What are your sleeping arrangements and how is you intimacy?

[Anonymous]

Do you still share a bedroom? What size bed? Do you sleep back to back? Face to face? Holding hands? Do you feel you have a high level of intimacy (not necessarily sexual) or a high level of comfort with you spouse/SO?

I ask because DH and I have recently gone from a king to a full sized bed during a move and we actually love it. We sleep like a pretzel with our legs woven together and arms wrapped or linked or hands being held. I feel like I sleep better knowing I'm not alone. In our king bed, we had a tendency to separate and have no contact at all. You could've put 2 more people between us most nights. I don't know if the small bed requiring us to be close is what did it or what, but I feel like our relationship has impoved, even with the moving stress.

I cannot stand bring cramped when I sleep. I get too warm. I don't equate sleeping close to someone with intimacy.

We have a Queen and both DH and I need our space to sleep. I feel suffocated if I sleep cuddling with someone. Our intimacy is great...sex 4-5 times a week. We usually cuddle together until we are ready to fall asleep. Usually start off sleeping facing each other, but we both change positions throughout the night.

We sleep in the same bed, a king. We start cuddling when we first get in bed and then we roll over to our opposite sides. We both like space and don't like to be hot.

I don't equate cuddling though to intimacy. We get it on regularly, though.

We have a queen bed, and mostly sleep in the middle of it. It definitely helps the cuddling, and we do find that physical closeness helps our emotional closeness.

This always reminds me of river otters sleeping holding hands so they don't drift apart. It's adorable

I can't deal with sharing a bed with someone. It has caused a lot of relationship issues over the years.

I should clarify that I'm currently single.

We have a king-sized bed. We've always slept together. ?? Our intimacy is great. I move around a ton in my sleep - always have - so we may start out cuddled together, but then I might end up laying on my stomach. Sometimes we go to sleep facing each other too.

I am married and we do not share a bed. Our intimacy and sex life is great. We snuggle daily - we just sleep in different beds.

Well, we currently cosleep with our toddler so not much intimacy but lots of snuggles and belly rubs with the little one. Our other baby is in a crib at my bedside. So no, not a lot of snuggles but we show love and affection i other ways... I guess it all works out.

we sleep in separate rooms and haven't had sex in about 18 months.

This is us exactly. We lay there in each others arms for a while, talking and joking, then when someone starts to snore we go to our seperate sides.

Same with me, except a queen size bed. We have sex 1-2x/week. It used to be more frequent but we have a 3 month old.

We have a ton of intimacy, but sleep apart from each other in our queen bed. We don't like touching in our sleep and DH gets hot. We aren't even big with cuddling in bed, but we have lots of cuddling outside bed (on couches or just random hugs, hand holding).
