I have to wake-up earlier for work in the morning, so I go to bed first. We've developed this routine where when I go to bed Mr. Calioc comes and lays with me for about 10 minutes, and then he gets up and goes back to his computer. He usually goes to bed about 2 hours after me. We do this on the weekend too because I'm afraid that if I stay up late on the weekends it will be too difficult for me to get to bed during the week. Sometimes he will turn off the computer and go to bed when I do, but only if he's had a hard day or isn't feeling well.
Almost always we go to bed at the same time. Sometimes he wants to stay up so we compromise by watching a show in bed together on our computers then fall asleep togehter. I always get up earlier than him, like you, and it bother's him sometimes, but I couldn't fix that by staying up later than him - he'd probably out last me anyway :)
I'm a night owl so I'm usually always up at least 2 or 3 hours later than my SO. So when he's ready to go to bed I go with him and we watch tv. When he falls asleep I usually get up and read or watch tv in the living room or get online. I wish I had a more normal sleeping schedule but it's almost impossible for me to go to sleep before 3 in the morning.
We make it a point to go to bed at the same time. Sometimes I stay up later than him and it's suprisingly lonely when I go to bed and he's already asleep. Its our time to reconnect after the day, to cuddle and chat.
We almost always go to bed at the same time and make a point of it. FH has to get up way before I do but I still try to go to bed at the same time he does. It's my favorite time of the day. It's our time to talk and reconnect and etc....
We usually go to bed at the same time, although sometimes if I have a lot of work or one of us isn't tired, we don't. I hate it when that happens, it always feels like something is wrong. Plus, if we don't go to bed at the same time, the chances of other nocturnal activities occurring are significantly lessened. So going to bed at the same time is pretty important for us!
We go to bed at the same time. I will lay in bed and read or watch TV if I can't sleep the same goes for him. But he wakes up an hour or so before I do. And most of the time he lays there and cuddles with me or gets up and takes care of all our "kids"
We try to bed at the same time. We are both major believers of no TVs or computers in bedrooms, so occassionally one of us will stay up later then the other. If that does happen, the person who is staying up later always makes a point to tuck the one going to bed in.
We stay in a good routine...we have our nightly shows that we watch, almost always make dinner together, and head to bed at the same time.
I think it brings us closer, being on the same schedule. =)
We always go to bed at the same time - my rule not his. But PrettyKitty, I like that idea of tucking eachother in! Maybe that's a good compromise when I'm exhausted and he wants to watch the end of the basketball game. :)
We always go bed together. In the event one of us is not tired we still go to bed and watch tv in the bedroom. It is about having the comfront of knowing that we are next to each other.
It used to be that he'd be in bed early for one of his classes the next morning, and I'd be the one sitting up reading or playing on his laptop (but always in bed next to him). Now he's the one staying up all night doing business stuff, and I crash before him!
It's actually really cute - he takes my glasses off when I fall asleep before I intend to
We almost always go to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time, too. If I'm really tired, I'll offer that he can stay up later, but he never does (unless I have a cold and go to bed at 7 or something). Like the others, we compromise and I'll doze off on the couch if he wants to stay up late.
We have an easier time falling asleep together, and it's been really good for us both.
During the week are bed/sleep habits are similar - go to bed at the same time and get up around the same time. But on the weekends, he likes to sleep in longer than I do, but if I get out of bed he wakes up so I try to lay in bed quietly so he can sleep in longer, but sometimes it's too much and I'll try to sneak away to watch tv in the other room, but he always wakes up :)
I'm a night owl and he's an early bird. We've both tried to shift our schedules as much as possible, but he still goes to bed before me and wakes up before me.
Luckily, he sleeps like the dead, so I can work in the same room while he sleeps!
We have been trying to go to bed at the same time. It makes us feel a lot closer. He can definitley stay up later than me though- and if he gets on the computer late at night, I know there is no chance of us heading to bed together!
My FI and I were on opposite schedules for a while, and he is so sweet, he used to "put me to bed" and lie with me until I fell asleep. It felt so safe, I loved it! I used to stay in bed longer just to be with him.
We'd prolly still be doing this except I'm deployed and now he's back on the day shift. ![]()
I usually go to bed a good hour or hour and a half later than my FI. Sometimes he feels bad about it, but I rather like the time alone at night. On the other hand, I think that we could be closer if I did go to bed with him. I think that I'm going to try to do half and half:sometimes go to bed at the same time as him and other times not. The ironic part of it is that in the weekend very often I go to bed BEFORE him!
I get up early for work, and so I go to bed earlier. Mr. B is a student and has night classes, so he gets up late and goes to bed later. It's sorta weird trying to go to bed at the same time as him now...
We go to bed at different times. He has to get up almost 3 hours before I do, so he goes to bed crazy early sometimes, I just can't sleep that early ( I am night owl, as I write this at 12:33am) but on the weekend forget about it, same time sleeping and waking
My sweetie and I are on the same sleep schedule on weekdays. On weekends, he's the one to have to sleep in until 11. I like to get up at the same time everyday, otherwise I feel like life is wasting away! haha
I work in an emergency clinic at night and he works during the days. We are happy if we are in the bed at the same time ever.
We don't try to actively go to bed at the same time. It just works out that way. But it is tough to get on the same sleep schedule when he is on-call in-house at work. But I luv, luv, luv when he comes home from a night at work, while I am still sleeping, he showers me with tiny kisses... then crawls in bed. and while it may only be an hour we sleep together, it is so precious. I love my man. <sigh> (and he is working tonight, so it is something to look forward to when he comes home in the morning)
We go to bed at different times. He gets up about 3 hours earlier than I do for work. Plus, I'm an insomniac. I tried to go to bed the same time he did and just read or watch TV, but he can't sleep well with the bedside light on.
He's a night owl and I need a lot of sleep (and wake up at 5:30am) so we don't often go to bed at the same time. But he "tucks me in" so I'm happy with that. Besides, he, um, snores a bit so it's easier for me if I fall asleep first!
I have to wake up early so I try to go to bed much earlier than the Mr. does. It makes me sad sometimes, because I like going to sleep with him. But, I also don't want to be his mom and make him have a bedtime. We are so silly because...he can stay up two weekdays a week. That was our compromise. It may sound like I'm controlling but it works for us.
I wish we did. . but he usually waits until I go to bed to start getting ready for bed. If I stay up late, he'll stay up later. It's a procrastination thing. But I usually am still awake by the time he does come to bed.
We're both night owls so we go to bed at the same time. The only exception is if I have to work that night (sometimes midnight project launches) or if either one of us is sick. Once in a blue moon I'd get caughtup reading a book or something and don't want to go to bed at the same time. He'll be like 'i missss u here' so I end up going to bed hehe.

Mr Peng ALWAYS wants to go to bed before I do. Before when we didn't have a TV in our bedroom, I'd usually stay downstairs for 2-3 hours after he went to bed, but now that we have a TV, I make it a point to go to bed whenever he wants, no excuses. I've found that it's better for us and for our relationship. It felt weird to not go to bed at the same time. The only problem is now that since I require less sleep, I wake up way earlier than him, and it is kind of annoying for him (I get up, make coffee, turn on the tv downstairs, etc) whereas before, when I went to bed later than him, we'd wake up around the same time.
What about you? What are your bedhabits? What do you find works best for your relationship, especially if you both have different sleep schedules/habits?
