I suppose this is an idol query again.
I've recently got together with a new partner after a long time of being single. Everything's fine and we get on great but my main problem is trying to sleep. I just can't get used to this having someone else in the bed with me thing and so i end up spending most of the night tossing and turning and generally not getting too much sleep. He's quite a light sleeper so i also tend to wake him up as well.
Did anyone else start off a relationship like this and if you did, did you manage to adjust and get used to it? I'm not too worried about myself but he's got quite a manic job and i know he needs to be getting a good solid nights sleep instead of being woken up every hour.

For me, I find it hard to sleep when I'm alone in the bed now. It feels cold and empty.
i generally sleep better if im not on my own but i do get kept awake by loud breathing and snoring
