A married couple should sleep on a twin mattress only if they want to hug each other tightly all night.

Been married 40 years. Have slept on separate floors for over 20 of the 40! It’s the secret to a “good” morning! If you’ve ever seen the Notebook “ movie, you’ll know that in the South, separate bedrooms was a common thing in larger homes. My husband sleeps in the basement because he has an entire world down there; his own bedroom, full bathroom, living room (with a floor to ceiling drink cooler), home office, large walk-in pantry space with a 5’ freezer, laundry space, patio entrance into the back yard which is right next to his 12x12’ storage shed and so forth. It’s a full blown man cave galore completely lined with football memorabilia and he LOVES it. I couldn’t get him out of there with a bomb!!! I rarely go down there because nothing I need is there - it’s kinda like his own apartment in a way. We have a very happy marriage, a house still full of young adult children and 3 busy grandsons who are 7, 6 & 5; and are over at least once a week or more for family dinner & sleep over night. Guess my point is: separate beds, of any size, has worked for us and I’m positive it will for you too!!! TRY IT.
