An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

A common scenario amongst married and other really close couples. Husband and wife are in an argument. Argument escalates. Husband makes a stupid comment that really angers wife. Cue wife: "That's it! You're sleeping on the couch tonight!" For some strange reason, it's usually the wife who's the exiler, and the husband the exilee. A common trope in Dom Com shows, and a case of Truth in Television. (Another possible reason for exile involves snoring. Probably more common in real life, less common on-screen.) Examples of Exiled to the Couch include:

For withholding sex, a punishment similar in spirit, see Lysistrata Gambit (for which this trope is often the PG equivalent). Not to be confused with Sexiled, where your roommate's sexual escapades leave you temporarily homeless. Examples of Exiled to the Couch include:
