No thank you. It's like sleeping with a huge hot water bottle with bad breath, sharp toenails and the occasional "we need to talk" at 3 a.m. I don't pour molten lava on my head, either.

LOL Adven. Another nope, I kick and occassionally hit in my sleep, if we cuddled up Darren would be black and blue the next morning. Even when we sleep with a little distance he sometimes tells me the next morning how I elbowed him in the ribs or kicked him in the shin.

I like to cuddle to start and then move into my own space. I'm a very light sleeper and if the other person actually has the nerve to breathe or anything, I'll be awake all night long.

I can't be cuddled when I am trying to fall asleep. I need my space so I can flop around and get comfy. I am a big flopper. Once I am asleep, DH can cuddle up to me, that is fine, but usually he cuddles up to me for his alterior motives. That is one of my biggest pet peeves. I tell him: Don't wake me up for sex, if you wanted it, you should have thought about that before I fell asleep. For some reason he thinks in my comotosed state that I will give in, folks it's never happened, it only makes me angry for being woke up.

No cuddling for me. I enjoy my own sleep space.

I like to cuddle but not when I'm trying to actually sleep. I have to have my own space, don't want anyone touching me or laying their arm over me and I can't take the xtra heat anymore.

During the first part of our marriage, my hubby was in the Navy and spent a lot of time at sea or overseas. The worst part of the day was facing the empty bed. It was so hard that often for the first month I would fall asleep on the sofa rather than walk to that lonely empty bed. He too had a hard time sleeping alone. We have a real appreciation for being together in our bed. Neither of us can sleep well without some part of our body touching the other...whether it be hands, feet or bottoms. We both need to know the other is there is beside us. We sleep in a double bed because anything larger would be a total waste of space. We once spent the night with friends whose only accomodations were twin beds...we slept comfortably...both of us together like spoons in the same single bed. Our friends were shocked to discover the other bed not used. When camping we used to zip our sleeping bags together. So yes to cuddling.

We're forced cuddlers because we sleep in a queen sized bed with a 24-pound dachshund and my husband is 6'5". Forced.

That is so sweet, Marysafan. Loved reading that. I begin the night cuddling, then move apart because it is simply too hot. When his full-scale locomotive and pig-snort snoring begins, I sneak OUT of the bedroom--can't take it. (Been doing that for the last 8 years of our 33 years of marriage now. Slept first on a sofa; then on a sofa bed and now, finally, on a real bed that is our guest bedroom/den.) Then, in the morning, I always climb back in and we cuddle again. Great way to wake up and super solution to our sleep need issues.

I'm usually freezing, he's usually hot. I'll have three blankets on top of me while wearing long pants, long sleeved shirt/sweatshirt, and socks and he's barely covered sleeping in nothing but boxers! For this reason we usually sleep under seperate blankets/covers year round. We do get our cuddling in while watching tv or movies at night or even just before we fall asleep, but once I'm asleep - don't touch me. I need my space, he needs his. It works well for us!

cuddle, but spooning way. i cannot breathe if i face him in the bed. i couldn't breathe if one of our kids climbed into bed, even if they were only toddlers. i had to be on the outside, so kidlet went in the middle. i always teased my husband, "if we ever have a 3-way, the other GUY has to go home after we're done! i can't sleep 3 in a bed" LOL

With my DH, a hug, a kiss, and I love you and then I retreat to my side of the bed. My chihuahua does spoon my back while we sleep.

I'm claustrophobic, so it's cuddle for a bit and then go separate ways.
