... do you sleep on, and why?
This might be just the heat and exhaustion, but......
I've found that with my g/f and I, when we sleep together in the same bed I always end up on the side between her and the bedroom door (being the gentleman and offering her a choice of side). Even in uni with the ridiculously small beds I always ended up on the side nearest the door, and quite often falling on the floor too. If however, the bed faces the door head on so there's no one side nearer than the other, then she'll decide on a side based on an unknown number of factors.
I myself, prefer to sleep with my back to the wall, facing the door as I feel more comfortable. So far I've never slept with her closer to the door than me. Is this a peculiar habit or is it a common thing for most couples?
hmmm i tend to find when im on my own, i end up in the middle, but with a partner they seem to usually end up on the right,which in my room is closest to the door - not sure why that is, must admit ive never thought to ask! lol
It's 'cos you're nearest the kitchen so you get to make the tea when you wake up!
wink :wink:
Ex hubby told me it is a protection thing!!! The man sleeps nearer the door so that he can protect woman if someone breaks in.
I now sleep all over the bed, regardless of who I am sharing it with - maybe I am just a greedy sod!!!!!!!!

I have always slept on the right ( looking from the headboard ) never considered it first time - just been habit ever since, but usually - at home, hotels excluded - that side has been closest to the door, which has been better for me as I have usually had to get up earlier for work ( come to think of it, when I shared a room with my brother ( as children ), my bed was closer to the door as well! ) weird blink
I have the 18 inches of bed nearest the window, Hornyred has the rest confused
BUT NOT THIS WEEK! ! biggrin :D :D
Ive got it all :D :D :D wink

I have the impression that's why I'm always nearer the door, although if there is a homicidal maniac or a pack of ravenous wolves able to get through the door, fat lot of good it's gonna be lol . Also bloody annoying when she gets up earlier than me and won't climb over mad
Same here, right and nearest to the door
i tend to sleep closest to the door to, i think its a man thing to protect his loved one from anybody that may enter, as if we are guarding whats most precious to us, read somthing in a magazine a while back about the same topic and thats the conclusion their experts came up with too, we tend to do it subconsiously, i find if im walking on a road with a woman im the same, ill always walk the road side but im consious about doing this but again its to protect who i am with biggrin
We never sleep together! :shock: Thats naughty and a sin!
It depends......if I'm going to just lie there and talk or do other things then I like the right side of the bed......but if I'm going to sleep I like the left side of the bed nearest the window....don't ask me why....it makes no sense to me either.... confused

I usually stick to the big flat bit on the top of the bed.

I'm left handed so therefore I sleep on the left hand side, looking up from the bed

Dino,
Sub Hornyred for Eagerslut and I could have written that myself !!!
6'3" and sleeps curled up in the foetal position…
According to nzgirl's website, it means he's
- Likely to be vulnerable, sensitive, shy, trusting and quite possibly sociable. dunno
- In bed and relationships in general you are likely to be more willing to explore and try new things. Likely to be quite demanding in certain situations. :twisted: :twisted:
:shock: :shock:

Not saying this just to be different - but - most of the time it is diagonal (top right to bottom left, with one foot out) redface
Well judging from all the comments above I should be a man! I sleep nearest the door and always have done now I think of it.
I have a lovely big bed all to myself now.....but I still sleep on the one side nearer the door!

Oooh you cheeky so and so.... actually (said in best posh voice) for your information the bed is next to the wall so I couldn't possibly walk round the other side of it....unless of course you think I'm superhuman and have the ability to walk through walls and the suchlike?!
biggrin
i sleep on the right hand side
cause i can only sleep on my left side and i have to face out the bed, i have tryed sleeping on the left hand side but i can't sleep facing into the bed confused
on the left, i always have done, although friday nite i wont be alone in it so i guess i'll be in the middle :twisted:
I am ambidexdrous in that there is a groove down each side of my body that locates with the edge of the mattress.
'upfor_txt' manages to aquire the rest of the bed by stealth, or by other means!
rolleyes

I always like to sleep on his left side, left of the bed from the top, and cuddle up till we drift off to sleep.
If I'm on my own, which I am most of the week, pillows in the middle and me in the middle.
But this can also depend on where any cats that have sneeked in sleep, last one at someone's house, slept on top of me, with his paws about 2 " from my face.
