Will you say good night to your spouse?

I am wondering whether you will say good night to your spouse. We don't say good night to each other. Usually we will talk many things before fall asleep. Then when it is late, one will become a little silent and that means to say we will sleep soon.

Hello youless!:-) We didn't use to say good night, each night, formally. Some times we said and other times, just like you, one went asleep, so did the other. But, there is another interesting thing too, that saying good night seldom worked in our case, LOL! Most of the times, if one of us said good night, you would find us talking to each other again after a few minutes. It seemed never ending and then one of us would just go asleep. It doesn't mean that one should or shouldn't say that, it's just that it rarely worked in my case:-)

My husband usually comes home after i am already asleep.. but when he does get home i have a tendency to wake up.. not a sound sleeper... then i get up pee and then we kiss each other goodnight.. he comes to bed we snuggle and we say sweet dreams... i can not sleep comfortably if we do not say good night to one another.. its like that saying dont go to bed mad at one another... also dont go to bed without wishing eachother a good night

No, we do not say, good night to each other, since we sleep together on the same bed so we do not feel like saying 'good night' to each other. Moreover, I am from India and it is not a customary practice to say 'Good Night' to each other, before sleeping.

We would pray before sleep and kiss each other then say good night. It is a routine for both of us. We can't sleep if we can't do that routine. Happy posting. Have a great day!

We normally dont say good night to each other but more importantly our actions say it all much more than good night when we go to sleep. I would normally wait for him to be there by my side to see that i sleep well before he goes back to his work researching stocks for investments.

I don't have a spouse yet:-) I live with my parents now.When I was younger,I said good night to my daddy and mummy every night before i went to bed.But I don't say it now,for I sleep late at night while my parents go to bed early.Usually when I go back home they have already slept. I think saying good night is very nice.

I say good night to my hunny everynight. We try to spend a few min cuddling. Then I give him a smooch and we go to bed. Some nights if hes really tired and had a long hard day he falls asleep almost as soon as he hits the pillow. I still tell him I love him and give him a kiss.

We always say goodnight to each other and give a kiss, also. It is our way of ending the day. I do not believe that I could a good night's sleep , if we did not say goodnight to each other. We also say good morning to each other. It is our way of beginning each day.

We don't wake up at the same time. So usually I just wake up sneakly to avoid to make him awake:)

Hello youless, Sometimes it is the same case with us like you do, but sometimes we say good night to each other before falling asleep.

I do not take notice whether we say good-night to each other. it is not that we are not going to see each other again, because we do sleep in the same bed. I will say that I am tired and will go to bed, but that is about all. I am not a heavy sleeper, so I will not go to sleep soon, but I will doze. Saying good-night means that you are going to fall asleep as soon as you hit the pillow and I cannot do that.

Yes we still say good night to each other and we still give each other our goodnight kiss. WE talk a lot before we sleep and I end up always in his arms. Then when we felt that we are both sleepy then we just say it, then say good night then have our good night kiss.. then that is a very good night sleep. I dont know but maybe we are just used doing that.

I do say good night to my spuse and even give him a hearty hug and a passionate kiss before we sleep. We are so used to that. Our night seems to be incomplete without it. Even our kids says good night to us and kiss us.
