Cameron Diaz Says Couples Should Sleep In Separate Beds, Have Separate Houses, And Have A Place In The Middle Where They Can Fuck
Source - The actress, who is married to Good Charlotte guitarist Benji Madden, says of their one-time sleeping arrangement: "I have my house, you have yours. We have the family house in the middle. I will go and sleep in my room. You go sleep in your room. I'm fine."
The 51-year-old actress made the comments on the Lipstick On The Rim podcast as hosts Molly Sims and Emese Gormley discussed their partners' snoring.
"We should normalise separate bedrooms," Diaz said.
"I would literally - I have my house, you have yours. We have the family house in the middle. I will go and sleep in my room. You go sleep in your room. I'm fine. "And we have the bedroom in the middle that we can convene in for, you know, our relations."
She added: "By the way, I don't feel that way now because my husband is so wonderful. I said that before I got married." Diaz has been married to Good Charlotte guitarist Benji Madden since 2015 after they reportedly started dating in 2014.
Yes. Yes from the highest mountain top, yes. There truly is nothing worse than sleeping in a bed with another human. It's fun at first, but after about a week the fun wears off and you find yourself in a nightly battle for everything from the covers to the pillows to the temperature to the TV. He sleeps cold, I sleep hot. He wants a lightweight duvet, I don't even know what a duvet is. The logistics of sleeping in the same bed take the fun out it. The bed is supposed to be a place for fucking and frolicking (after marriage of course). Instead what it becomes is a place where you go to get a subpar sleep next to a partner who also gets a subpar sleep. Which is why Cameron hit the nail on the head 100%. All you have to do is simply afford two houses, with two beds, and place in the middle for "relations." There's even science behind it...
"Experts have said that relationships can benefit from separation at bedtime.
Rather than a sign you're giving up, shifting to the spare room to cope with snoring could mark the "beginning of a new relationship", said Russell Foster, a professor of circadian neuroscience at the University of Oxford.
