(STUDY FINDS) — Reveling in solitude, a third of Americans actually look forward to the time their significant other is away — and not sharing their bed! A survey of 2,000 Americans who live with their partner finds 36 percent appreciate when either they or their partner isn’t at home, as they don’t have to share a bed.
Maybe that’s because the results show that four in five respondents (82%) admit their partner’s sleeping habits consistently wake them up during the night.
Their partner snoring (52%), scrolling through their phone before bed (33%), and getting up at night to use the bathroom (33%) are the most common sleep-disruptive habits. Not only that, but a quarter of respondents also deal with their partner hogging the covers (27%), tossing and turning during the night (25%), or “starfishing” across the bed (21%).
