Stare At The Sun

Whenever me and my girlfriend lay together, we always find it kinda difficult to get totally comfortable. One of us always has an arm that is just kinda there, and is rather akward and uncomfy. Soo, has anyone figured out a magical position to lay in?

(If this should be in Tilted Living, please just move it )

Harshaw

When spooning I tend to have one arm over her and the other one under her head. It works fine till we want to sleep. Normally all I can do it throw my arm out of whack, its painful and makes it so I can't sleep as well, but I think spooning is worth it.

That looks like a good way to spoon.

loverboy and I always lie perfect in our couch..but that because of the couch itself and not a particular postition. But when we're spooning in bed we lie as Harshaw described it - that always works for us

The two positions that i can sleep in are:

Both facing the same direction, me behind her, top arm around, bottom arm under her pillow

Me on back, her with head on my shoulder with arm around her, bottom arm either under me or tucked in, top arm around me


I've never founda comfortable way to sleep facing eachother.

What size bed is it?

Spooning is always good. lurkette and I usually spoon on our left sides, with me on the left and her on the right (looking down from the ceiling). I usually wrap my right (top) arm around her waist, or hold her left breast. Sometimes I sneak my left (bottom) arm under her head and put my hand on her chest or her right breast. That works pretty good, but it gets warm after a while. I'm a radiator in bed.

Butt-to-butt is pretty good too.

Our problem is, lurkette's got the Jimmy Legs. She lays there and chases bunnies all night. We had to pony up for a king size bed, just so I could get far enough away from the action to get some sleep.

We probably spoon like Harshaw said or I snuggle up behind hubby. I got this thing I do to tuck my lower arm, folded up against me that allows me to get nice and close.

I just can't stand sleeping all tangled up though. I'll eventually roll over on my tummy just beside hubby. Also he gets hot so quickly and I always have to have blankets so we just aren't compatable in that way.

Just like the girls in Xsas's picture, but move one of them up about a foot, so that the one (in my case, my wife) has her head under the other (me, in this case) - sorta looking into the neck area.

Doesn't work so well on the cold winter nights when you need the blankets pulled way up, but it means you can get pretty darn close and still be comfortable (and still breathe!).

la petite moi

Oh snuggle!!! I love this thread already.

We lay like this: He lays on his back with his arm a little out like a chicken. And then I snuggle into his armpit (sorta), then put my head onto the chest area right above his armpit. And then he puts his arm around me, or just leave it there.

AWWWWWWW. Sorry, I hope you understand my description.

ruggerp11

meh, I have the same problem, cept it then carries over into the fact that I toss and turn when I sleep.

My fiancee and I have been sleeping comfortably in a single bed for six months now

We either have both of us on our sides (if I'm behind her I'll put one arm under the little crook in her neck where it won't fall asleep and the other over the top of her, like I'm giving her a hug... she hasn't yet found a place to put her arm under me if I'm in front so she just tucks it up in between) or with my lying on my back and her on her side with her head on my chest.

God I love it too... I'm glad we don't have a bigger bed, I just love falling asleep so close to her.

I'm glad I don't have to worry aobut this at the moment. I've kicked several holes in my walls while asleep, I'd hate to think of what I could do to another person.

Gotta love holding the breast. For me, it isn't even sexual (well, sometimes). It gives me such a feeling of acceptance, and I'm so content I fall asleep almost immediately.

zippy

i love her cuddled to me with her head on my chest

jazz

He has a twin bed so there is not much room to get super comfortable. I find it pretty comfortable when we spoon and he has one arm under my head and the other one laying across my waist. Or he lays on his back and i lay my head on his chest with one arm tucked against me. one over his chest and one leg thrown over his.

haha, Xsas, thats exactly what i thought of at first. For those of you have not seen it, its a funny segment comparing how not knowing where to put the hand was a metaphore for life. I'd post the transcript but I can't find it online...

hu-man

That's exactly how me and lovergirl () cuddle. Usually we fall asleep with her on my chest, or our heads are chin to chin, almost. Every once in a while we lay back to back, though. You just need that sometimes.

^- LMFAO ... Some of the things you come up with OK, just fuckin crack me up. Thanks

-on a side note, just before bedtime when we're in cuddle mode, my SO would lay on his back and i lay on my side curled up next to him, my head in the sorta spot on his chest next to his shoulder, and i wrap one leg around him. *wistful sigh*

I start a fight so that she stops trying to lay on top of me and I can spread out and go to sleep.... lol

it's not quite like that.. I usually try and spread out which starts the fight.. i just cant sleep with somebody pressed against me... I dont mind snuggling when I'm awake.. but when it's sleep time get the fuck off me... I need my space.

I know EXACTLY what you mean.

Sounds like something Nwlinkvxd was trying to pull the other day. I was wearing underwear, and he kept cramming his dick into my crack, giving me a mondo wedgie.

Averett

That is nice. Wistful sigh indeed.

That's exactly how me and my girlfriend sleep. Her head gets uncomfortable sometimes, so I gotta pull my arm out from underneath her head, but we still sleep the same way.

Ever see that episode og friends, where Ross and Chandler discuss sleeping arrangements? That's me... Cuddle with GF's head on my chest, until GF is in sleep-mode, then hug, roll, disengage, lie on my own side of the bed, toss/turn for a while, become comatose, snoring, machine...

My fiance' and I like to snuggle when we first go to bed, usually face to face holding each other or with me on my back and her head on my chest. When it comes sleep time though we untangle and go to our seperate corners! At least until she falls asleep. In her sleeping life my dearest is apparantly a champion gymnast and she bounds around the bed utilizing all available space including the area I occupy. Once the weddings paid for I want a king sized bed! I'm a very sleepy man.

She usually falls asleep on my arm while I'm reading in bed or begging for sex. Then when the discomfort from my arm falling asleep becomes unbearable, I gnaw my arm off and go play video games.

BTW, I noticed some of the guys mention that they are generally warmer in bed than the ladies. Me, I'm a furnace but the girl is generally cold. Is this a common bed-time phenom.?

PS: Not trying to change to subject, just occured to me as a sleeping with SO comfort issue!

We usually only spoon for a little while and then move to our neutral corners when it comes time to actually sleep. I often come to bed after she falls asleep too because she has a difficult time falling asleep when I am in bed with her.

I lay on my side and put my arm under her pillow or under her head. Then I put my other arm around her. Preferably around her chest becuase my arm likes to rest there. LOL

la petite moi

No seriously!!!!! That's how it is with Nwlinkvxd and me!

Derwood

My wife calls me the "Human Space Heater" so we usually end up sleeping without touching each other just for comfort's sake.

I lay on my back, hands to myself. Always. I've been told I'm great to fuck, lousy to sleep with.

icksters

When my boyfriend and I sleep together we usually start off cuddling. Then as soon as we both fall asleep we kind of seperate and sleep how we normally would if we were alone, its a bit weird.

ariekitten

thats how i like to sleep with an SO.....leg wrapped over and my head on the chest

yes, I think it has alot to do with hormone cycles... I go to sleep with the AC on 65, ceiling fan on and uncovered or nothing but a sheet.. even in winter... I wake up freezing... my wife is the exact opposite...
