really do have a lot more energy at night. And I have a hard time going to bed if he's not home from work that day. I just need to know if he got home safe. I seriously can't fall asleep if Christian's still up for whatever reason as well. Maybe it's that social part of me that feels like I'll miss out on something... who knows. But you're not alone, girl :)
I think it's a good sign of companionship and a good relationship. I have the same sense that you do.
I do! I'm always bugging Brody to come to bed whenever I am ready. I ask him when he will be coming about 10 times before I actually get in bed and I think he might get annoyed, so I just try to go to sleep. but I still don't like it. I just thought I was weird for doing this, but I guess it's more common than I thought.
I am right there with you. Ryan and I try as much as we can to go to bed together. I think it's important to have couple prayers and go through the routine. I love talking while unmaking the bed (especially since I'm as bad as my mom with all the pillows) and talking just before we go to sleep. I wonder if my sisters will comment, but they are the complete opposites of me. I guess everyone has their own routine.
I totally understand! Nate, though, used to be able to go to bed early. But since I'm a night owl, I've sort of gotten him to be that way too. And now he stays up later than I want to.
Thanks ladies...it is good to know I am not alone!!!
Todd and I NEVER go to bed at the same time. A: He is working 24-48 hour shifts. B: When he is off he likes to unwind later than I do, so I'll go to bed and read, and C: When he's going to work the next morning he goes to bed early and I like to stay up late and enjoy my solitude. We still pray together in the bedroom and read scrips (downstairs) but I'm not feeling like there's any love lost. He's also NOT a cuddler!
