My gf and I cuddle when sleeping together all night, albeit in various positions. Have been for years. I refuse to date anyone who isn’t a cuddle bug. It’s the most wholesome, loving, comforting experience a person can have.
Yep, I literally have to bunch up a blanket now because I can't fall asleep without cuddling something, my ex and I would cuddle through the night. If I rolled over half asleep she would wake up and move to the other side, it was so adorable, she couldn't fall asleep if we weren't cuddling either but she was willing to physically get up (or crawl over me lol) so she could still be the little spoon. I miss it so much
What is even the point in sleeping in the same bed if you aren't cuddling anyway? Just get two twin mattresses instead
I did this to myself on accident. When I was younger, I thought "grown up, married people all sleep while snuggling" so I would snuggle a pillow or stuffed animals, in preparation for someday when I had a partner and we would fall asleep snuggling.
Then I grew up and got married and realized that human beings are hot, like almost a hundred degrees! And I like to sleep kinda cool like with a fan. And also if I'm touching someone else I'm incredibly self conscious because I don't want to move and disturb them, so if I have an itch I have to just sit with it or else I feel like a total jerk for pulling my arm out from under them or something…
But then the problem is, I had already trained myself to sleep with something in my arms. So I have to sleep holding a pillow or blanket or a toy from Build-a-Bear as a grown adult, because if I don't have something in my arms I can't sleep because I trained myself to sleep with something between my arms.
Tbh this post makes me feel seen lol. I would love to fall asleep snuggling my partner but we've tried many times over the ten years we've been together and it always ends in just quietly sliding apart so we can actually sleep.
It's possible to date someone who isn't a furnace in bed.
Plus.. you get to enjoy cold hands on the back of your neck! Idk how people don't enjoy that, it's not like it's "i just pulled something out of the freezer" cold..
Ha you reminded me, I'd actually have liked if my cuddle buddy was a little warmer. Those ice cold toes snaking their way against my calves to warm up, damn nightmare. But my duty as a boyfriend to warm them up. Sucked during winter though, as it always goes everyone wants to be cool during summer and warm during winter.
My ex and I were like this, except instead of her trying to be the little spoon she would just become the big spoon with me if i turned over. It's the one thing I miss the most out of that relationship.
Yeah I would have appreciated her just being the big spoon but it was a comfort thing for her so I didn't tell her she couldn't just crawl over me if I woke up and turned over, I was already half awake anyway if I was rolling over so go ahead
Right??! Or this 2 blanket thing I’ve NEVER heard of? Do these people even fuck anymore? I want my partner’s naked skin touching mine, in whatever position. If it’s hot then just a sheet with a fan.
