[Misc] Assuming there are 2 of you, which side of the bed do you sleep?

[BBassic]

My side is the right but since my girlfriend dumped me I've taken to starfishing it right in the middle. That'll show her

 

[SouthCoastOwl]

On the right

 

[Mellotron]

On the right, but naturally have always made myself closest to the door.

 

[Exile]

This even extends to always walking on the pavement closest to the road - it's just the natural urge to protect.

Not sure about that. If we're walking along a pavement with a road one side, and a park / bushes / etc the other, she'd want protecting from the latter rather than the road.

 

[DavidRyder]

I'd like to say 'inbetween', but that will never happen

 

[Whoislloydy]

I have this weird thing of only being comfortable if i'm on my left hand side facing a wall

 

[Notters]

Okay my theory is that the most dominant person in the relationship should sleep nearest the door. A man who has manned up should sleep nearest the door. A man who has allowed himself to be walked all over will sleep furthest from the door. I asked the left right question as I didn’t want to sway the discussion/poll towards this theory but knew it would come out of this.

Surely it's far more likely that men are likely to sleep wherever is coolest - in my case next to the open window - as women tend to feel the cold more?

I am female and sleep nearest the door. Wouldn't say I am the most dominant person though - him indoors thinks he is.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Right, but only because the missus insists on being on the left.

 

[Giraffe]

Rubbish that.

I would say that my marriage has no dominant partner, but I however will always put myself in harms way first over my wife and children.

This even extends to always walking on the pavement closest to the road, it's not a sign of dominance it's just the natural urge to protect.

You have worded what I think in a much better way than I did I have to say. Dominant wasn't quite the right word.

Well no theory is 100% perfect!

 

[narly101]

Now I’m the opposite, as Mrs backson always wants to be nearest the bathroom, just in case.

Same here, but not with Mrs Backson

 

[Super Steve Earle]

I sleep the side I'm told and leave such matters to Mrs Earle.

 

[Two Professors]

The dry side.

Beat me to it!

 

[Dave the OAP]

No option for "On top of her"?

in your dreams hahahahaha

 

[tinycowboy]

On the left, nearest the bathroom door, the same distance away from the door to the landing as my wife. I'm left handed, and I can't hear so well out of my left ear. Hope this helps confirm the findings so far.

 

[Brovion]

Right side. And the bedroom door is on the left. (We're both right-handed btw)

Also when my wife and I are walking together I have to walk on the right-hand side of her.

You're only on this thread to SHOW OFF about having an ensuite. I know your game.

 

[1234andcounting]

On the left; although interestingly (for me,anyway) in our current house that means I am nearest the door, and away from the window, but in our previous house, I was nearest the window and furthest from the door.

On holiday the better half always sleeps nearest the window and furthest from the door.

Fascinating stuff. You could be on to something here. I don't know what it is, but you could be on to it.

Rumbled. May I mention my charming dining room too? Actually, if you saw my "ensuite", you'd be shocked. My wife refuses to enter it. It's not very roomy.
