Reason For Snoring
My husband snores And it is so bad, I’ve been tempted to take a large pan and bang it in his face. I’ve been sleeping in my child's room for over a month and I know that this will only create another problem. My husband doesn't seem to acknowledge his snoring problem, but It really is affecting my overall sense of happiness and I don't know what to do. Should I leave him. From what I can tell… I’m very sensitive to annoying sounds whistling drives me crazy. If you’re seriously considering leaving because of snoring, I think it means you want to leave, snoring no snoring it doesn't matter. Seriously, I’ve an employee, whistles all day long, I dream of firing him but I haven't and I won’t he's a good employee.
Ok. I know my husband would be stubborn enough not listen if I told him he’d a snoring problem. I'd try to notice if the snoring is less if he sleeps in a different position on his side or something. If that works then everything will be better. Also try to go to sleep before him. so that you're deep in sleep and maybe you won't wake up if you're far into sleep.
Or he may be one of those people that only snores when they're dead tired. See if he can take a early evening nap and if that makes the snoring a little less.
It is a bad reason. I know it's driving you up the wall, but you really need to try to either deal with it or get medical help for him. There are plenty of remedies for snoring.
Get a tape recorder and record his snoring. When he goes to sleep the next night play it back to him.
There are many remedies today-check them out!
Wow!! Don't do that pan thing, totally inappropriate. There is this nose band aid sold at the drug store that you put on the outer nose to keep it open to stop snoring. Another thing is to observe when he is snoring, I wondered is he lying on his back if so try to get him to turn over on his stomach. Don't do it mean but a gentle nudge when he is made aware of the snoring, he will understand and turn over which will solve the problem. Now, if he's loud like a freight train and doesn't hear you the nose band aid may work. Best to you.
If he doesn't think his snoring is bad, tape it and play it back for him. My husband does the same thing. I get up every morning and put the curtains back on the windows where he's sucked them off during the night, just kidding. But it's close to being true. Unless, there's another reason you might want to divorce him, I think, you may get laughed out of court with that excuse. Try those sticky nose strips that stick to the outside of the nose to open it up. They work for my husband when I can stick one on after he's asleep. !!
You can't be serious. Quit being selfish & figure out a way to fix his snoring problem.
Well I've never heard of the court allowing snoring as grounds for divorce. Want him to acknowledge he has the problem? Tape him while he sleeps. Snoring could be a sign of medical problems. Could be his sinuses need checking, could be a type of sleep apnea, snoring sometimes accompanies overweightness. If he is a drinker his snoring will be heavier. He could have lung/bronchial problems that cause him to snore. Won't know if it is any of these things unless he sees a doctor. You need to sit him down and say something like “I'm concerned about your snoring because it could be a sign of a hidden medical problem and I want you to be healthy. Please make an appointment with the doctor to disucss this problem”. In the meantime there are “breath right” strips as well as anti snoring spray which work fairly well.
LOL. . . take a large pan and bang his face. C'mon sweetie. . . if you were going to do that I'm sure you have plenty of other reasons than snoring.
I do it. Used to do it terribly when I was younger. Causes? Some are overweight, exhaustions, heavy drinking, smoking or some physical problem that a eye, ear, nose and throat man can fix.
In the meantime. . . is it a PIA to sleep in the other room. yeah. But. . . . any real complaints about him or the marriage other than this?
This is easily fixable. Unlike some of the problems other simpletons display here.
sounds like an excuse to leave him, but not the real problem. videotape or audiotape him snoring–he'll get the picture. send him to a sleep specialist.
Ear plugs? a stop snoring aid? Send him to the doctor. Snoring sometimes indicates a health problem.
I believe what you are going through is called “transference”. There is a problem (s) in your marriage and you are afraid or unwilling to confront the issues so you have transferred all the anger and hurt to the snoring because it is the most obvious problem.
Moving to separate bedrooms hasn't resolved the
issue, and it should have if snoring was the problem.
I don't think you are really an aggressive and abusive person. I think you are frustrated.
This is one of the times when counseling will help identify what is the real issue and then you can work for a resolution. If your spouse doesn't want to go with you, go by yourself so you can learn how to deal with problems, and live the happy life you once had.
My husband has THE loudedst snore. . . ever. But he also has sleep apnea so he uses a loud breathing machine as well. At first, I did not get much sleep at all. Now, I have my blessed ear plugs. I absolutely LOVE my ear plugs. I use them even when he's not home. When I put them in, all I can hear is my own breathing. It is so soothing to me that I fall right to sleep every night. I used to lay awake for a long time, but now, thanks to my ear plugs, I get lots of restful sleep. I got a whole package for around $5 at Wal-Mart. Good luck. . and don't divorce over snoring. . . that's silly.
That would be a bad reason for leaving. My dad snores really loud and my mom gets through I don't know how but she loves him and over looks it.
No it's not a good reason. Buy him some snore strips.
Don't divorce because of snoring.
Have him go to a physician and see if it can be corrected.
If not, then you can sleep in another room. . . . but it doesn't mean that you can't still be intimate. But try the physician first and go about this logically.
