if it is really bad she might have sleep apnea, I would bring up my concern with her and see if she is willing to see a sleep doctor (don't know the official name for them) and get a sleep study done, I snored like a horse and it turned out I had a pretty bad case of it myself they got me set up with a CPAP machine and I've quit snoring and feel 10,000 time better now it was seriously like night and day.
 
sleep apnea FTW!

have a better pic of her face? from the pic you posted it looks like she has a small nose and narrow chin. that often indicates a small airway making her more prone to snoring and apnea.
gaining weight will make it worse.

Ah, but therein lies a problem, young grasshopper, namely the word "sleep." He would rather sleep next to a girl than by himself. However, while being next to this particular girl, he cannot sleep, thus the option of being alone is preferable, as it allows for sleep.
</wise one>


Earplugs might not always be an option - if you've got those in, and you've got to wake up to go to work or classes, an alarm clock won't do much good if it can't be heard.

You're a lucky man that caffeine still affects you 🙁. I can drink a 2-liter of Mountain Dew right now and I'll still lean back and fall asleep.

To use WoW terms...

* Mountain Dew's Caffeine Stimulus fails. You are immune.

Damn you, diminishing returns!

yea i rarely use the stuff.. all i need is one.. and im good to go...

also all i do is tell myself this is nothing compared to cross country practice in college.. lol.. 😀 and that gives me a little extra energy 😀
 
is your girlfriend massive and fat? My dads friend snores like a maniac, its so bad there is no possible way you can fall asleep in the same room with him, I don't care how deep of a sleeper you are. His wife takes sleeping pills and alcohol when she wants to sleep.

Encourage her to quit smoking. I doubt that it has anything to do with her snoring but its cheaper in the long run.

I hope you still like her when shes a fatty.

Contrary to popular belief, Mountain Dew doesn't really have that much caffeine in it. No more then Pepsi or Coke. Yet somehow the myth got started that it has so much more in it. Don't know how that got started but 355 ml per 12 oz can is the exact same as coca-cola
 
take your pillow, apply to her face, hold for several minutes. ignore her protests. leave the country.

What, you haven't figured out the Pillow Method yet? Just muffle her face with a pillow for about 5 minutes. Cures the bitching, too.

edit: damn, beat me to it
 
haha.. ill def do that.. she'll get a laugh or two outta it..

now her breath is fine.. it has a "tempo" to it.. it just that the tempo is nothing but snoring.. lolol
