I snore pretty loudly, have since I was a kid. doctors told me I have “overdeveloped adenoids” and pretty much always will. it doesn’t bother me, but for my partner’s sake, I’ve tried a few things.

nasal strips didn’t really do anything. the mouth guards are incredibly uncomfortable and I’ve heard they can loosen teeth, so I finally broke down and tried mouth tape. it works pretty well. it improves my sleep a little and my wife’s quite a bit. the name brand stuff is expensive, but it’s basically just KT tape.

I keep plenty of that on hand for sports injuries and now I just cut a piece into little strips and it does the job. although, according to my wife, I still manage to honkshoo mimimimi a bit out the sides of my mouth.

Every time she says she didn’t sleep well, I apologise for snoring just in case.

Every time I’m awake in the night and she’s snoring, I just try and ignore it.

By poking me so I lay slightly differently so I don’t snore.

It doesn’t bother me. I can sleep in any conditions.

I just lost weight and the snoring went away l… so yeh

A nudge usually does the trick. Sometimes a gentle push is needed.

And when I shared a bedroom with unsignificant others (army), whoever snored got army boots thrown at them. Not recommended for significant others.

Snore louder to assert my dominance.

But for real, you do get used to it. I’ve found I don’t snore as loudly when side sleeping vs on my back. I need quiet to get to sleep but not to stay asleep, while my partner will tolerate some noise. So I usually try to fall asleep first and things work out.

If I don’t, I usually have a tough night. ☺️

If you’re sleeping with a partner who snores, get them to get a sleep study done. If they have sleep apnea, the snoring is the sound of them dying slowly.

Since my nose surgery i am snoring quietly. But when ever it annoys my partner they say they just kick me a bit and i stop

My sibling sleeps in a separate room from their partner, not only because they snore but also because they thrash around a lot.

Can’t hear them snoring if I’m asleep too.

My own room. From reading the comments a lot of people just seem to suffer through sleepless nights or try to dictate their partner’s health/behaviour. Look, you can love each other without sleeping in the same bed, or even living in the same house.

Edit: you asked for input from those who DO share a bed, sorry. I suffered too for many years, and my health deteriorated. Now even next to a non-snoring partner I’ll get zero sleep. Which is why I advocate for considering separate rooms.

I got used to it. It used to keep me up, but now I hardly even notice it.
