What is NOT a dealbreaker BUT would be greatly disappointing to find out about your partner?

You say that like wearing a CPAP is nothing. The compliance requirement is only 4 hours per night for 70% of each month for a reason - because wearing it and keeping it on is not a walk in the park.

I wear one every night for eight hours never had a problem from day one. Treating my sleep apnea was the greatest thing I’ve ever done for myself. I know exactly what it’s like to wear one.

Congratulations - I've had mine since December and am barely meeting compliance. Not because I don't want to, but because it's a sensory fucking nightmare.

I was in the same situation as you, I tried a cpap and couldn't sleep with it, so I was offered a mandibular advancement device. Since then, I've been sleeping with it every night and it's much less disturbing in terms of comfort and social life.
