Ask yourself these four questions:
1. Are you awakened more than once each night by snoring, bathroom trips, accidental jabs or night talking?
2. Do you two go to sleep and wake up at different times?
3. Would you describe your overall sleep habits – length of sleep, nap habits, comfort needs – as different from your partner's?
4. During the night, do you yell something like, "Please for the love of…!" on a regular basis?

Reading some dumb Yahoo article about married couples sleeping in seperate bedrooms. Says over half of couples do this and then it quotes some couple that has been married a year and a half and how it helps their marriage to sleep in seperate beds.
What a bunch of freaking losers. Why even get married?

So you don't sleep in the same bed as your wife? I figured as much. Who cares about any of the stuff you mentioned? If I was going to sleep in a seperate bed I might as well be single.

You figured as much? So you've been contemplating my bedroom activities for awhile? Creepy.
What I do doesn't matter. It seems obvious that there are good practical reasons as to why over 50% of couples would do it.

So I just read that Paul Walker started dating his girlfriend when he was 33 and she was 16. How creepy is that?

They don't love each other and they are staying together to save on alimony, housing costs. Maybe closet cases?

Depends on the state. Most states are 16 at this point but around a third still hang with 18.
www.ageofconsent.com is a good reference. I keep suggesting to them they develop a phone app for easier use, perhaps with location services enabled, but not yet.

I don't know who Paul Walker is but if he did it in a state where it is legal why does James Ford care? He is always so worried about everyone else when his own marriage is obviously failing with the separate bedroom thing.

Mississippi has an age of consent of 16 for females but it drops to 12 if the girl had already lost her virginity. Seriously. Its never been tested in court AFAIK.

12 is too young.

Let's see what you and your wife have to say about it when your daughter is 16.

I don't care what the law says, there is something seriously wrong with a 33 year old man who dates a 16 year old girl.

No I figured the reason you were so bitter is that you didn't any more than once a month and you didn't share bedrooms and you probably didn't exchange Christmas gifts. You aren't even allowed a whole beer.

Madonna: Two failed marriages
Queen Latifah: 43 and never married
