Does it matter to you which side of the bed you or your lover sleeps on???
Posted: 5/28/2008 4:31:59 PM
Okay, I researched the threads and ONLY found two threads that had the subject of "Which Side of the Bed" but were in the "Sex and Dating" thread and "Manitoba" thread and neither had anything to do with my question really, so here it goes:

So, you're in a relationship with someone and the awkwardness has arisen where either one of you is going to "spend the night" at your respective lover's home for the first time. Do you ask your lover which side of the bed do they want to sleep on, let it take it's course or tell her "This is MY SIDE OF THE BED and just expect them to deal with it because it is YOUR home? And what about further down the road when the relationship gets even more serious leading towards cohabitating or even considering matrimony.....do you compromise and let your lover pick the side of the bed that will ultimately be THEIR side throughout the course of the relationship?

I am just curious as to both genders perspectives on this. It might be a silly question, but just wanted to get some views on how the two sexes feel about a simple situation such as this.

Thanks. ~~Beth~~

I will be curteous & move to the otherside for my partner. That issue did come up once. It doesn't matter which side I'm on, because we will meet in the middle. Wink,Wink

very thoughtful of you genxer39, but is this "temporary" or a continual compromise throughout the relationship?

Well at my place I slept on the side my phone was on.. which was the "inside" of the room.. so he would have to sleep on the outside by the door.. to protect me from an intruder..

Now.. at his place.. hmmm can't remember.. been so long ago..

I like "my" side at my place. He can have the other. At his place, same goes for his side preference.

I would hope which side of the bed we would sleep on would be the last thing on our minds.
Otherwise I consider it a "sleepover" and she can have the couch.

I don’t care who claims which side of the mattress as long as he meets me in the spring.

Oh, let's just take this thread and run with it.... it has nothing to do with his side or her side.
It has more to do with compromise and what you're willing to give up or let go of...

I will concede either side of the bed if he makes sure the alarm is barely discernible.
*I'll wake ya sweetie.... shhhhh.....

And if you make me brekky in bed I'll make ya dinner in the buff.

See? Easy peasy.... It's all about give and take.....

Oddly enough, wasn't an issue this time round. As long as he's there, I don't care which side I get as long as I'm with him / he's with me. That's all it takes - and I'm happy happy.

My motto is "If you both prefer the same side of the bed, compromise and BOTH sleep on that side...snuggled very closely...or, best of all - STACKED!" batta-bing, batta-bang...problem solved!

When you are facing the bed from the door, I prefer the left side so that after we make love, I can lay on my side and drape my right leg over his right side as we both drift off to sleep. It doesnt get any better than this.

At home i sleep on my side thats the side with the big stack of books beside it and the night table with all the stuff on it, like the bottle of water, and the lamp, and clock. If i sleep anywhere else dont really care.

It's a nice surprise when you discover that a new partner likes the opposite side from the one you prefer.

I used to have a GF who preferred for me to use the underside of the bed.

I'll take either or. At home I sleep on the left side, but if she got in bed first and took that side, I would bug her, but not really care enough to make her move. If worse came to worse, I could sleep in my lay-z-boy computer chair...or on a oddly shaped rock, if I really had to.

I always take the side farthest away from the door because when that killer/monster /alien comes in he's not getting me first!! Unless of course I need the bathroom in the middle of the night and HAVE to step on the floor where I just know the alligators under the bed will take me down! ................
Really!! lol That's why there's no more drinks for me before bedtime. I need to make it until the morning light! (At which time I can scare myself ..................... by looking in the mirror!)

If I had a Lover or S/O, I would not care which side they slept on as long as we could meet in the middle for "important stuff".
