IDK why but it drives me nuts when H does this:

Falls asleep on the couch instead of just getting up and going to bed.  Just go to bed FFS.  I'll wake him up and he'll say, "I'm not sleeping.  I'm just thinking."   I can see you!  You are clearly sleeping!

    I fall asleep on the couch all the time. In fact, I do some of my best sleeping on that damn couch!
    I like privacy. A lot.
  • "i'm just thinking" is fuckingfunnnnnnnnnnyyyyyy!!!!!!

    I'm using that next time!

  • My husband always does this and it bugs me too.  Esp when he snores and I"m trying to watch tv.
  • That used to bother me, too. And, I agree---for no good reason! Two years ago I made a new "rule" with myself. I wake him once and then I just leave him be. I'm much happier now and have much more room to stretch out in the bed! :)
  • My husband does the samething! It drives me nuts! You are not alone!

  • I hate when DH does this and Im still watching tv and not ready for bed I feel like I cant get up or I will wake him

  • Argh, yes, FI does this too.  I'll come out from the bedroom and he's sleeping on the couch, tv and lights on and everything. He'll refuse to come to bed because he's 'still awake' and won't let me turn the tv off, so it keeps ME up.  grrrr
    Always be yourself. Unless you suck.
  • Ladies...I think it's just a husband thing. My husband does this too. I don't mind too much, until his snoring is so loud I cant hear the TV, or when he falls asleep in some way that pins me down on the couch and I feel trapped. I've given up on telling him to just go to bed. He always stays on the couch. I don't try to wake him up more than once anymore though. I will just shut off all the lights, go to bed and leave him there. He eventually makes it to bed.

  • H's very existence is annoying me right now. Well, it's because he's chewing on Sour Patch kids and making this god awful noise.

    GAAAHHH STOP.IT!

    Okay listen. 

    I just asked DH.

    He does NOT get annoyed when I fall asleep on the couch. And it happens a lot. Therefore, you guys are overreacting.

  • MH will do this while I'M still awake trying to watch TV or whatever.  And he will snore.  I get irate and beat him into the bedroom.  
    Shot first, questions later.
  • mine does this ALL the time. If he is still up when I go to bed, he will be crashed on the couch all night.  I don't get it.

    H does this all the time.  All the effing time.  I hate it.
  • I'm just resting my eyes!
  • Ugh, and WHY do they deny that they are sleeping in the first place?  And really, you're that lazy and tired that you can't walk upstairs to bed, yet you want me to believe you're not sleeping and it's just my (very awake) imagination?  It drives me crazy, and I can't even explain why.

    I fall asleep on H when we're watching tv/movies on the regular. He wakes me up and helps me to bed every time.
  • Hahaha that's cute. Just throw a blankie on him. Don't harsh on his buzz man!

  • I fall asleep on the couch all the time.

    But I have often been told that I am the guy in my relationships.

  • My H falls asleep on the couch or the floor all the time. (he lays on the floor to help his back sometimes) I used to try to wake him up to get him to come to bed, but he started to just get mad that I woke him up. Now we have the agreement that if he falls asleep, I leave him where he is. Works for both of us, he gets to stay asleep, and I get the bed to myself. 

    For those of you whose husband's falls asleep and leave the light and TVs on... I have learned to wait until he is out, and then quickly sneak in and turn them all off. He may roll over a bit, but he usually goes right back to sleep. 

  • Couch naps are the BEST naps.  I don't know why my fiance thinks like you...
    Seriously, people. If your faith in humanity is destroyed because your parents told you there was a Santa Claus and as it turns out there is no Santa Claus, you are an ignorant, hypersensitive cry baby with absolutely zero perspective. - UnderwaterRhymes
