Marriages are tough to survive. It required lots of compromises from both the end. For the people, it looks like a romantic fairy tale. It isn’t a one for sure. A crying baby, Trash, Cooking after a tiring day, sharing a bed, hair on the pillow. And this is just a tiny list.
A Twitter user @TheCatWhisprer recently in a tweet shared the difference between dating and marriage. However, what really caught the attention of people was when he mentioned about the woes of sharing a bed after marriage.
DATING: can’t wait to see you again
MARRIAGE: part of your knee was on my side of the bed again last night

He pointed out his struggle. Like one of them found the other’s hair on their pillow. Absolutely, not acceptable!
“I found one of your hairs on my pillow. Have you been using my pillow? Don’t ever, ever do that again.”

After his tweet, there was no full stop. The couple soon after started to share their experiences. From not getting space on the bed to snoring. It is a pretty long list. Read it yourself.
I have insomnia and he talks in his sleep. So when he’s talking to me I text him what he says! 😂😂 so he wakes up in the morning and is like “wtf was I dreaming about?”😂

The snoring, what about the snoring. My wife snores so loudly we have slept in the same bed for over two years!!! When I met her she didn’t make a sound at night, these days the walls shake and the windows rattle!!!

Honeymoon phase: cuddle under the covers together
Now: we each have our own king size blanket and we use the excess to form a barrier wall in the middle of the bed— Annabelle Damian (@DamianAnnabelle) August 22, 2020
Married 36 years.
“Night” as we each go to our own rooms.

Dating: falling asleep in each other’s arms
Marriage: “If you rest your hand on me as you’re falling asleep, I’ll punch you in the face”— Eliot Cohen (@The_Elcat) August 21, 2020
DATING: Honey, let’s hold each other as we fall asleep!
MARRIED: (Reaching over to put my arm around my wife’s waist) “Stop touching me! Why are you always touching me!”

You did something in my dream that made me mad
I’m not speaking to you today— Mike Silver (@tutorindie) August 22, 2020
My side of the bed is a 10 inch wide precarious ledge. After 16 years of marriage, I can now sleep on the side of cliff like mountain climbers do.

Wife, wakes me up- “Can turn the other way or lay on your face. You’re breathing hot air on me.”
Me- Love, you too.

I have Restless Leg Syndrome. My husband says it’s like sleeping with the cast of Riverdance. I once kicked him so hard in the middle of the night he leapt out of bed and started crying!

Dating: Sleeping face-to-face
Marriage: You were breathing on me again

My husband was on my side of the bed, but he insisted he wasn’t. I broke out the goddamn tape measure….
He was on my side. 😂

This is one of the funniest things I’ve read for a while, but that may be due to extreme tiredness because I decamped to the sofa at 3.30am due to a mixture of some of the above.

DATING: I miss you.
MARRIED: Don’t you have some place you need to go?— Lisa Ferrel – My Fingers Fly (@myfingersfly) August 21, 2020
Are you kidding? We’ve reached the point in our marriage where my wife builds a miniature version of Trump’s border wall in the middle of the bed with pillows every night!
