Reply to: How do I stop snoring?

[scooterscot]

Ok folks, not to put too fine a point on this but I snore!

Like a swampy-beastie.

I need help.

Suggestions please before girly stoves my heed in with a rolling pin!

Use a shot gun - very effective against those snoring types

Honesty is the best policy.

Agreed.

She only says that if I ask. I've taken a leaf out of her book, and don't even bother asking. We jut go about the day and don't mention it.

The snoring thing in our household is almost always a result of too much alcohol ,so it doesn't happen too frequently, relatively speaking

Apparently I snored so loudly last night, my wife heard me from the other room*.

I think I better read this thread from the beginning

In the early days, when I asked why wifey slept in another room, she would come up with some excuse so as to not potentially hurt my feelings; something like she was too hot/fidgety and wanted to let me sleep in peace.

Now she just says: because you were snoring like a drunken pig, darling.

It's not girly, really. She's been very patient.

I'm just not sure how long my ribs are going to hold out...

[Churchill]

Dump her and go for one that sleeps soundly and doesn't mind you snoring?

There's an ad on tv for those strips you put over your nose. Never used them and so don't know if they work.

She's very good and forgives my snoring. But only after she's punched the bejeezus out of my ribs!

I usually lock the screen and go and get a cup of coffee.

Use 'em both reasonably regularly...

Done that on holiday - no big deal if you ask me but makes him feel bad.

Whenever one of us snores, the other just goes sleep in the spare bedroom. We have been married for 12 years though, and we don't take it personally.

They help slightly, but are not really all that effective. And they are a bit pricey too for what they are.
