Today, it's 2am. I've been trying to get to sleep for the past two hours next to my snoring boyfriend. Every time I nudge him to shut him up, his body tenses, he farts, then goes straight back to snoring. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after not being able to sleep for two hours because my boyfriend wouldn't stop talking, he fell asleep and I was left wide awake. I listened to him snore for another three hours and only got a couple of hours sleep. He's not working today, but I am. FML
Today, I tried to get my boyfriend to roll over while he was asleep. He snores loud enough to wake the neighbors and if he lays on his side he usually stops. Instead of rolling over, he stuck his leg in the air, farted twice, and laughed about it in his sleep. He's still snoring. FML
Today, and like every day before it, my boyfriend’s snoring is keeping me up all night. FML
Today, my fiancé, my two-year-old, and my dog are all sleeping peacefully next to me in our new king-sized memory foam bed. It's 2:15 in the morning. Why am I not sleeping? Because they all snore, one right after the other. It's like an endless song of snoring. FML
Today, I was woken up at 4 in the morning by my boyfriend farting on my leg and giggling in his sleep. For the third time. FML
Today, and for the past four years, the only time my husband stops snoring while asleep is so that he can fart. FML
Today, after struggling for hours to fall asleep with my husband's rather rattling snoring, I finally managed to drop off… only to be rudely awakened an hour later by my husband elbowing me in the face in his sleep. FML
Today, my energetic 10-month-old decided to stay up four hours past bedtime. After I FINALLY got him to sleep, I tried to go to bed. My husband is now snoring, farting and taking up my side of the bed. I desperately need some sleep. FML
Today, I noticed the only time my husband stops snoring like a drunken horse is so that he can fart. FML
Today, between my cats scratching every surface they can find, my boyfriend's snoring, and the dog barking at every slight noise outside, I'm unlikely to ever get more than 3 hours of sleep at a time. FML

Maybe go to another room or bed OP, because you have to rest. Best of luck..

I have to do this to my husband. I tell him to roll onto his side (Which stops the snoring). He's a heavy sleeper and I'm a very light sleeper. When he rolls back, I just do it again. It can really suck. The way OP writes it seems he doesn't even wake, his body just reacts.

So are you telling us that he snores from both ends?

Which end are you going to plug up?

Has he ever been tested for sleep apnea? Sounds like my husband to a T... He uses a CPAP now and it is a whole world of difference.

He needs to be tested for sleep apnea and probably needs a CPAP machine and acid reflux medication. Especially if he has any of the other symptoms, like frequent chest/sinus infections, raspy voice, fatigue, nausea, etc. Snoring is a sign that something is wrong with the body that is interfering with the procedures needed for effective and restorative sleep.

Hold a pillow over his face to drown out the noise.

If you are a tired girlfriend, why are you listed as male?

I think if you sleep with someone who snores you have 3 choices. earplugs....learn to block it out or leave the room. pretty sure complaining will not help.
