I have never had to do it because of a snoring spouse. Besides she would be more likely the one to leave because I snore very loudly, I have all my life. So badly that my parents took me to a ear nose and throat specialist when I was only 8 years old. Some times as I am falling to sleep my snoring wakes me up.
BUT, I have left the comfort of the house to hide in the motor home to escape my then 2 year old son. At that point in my past I was laid off from my job and decided to get more schooling especially since my employer was footing the bill. What I ended up doing was enrolling in a course of classes in electronics that if I had taken at regular full time would have taken 18 months, we completed them in 9 months. So to get away from the 2 year old so I could study I would tell the wife I was going to study hall and I would go out into the motor home and study. those days were tough on me, I also suffered a bout with pleurisy during that time and never missed a day of classes. Pulled a solid B+ average in the end.
