Mac and I have settled into something of routine after about a month here in Colorado. As has been the case for our entire relationship, he’s an early-to-bed-early-to-rise sort of guy while I’m a bit more of a night owl.
When you have to be at PT between 5 and 6 am, going to bed at 9 pm makes total sense. But me? I can totally stay awake until 2 or 3 in the morning and be back up by 9 am. Or occasionally sleep until noon. Some couples might enjoy being on the same schedule, yet this works for us. Mac prefers to work out in the morning while I’m still sleeping, and I blog and aimlessly surf Pinterest after he goes to bed. We each get to do our own things and still sleep enough to be pleasant human beings.
Do you and your significant other sleep together or at different hours?

We are the exact same way! Rob goes to bed early.. and I can stay up super late.
Jen says
Yup same in our house, Kyle is in bed at 9:30 and I stay up late.
Amber says
We used to go to bed at separate times when my husband worked the night shift. But now we both go to bed at 11. He SHOULD go to bed sooner as he wakes up at 4 AM, but he says he wants to spend time with me. Which is sweet, but I feel bad, because I imagine he must be tired at 4 AM.

We are just like you! John is asleep by like 8 and up by 6 most days. He does PT on his own so even if he doesn’t go, he’s still up pretty early. And just like you, I do blog stuff on surf Pinterest while he’s fast asleep.
Amanda says
I much enjoy my me time when Mike and the girls are sleeping. He’s always out super early.
Stephanie Whitener says
We are opposite of you. I am the early to bed and rise person, and Tom could sleep the day away if I let him.
