[quote=Anonymous]I'm a night owl sating an early bird. I'd rather not be a night owl, but it's just the way my circadian rhythm is (have been to sleep doctor, etc.).

You "agreed to go to bed early"? That doesn't work. He isn't going to fall asleep.

You should go to bed and wake up when you want to. He should go to bed and wake up when he wants to. This is assuming you don't live in a studio apartment.

If you share a bedroom, he should stay in the living room until he is ready to sleep. Then he should slip very quietly into bed. Before you go to bed, get your clothes etc together so that you can wake up quietly, leave the bedroom, quietly close the door, and get dressed outside the bedroom.

Basically you need to be quiet in the morning and he needs to be quiet in the evening so you can both sleep according to your circadian rhythms.

Whether you both view having that time apart in the late evening and early morning is up to you both. But trying to force the other to go to bed early or late is not the answer.[/quote]
