DH is out celebrating the end of his fire academy. I'm drinking wine in bed and reading a magazine. Why am I not asleep?! (It's 1130 here)
Do you wait for your SO to get home to go to sleep?

Nope, if dh is out with friends or at a celebration he's usually not home before midnight (if he comes home at all) and I'm asleep way before then.

I'm a night owl anyway, so I usually am up just because. I don't generally stay up late waiting for him, unless we're traveling and staying with friends/relatives. I'm much better at getting around a different home (particularly b/c if he's out that late, he's usually wobbly), so I use it as a nice excuse to make a late snack and hear all the great stories.

I do. I like to make sure he got home safe or if he needs a ride he knows he can call me

No way!
DH often works late nights, gets back at 2am or later, I get up for work at 5:30.

Not usually! Although now I'm thinking I should be a better wife and wait up for him when he gets home from class I'm sure your DH appreciates it!!

No way! LOL. I am tired from being with the kids all day. Last night he got home from work at 9 pm, I said "hi, and goodnight I love you!" and went to bed. So if he gets home much later than that, I would have already been zzzzzzzz.

I try to go to sleep, but I always wind up doing what you're doing. Can't fall asleep if he's out, for some reason! If he's out of town I usually go to bed waaayyy late, too... so maybe it's not that I'm waiting up? We usually get ready for bed together.

My DH generally works till 9:45, and gets home shortly after 10. I try very hard to wait for him, so we can chat and catch up. (I leave at 6:45 am when he is still sleeping!) Sometimes I dont make it though.....
If he goes out, yes I try to wait up, or he is allowed to wake me up so I know that he got home. He is a home body, so he doesnt often go out with friends, with the exclusion of his hockey games which sometimes start at 11 pm!

When it was just us, I would sometimes to see how his night was or if he needed help aka drinking too much. With LO here, I usually don't because I need to sleep to wake up with my dude.

I try to sleep, but I usually find it hard until DH gets home. I don;t intentionally stay up to wait for him unless I want to for some reason... but if he's coming home after midnight I'll be in bed before he gets home lol.

I used to until recently bc of DS's horrible sleep. I'm in bed as soon as I can. Every minute of shut eye is precious. haha!

Nope. I need my sleep. Sometimes I happen to be awake in bed when he gets home. There were a couple days he was working until 8 the next morning this summer.

Usually. I sleep better with him in bed and I prefer staying up later anyways. The only times I don't are the (rare) occasions he is out past like, 1am.
