Claiming that his safety is at risk because of her is incredibly manipulative, especially since he has admitted that he doesn't wake up when she comes to bed later!

It's like he can't handle the thought that she is having fun without him, even if that fun is just some well-needed alone time and unwinding before bed.

Controlling boyfriend imposes bedtime on 31-year-old girlfriend, refuses to compromise and banishes her to the couch if she doesn't comply: "I could crash if I don't get enough sleep"
Going to sleep at the same time as your partner totally rocks. In the rare event that our sleep schedules align, my fiancé and I like to scroll through Instagram reels together, cackling until we run out of breath and energy. Then, he'll spoon me until he falls asleep. When I start to hear his snores, I push him off because I can't really sleep with limbs weighing on me. Unfortunately, our sleepovers are few and far between. I get tired really early, and he needs a few hours to unwind before he comes to bed.
In our story today, a controlling boyfriend insists that his girlfriend ignore her natural sleep schedule in order to sleep at the same time as him. He spurns every attempt to compromise and attempts every manipulation tactic in the book to control her sleeping habits. Soon, our protagonist will have to decide if she wants to continue in a relationship that includes an imposed bedtime. Scroll down for more.
