Why do many couples sleep separately after 50?

Preserving the harmony of the couple
Contrary to popular belief, sleeping in separate beds doesn't mean growing apart emotionally. Quite the opposite! Quality sleep allows you to be more relaxed and better enjoy the time you spend together during the day. It can even strengthen respect for personal space and avoid minor tensions related to fatigue.

But then… do we have to sleep separately?
Not necessarily! Experts agree: it all depends on the situation and the couple's preferences. If both partners sleep well together and find comfort in it, there's no need to change. Physical contact, cuddling, and sharing a bed can have positive effects on mood and well-being.
