What Rules Govern Sleeping Times in a Relationship?

DEAR AUNTIE ABENA,

I am an early bed guy; I sleep early and have no issues with sleeping. My lady is rather a night owl, struggles to sleep and often sleeps late.

This weekend I travelled from Accra to visit her at her station somewhere in the Eastern Region..She went for morning duty on Saturday as a midwife whiles I waited for her. When she came, we went to Linda Dor, Bunso, to spend time together. We came home about 8pm. I was tired so I bathed immediately. She did same and joined me in bed but she wouldn’t want me to sleep.

She kept harassing me, pulling me here and there to the extent of pouring water in my ears. Why? She says a man must watch her lady to sleep first before he sleeps. This particular argument has gone on for a while in our 6 months relationship.

I want to know from your fans whether it’s a rule that men should sleep last in the home. Those in similar situations may share how they’ve managed it without any issues.
