I told him that it is because he snores that I end up sleeping on the sofa (I haven't really complained about having to do this before).He got pissed off with me, basically saying that I'm odd for sleeping on the sofa and that his previous girlfriends never did that. I said that he must have got worse with his snoring as there is no way anyone could sleep with him when he makes that noise!In the end he told me to shut up and not go on about it! He is the one that drives me out of bed, I suffer as a result (hate sleeping on the sofa) and somehow I still get the blame for not sleeping with him ?!?He has said before that there is nothing any doctor can do and he won't do anything about it. He drinks too much (every night) but not so he is drunk and weighs more than he should. I believe he is being pretty selfish and very unfair. What do you think, what should I do??

Set up a tape recorder record the snores, then next time he's watching tv, bung it on and see how he likes the annoying sound. Be prepared with information regarding snoring (like even one drink can relax your muscles enough to make you snore and any cures possible), drop them on his lap and go to bed early, wrapping yourself tightly in the duvet and sleeping in the centre of the bed so he has to sleep on the sofa for a change. He might then just realise what a real issue it is!

yes he is being pretty selfish. does he know he snores? because some men don't realise. my partner snores when he has been drinking a lot so you could see if he is willing to cut down a little. that will help. i snore all the time and sometimes wake up my partner. there are things that doctors can do but generally they will recommend a change of diet/lifestyle. i have found a great remedy that seems to be working. it's a spray called "snorestop" from Kleeneze. it costs £8.99 which i know is a lot as it's only a very small one but you basically just spray it directly into the throat 6 times before going to bed. there are a lot of other similar products on the market but, so far, that's the cheapest. but, like i say, it does work.
