New Gadgets Causing Couple Sleep Issues

As far as we know, couples normally want to see their partner by their bedside when they sleep. But thanks to the fast development of technology, gadgets have now become an obstacle and are contributing towards forcing couples to sleep on separate rooms.
Gadgets range from cellular phones to modern technology developed consoles and rather than sleeping soundly with your loved one beside you, most people have preferred to stay awake and tinker around with them rather than getting good sleep.
So in a sense, you may call technology a bane in some sense. But if you look at it, it may come down to a choice on which is more important; your relationship or your gadget.
“Busy night-time routines are driving couples’ bedtimes and even their bedrooms apart,” the British media quoted Jessica Alexander of the Sleep Council, which carried out the study, as saying. In their study, the researchers surveyed 1,400 people in Britain between Feb 27 and March three.
They found that one in ten couples sleep in different beds every night while a quarter admit to doing so on a daily basis; four in ten people go to bed at a different time to their partner.
