      My cat snores at us when we’re in bed, just because we’re in bed. He’s not even asleep. The bastard. I don’t snore that loud.

  Intensity matters.

  Light snoring is no biggie and 100% normal.

  When it’s moderate or heavy, or if breathing pauses, esp. Followed by a fit, then it’s a disorder (apnea).

  There are also several reflux conditions that can result from nicotine/alcohol use which all together may worsen snoring, cause daytime mucus buildup (hacking), and sometimes even cause apnea.

    If breathing pauses, esp. Followed by a fit, then it’s disorder (apnea).

    Only if it happens frequently enough. Apparently, having this happen a few times a night is normal for healthy people.

  Yes. Totally normal to have regular mild snoring at any age.

  When I was a teenager all my mates complained that I snored really loud. Then I got diagnosed with severe sleep apneoa in my late 20’s

  why specify MtF in this context, the girlfriend is just F, that doesn’t really require qualifying does it?

    Good idea! No idea why

    Why not? They felt comfortable sharing something, there’s no reason they shouldn’t, why do you have a problem with it?

      because qualifying someone’s gender like that can be dehumanizing …

  Is it normal for young people to have sleep apnea, asthma, or allergies? I shouldn’t have to sketch this out for you to draw a conclusion. People of all ages have various conditions.

  I snore but I have sleep apnea, maybe get that checked if you also have poor sleep

  This is like that doctor telling John Green “sneezing isn’t normal. I never sneeze.” Snoring is normal and probably good for you. When most people are dreaming deeply, they snore. It’s just how we’re built.
