"On the rare nights when my husband does come to bed at the same time as I do, I find that I am so used to sleeping by myself that it is difficult to get to sleep with another body laying next to me.

I can't talk to him while he is playing. There is absolutely no point as he doesn't hear me or is so distracted that I get a 'ummm... ya' a few minutes after I ask him a question.

I have my own computer and it is right beside his. He considers this 'spending time together' even though we won't speak to each other for hours on end. I am getting quite tired of it."
