Back when DH and I were living apart, we discovered very quickly that not being under the same roof gives us awful insomnia. We were both up till 2 or 3 am a lot wondering if we should call each other... but wouldn't call because we figured the other one is asleep :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168604 Wed, 06 May 2015 08:34:49 +0000 Peasinapod 2168604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a pretty big worry wart. So I'll try to go to sleep but will become jolted awake if I wake up and he's not home yet. Sometimes less stressful to just stay awake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168595 Wed, 06 May 2015 08:24:59 +0000 rachiecakes 2168595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! DH has always worked nights (sometimes overnights) and I work during the week days, if I stayed up waiting for him every night I'd be a zombie at work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168571 Wed, 06 May 2015 08:07:52 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2168571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heck no! I need my sleep and I'm not going to be sleep deprived just cause he's going to be out late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168552 Wed, 06 May 2015 07:56:36 +0000 snowjewelz 2168552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before LO, most of the time... Tho when I was pregnant I probably passed out too early a few times haha. After LO, if I'm not tired I will but otherwise I'd pass out w/ DD! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168551 Wed, 06 May 2015 07:55:52 +0000 mamimami 2168551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hell no! I'm sure it will be different with my kids, though. A mom of teenagers told me she stays up and smells all her kids as they come in the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168545 Wed, 06 May 2015 07:49:17 +0000 Alivoo01 2168545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! I feel better knowing DH is home safe vs falling asleep and missing a phone call/text if something happens. I've tried sleeping but no can do. </p> <p>@mrbee: My dad stayed up waiting for me growing up. Didn't matter I was 16 or 18, or what time I came home. I could always expect to find him sitting in the living room with the TV on waiting up for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168514 Wed, 06 May 2015 07:18:08 +0000 littlebug 2168514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, but not out of worry. I stay up late because I'm binge-watching all the chick flicks he won't watch with me. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168511 Wed, 06 May 2015 07:16:23 +0000 looch 2168511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha, I'll be sitting right next to you, Mr. Bee. </p> <p>I can't sleep if everyone isn't at least in the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168493 Wed, 06 May 2015 06:54:53 +0000 Ajsmommy 2168493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way. I hit the sack and sometimes I'll go to bed extra early if he's out on the town. Gives me a chance to catch up on sleep and since he's gone I don't miss out on time with him and I also don't get crap for going to be before the sun goes down :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168489 Wed, 06 May 2015 06:52:33 +0000 Mamaof2 2168489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no - he stays out way past my bedtime </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168484 Wed, 06 May 2015 06:42:27 +0000 Modern Daisy 2168484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends what kind of night he's having. Work events end at reasonable times so I will wait up. His friends like to stay out until 2/3am so no way I am staying up for that. When he is not home I will wake up every 30 mins - 1 hr though so it's not the best sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168479 Wed, 06 May 2015 06:38:35 +0000 hotchildinthecity 2168479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not always because when one of us goes out, we let the one who went out sleep in the next morning. So I go to bed so I can cover the morning without wanting to lose my mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168477 Wed, 06 May 2015 06:28:08 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2168477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way! I go to bed. He can stay out so late and the baby gets up by 7 no matter what time we went to bed ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168461 Wed, 06 May 2015 06:02:31 +0000 blackbird 2168461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends how tired I am. I'm really used to DH not being around, after his years in the military, so if I'm tired, i'm headed to bed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168444 Wed, 06 May 2015 05:31:13 +0000 Mrs. Coral 2168444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes I'll stay up late reading, but otherwise I sleep fitfully until he is home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168437 Wed, 06 May 2015 04:58:50 +0000 Andrea 2168437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it's past my bedtime, nope! DH waits for me when I go out though. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168435 Wed, 06 May 2015 04:56:57 +0000 ElbieKay 2168435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stay up because I am an introvert who is constantly starved for alone time in my own house. I crave time to putter around uninterrupted, and I almost never get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168429 Wed, 06 May 2015 03:22:18 +0000 nana87 2168429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, lo still nurses motn most the time so I go to sleep earlier than dh all the time </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168406 Tue, 05 May 2015 23:58:27 +0000 lamariniere 2168406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It really depends. I think I usually go to bed earlier to catch up on sleep! Sometimes I'll stay up late reading though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168401 Tue, 05 May 2015 23:39:12 +0000 Corduroy 2168401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but not out of worry. DH is one of my sleep cues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stay-up-if-your-so-is-out-on-the-town#post-2168374 Tue, 05 May 2015 22:54:12 +0000 mrbee 2168374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually stay up if she is out, just to make sure she is safe!</p> <p>I'm probably going to be the worst dad ever when my kids start going out on weekends... I'll be sitting out on the front porch, waiting for the kids to come home. Oh my goodness, what am I going to do when they start dating?! Haha just kidding, I'll keep them too busy to date until they go to college.</p> <p>Anyway, back to the original question: do you stay up if your SO is out on the town? </p>
