How do you and your husband sleep in bed?

My partner and I usually start off the night curled up together either spooning or with me laying my head on his chest. This only lasts for about 10 minutes before we're both on opposite sides of the bed. We both like our space and I tend to sleep hanging off the side. I'm always worried this is an indication we aren't compatible or something.





How do you and your husband sleep? Thanks!How do you and your husband sleep in bed?
Not cuddling all night isn't an indicator of incompatibility. Most people like their space when they're sleeping. Now, if you're in separate beds, that could be a sign....and sometimes that's not even a sign but more a case of one being a light sleeper and the other being a heavy snorer and restless/tossing turning type of sleeper like my hubby. LOL We no longer sleep in the same bed because of his sleep issues and because I can't stand wearing earplugs and getting woke up by kicking legs or loud snoring. LOLHow do you and your husband sleep in bed?
It's not being incompatible - the opposite if anything. You like your space but if you are like us, we do what you do because we don't want to disturb the other.





We tried staying together early on in our marriage, but a number of times I would lie awake with my arm under her, waiting till she rolled over so I could get my ';dead'; arm back without waking her up.





We have been married 25+ yrs and we are very compatible, doing just what you do. Have fun!
Before our daughter was born (she now sleeps between us, lol), we were exactly like you and your husband. We would start out the night together, showing affection, but would soon be on opposite sides of the bed. This is very normal. The positions we enjoyed for affection weren't comfortable for a good nights sleep. We usually still found ourselves touching, even if it was just our feet, lol.





No worries, I'm sure yall are very compatible.
This is totally normal sleep behavior. My wife and I do the same. She has a certain way she wants to lay when she is ready to go to sleep. I have a certain way I want to lay. We usually end up turned away from each other. Sometimes we will fall asleep close to each other, but eventually we make our own way. Besides it gets hot as hell laying too close to each other and you don't want to sweat up the bed unless you're doing somethin else.
It's sweet to think two people can lie wrapped in each other's arms all night long...very highly unlikely in reality...ha. I love my guy very much and we are very compatible and get along wonderfully. We always start out about the same...his arm under my head and me snuggled up to him and my head kind of on his shoulder. We can't stay like that for long...he likes to sleep on his side and I sleep on my back so after a while we give each other a kiss and get into our comfortable positions so we can actually sleep! I don't think this has anything to do with compatibility...more to do with needing good rest! Good luck and don't worry!
We curl up together. A few years ago I would sleep ON HIM.


He would lay on his back and I would lay on his belly and sleep. He would lay on his belly and I would lay on his back.


Now...we curl together..spoon. He turns, I turn. He shifts, i shift.


Sometimes I rest my head on his hip (not his tummy) or his arm.


Occasionally I veer towards my side...the edge of the bed. He will wake up in the middle of the night and call out or reach out to me and pull me close. Or scoot closer to me.
My husband likes to cuddle but I don't like to be touched when I sleep. I try to give him some cuddle time and then we roll apart and sleep on our own. Sometime i will lay my hand on his back so that there is some contact.





As long as you are both happy with the sleep position and it isn't causing problems in your relationship during the day I wouldn't stress it. It is also a sign of security for you to be comfortable without touching all the time.
my husband and i have been married 4months but lived together for almost 2yrs before marriage and we sleep pretty much like you. we always spoon while we watch t.v. but when we're ready to fall asleep we kiss eachother and turn to face the opposite directions. its completely normal, it doesnt mean that you arent compatible or that you dont love eachother it just means you like your space when you sleep. i cant have anything touch me, the dogs, etc when i sleep. plus my husband gets really hot in his sleep. its just more comfortable.
She likes to be close when we go to bed.


But, after about 20 min or so, I have to seperate and find a more comfortable position.


And so does she.


Early in our marriage we were up against each other all night.


But we were young then, and going without sleep was no big deal.


Now, after 20 years, we both need our space in the bed to get the sleep we need.
my fiance and i have been living together for over a year and we have always slept spooning each other! example i will be lying curled up and he will hold me from behind. we usually wake up this way as well.





try not to view your sleeping habits negatively, things become an issue once you make them an issue. as long as you know your communication and relationship in general isnt suffering, all will be fine :)
when we are in bed we don't sleep...*wink* and then we actually end up sleeping in separate rooms. He works 3rd shift during the week, so on the weekend, we just aren't used to sleeping together. We're still good and happy and all the sex is wonderful, so don't worry.
that's how me and my ex slept. Then he complained about my snoring, so we stopped cuddling. Then he complained about me not cuddling, so I started again, then I got a firm pinch, n turned over. On my side, there's a pic of Jesus. Well...next morning, he got up, and told me he didn't want me anymore since I loved jesus so much...I can have him. Although, during our honeymoon period, my snoring didn't bother him.
well my husband likes to sleep on his side and hates sleeping on his back so most the time we sleep on our sides but there are nights when he lets me sleep with my head on his chest but soon I roll on my side too cause it can be a pain in the neck (literally!! lol) We sleep on a full size bed so we are really close all night and he tends to steal the blankets alot! hahahaha!
More often then not we are not even in the same room. When he is home, its like musical beds around here. We actually race to see who gets the guest bed first. Its the most comfy. But even if we fall asleep in the same bed, he gets up and goes to his own bed in the middle of the night.
It's nice to spoon or hold each other tight for a while, but you also get awful warm this way. People tend to get apart when they get too warm or it, the normal side they sleep on. Just keep up the cuddling and spooning at the beginning of bed time.
I'm in bed around 9. He gets home at 3am. I don't usually notice he came home until the 4am feeding for our baby. It's pretty sad right, but I do love waking up to him next to me, even if we don't get to muddle anymore. He used to bring the mud. The last part was an inside joke. :)
No one spoons all night. We all need our own space when we sleep in order to fully rest the body. My husband and I always start the night holding hands. At some point we drift off to sleep and find our own spaces. It has nothing to do with compatibility.
Please be advised you are normal.


When we do get to bed at the same time, hubby likes me to lie on arm, chest area,


when I


wake up, I'm in the same place, but my husband is already off to work


`God bless~
Don't worry about that being an indication of anything. We are the same way. Lots of people like their space, too. Didn't you watch that episode on ';Friends';?





Regards,

Pretty much the same way. Sleep is sleep, don't read something into it that's not there. You're as compatible as any other couple that wants to get a good night's sleep. Nite nite!
very normal..not that im married...but my parents are...they hardly sleep in the same room because my mom thinks my dads snores are hella annoying...but they LOVEEEEEEE each other more then any1 ive ever known.
I sleep the same way..and it is normal. Have your bonding at first then go to your sides of bed for comfort..In general most people like comfort while they sleep and that is easier if not up homebody's A**
same start. Than a little enjoying of each other...then to whatever makes us comfortable.
at first we snuggle... but we both know we each really prefer sleeping on opposite sides (of ourselves, not the bed) so we end up butt to butt.
We don't sleep together.
We sleep on opposite ends of the sectional couch.! Go figure.
I was married for 9 yrs and yes, that's how we slept too. Nothing wrong with that - it's normal.
start spooning against my back


then end up on my side with all the blankets lol
