Well, I am always keen to find new and “out of the ordinary” studies, but this one definitely came out of left field. Professor Gerhard Kloesch and his colleagues at the University of Vienna studied eight unmarried, childless couples in their 20s and they came to the conclusion that “When men spend the night with a bed mate, their sleep is disturbed, whether they make love or not, and this impairs their mental ability the next day…”

The interesting thing is that all the males that were tested reported that they felt better sleeping with their partners.  Nevertheless, measurement of their relation to hormones and physical abilities demonstrated that they were better having slept alone.

In relation to the females tested, although they also experienced disturbed sleep when sharing the bed, they apparently managed to sleep more deeply when they did eventually drop off, since they claimed to be more refreshed than their sleep time suggested.

I would like your opinion…. Do you think that  bed sharing really drains your brains?

Be wise and have fun
