Sharing a bed

[punisherthunder]

When we first got married, we had a queen sized bed and I couldn’t get used to sharing it with my wife. After a couple years, we bought an inexpensive king size bed and this has solved the issue. I recommend a king size bed.

I get how you’re feeling–sometimes things in my marriage are going along just fine, but then I hear about how it is in other people’s marriages and wonder if mine is “right.” The thing to do is focus on your personal marriage and not allow the dynamics of other marriages to influence yours. If you have a happy marriage as it is, then stay that way–it’s working! Other couples may look at how you do things and wonder if their dynamics are okay, and they shouldn’t do that, either.

I think people misread my post. There is a world of difference between having trouble sleeping and not being able to sleep at all. Especially if it is a marriage where the husband is away a lot on business and it is part of one’s regular life. At some point one needs to adjust to life’s circumstances

You don’t know if those circumstances apply to the person you were calling “sad” and “WAY too attached”. Both harsh judgements. The OP is away a lot for work. That doesn’t mean his colleague is. It may be that she never has cause to be separated from her husband.
