Snoring can kill your sex life

SNORING is ruining the sex lives of one in four couples, a survey says.

Twenty-five per cent sleep separately to avoid the racket, while half admit it affects their relationship.

Seven in ten men confess to snoring, according to the Great British Snoring Survey.

Four out of ten women admit they have a problem.

Relationship expert Denise Knowles, from Relate, said: “People deprived of sleep suffer physically and emotionally.

“Sex is the last thing you want when you’re shattered.”

Marianne Davey of the British Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Association said: “Snoring can put a big strain on relationships. We get calls from women who are absolutely in despair.”

Snoring can be a sign of ill health, with snorers more likely to have high blood pressure. Sleep apnoea, an extreme form of snoring, is associated with higher heart disease risk.

There is always a freak in the bunch and this time it's my turn. I'm an only child and when I would wake up and hear my dad snoring it reassured me and I'd go back to sleep. To this day snoring calms me and makes me sleep better, unless it is me snoring. Then I'm just cranky.

Actually, the Catholic and Orthodox Churches kills marriages.

Not sure who said it but I think it was this guy.

I tell you what, if you are in love with the woman, and you are offering up really great sex, your sex life will not go away.

If a husband snores during sex, I think they might be doing something wrong.

You are banned.

If the wife is snoring, you need to really hurry.

Good one, good one. But "she" ain't around no more....she'll have to find someone else to abuse (and that's a different issue, BTW, than the topic of the thread...)

Why would I be banned for saying "If the wife is snoring then we know her mouth isn't being used for talking"?

I tell you what, if she's a violent vindictive irrational psycho, it won't matter to her.

“Sex is the last thing you want when you’re shattered.”

Liar.

Mrs. Exile snores like a freight train, and I'm not complaining.

Well I'm not sure why you'd wanna have sex with a violent vindictive irrational psycho, but we all have our fetishes, I suppose. : )

Don't let one bad apple spoil the whole bushel. Or basket. Or whatever that saying is.
