Headphones or low volume playing advice wanted

I look over at the SR 5 I picked up earlier this year and think about playing just to remember “she’s asleep” (of my girlfriend in bed) and before long I realize I haven’t played in months.

I’ve been anti-headphone forever, because I’ve never felt right if I couldn’t feel it, but I’m accepting that if I don’t adjust I’ll never play. So this is where all of you come in. I’m can’t be the first one to discover “this isn’t working” and I don’t want to reinvent the wheel, please let me know what you’ve tried, what is working or what doesn’t.
