Is the description related to your sleep position accurate? What do you think about sleep position and what it says about your relationship?



YOU'RE THE LITTLE SPOON

In this position, your partner envelops you in a way that feels simultaneously intimate and secure. Because it involves some serious butt-to-penis contact, "it's a very vulnerable position that's sexual, but says, 'I trust you,'"

YOU'RE THE BIG SPOON

This says you're protective of your partner and maybe even a bit possessive.

YOUR PARTNER CRADLES YOUR HEAD ON HIS CHEST

A face-up sleeping position indicates confidence and self-assurance. When your partner sleeps on his back with your head in his arms, it says, "I have the power and I'm using it to protect you,". When you, in turn, face your partner in a fetal position, it shows you depend on him. If you sleep with your head on his chest and the rest of your body sprawled out, it sends the message that you want to make decisions for yourself

YOU FACE EACH OTHER

When you sleep face-to-face, it's an unconscious attempt to look your partner in the eye throughout the night. If your partner suddenly starts facing you, there's a good chance he feels distant and wants to connect, or is hungry for more intimacy — especially if he presses his pelvis against yours.

YOU SLEEP ON YOUR STOMACHS

Because sleeping on your stomach protects the front of your body, the position could be a sign of anxiety, vulnerability, and lack of sexual trust. Unless there are back or neck issues, people tend to face the bed because they don't want to or are afraid to face their emotions. If your partner suddenly starts sleeping facedown, you can cozy up to make him feel more protected.

YOU SLEEP ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE BED

This says you're independent or have a desire to be more separate. If you're typically snuggly sleepers though, this position could be a red flag that something isn't right, whether that means stress at work or an untold secret.

That said, many people start out snuggling to warm up or show affection, then gravitate toward opposite sides of the bed for a random reason — it could be because your partner has sharp toenails, kicks in his sleep, or moves around too much, or because you get hot when you sleep skin to skin,

YOU SLEEP FACING AWAY FROM EACH OTHER WITH YOUR BUTTS TOUCHING

This position suggests you're a confident couple that appreciates your own space: The facing away from each other hints at the ability and desire to be independent, while the butt touch shows you still want to stay sexually connected,

YOU SLEEP WITH NOTHING TOUCHING BUT YOUR FEET OR LEGS

Being far from the brain and the first part of your body to react in the case or a flight or flight response, the feet are the most honest portion of the body, under the least conscious control. If your partner plays footsie with you in bed, it means he craves an emotional or sexual connection.

YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR LEGS AND ARMS TOTALLY ENTWINED

When you sleep with arms and legs tangled, it's a sign that you can't get enough of each other — even while you sleep. "It means your lives are intertwined, that you function as a pair. You probably finish each other's sentences and take care of each other,"

YOU SLEEP DIFFERENT DISTANCES FROM THE HEADBOARD

People who sleep closer to the headboard tend to feel more dominant and confident, while those who place their heads further away from it could be more subservient and have lower self-esteem. Couples who sleep with their heads at the same level are on the same page. Heads that touch are even better: It's a sign that you have like minds and know what's going on in each other's heads

My Cancer and I mostly sleep entwined with arms and legs all tangled up together. I've never slept like that with anyone else and I don't know how it's comfortable, but it is for some reason. Except when he puts his leg weight on mine for too long. Then my legs get squashed. I kind of thought that position means you have abandonment issues and you're afraid the other person will leave so you need to trap them or maybe some codependent thing, because when I move he says "where are you going?" I much prefer the cant get enough of each other reasoning and that makes sense too

Interesting. Me too.

We could be at total opposites of the bed but our butts or feet have to be touching. He will tangle my feet up in the covers with his so I cant pull them away....lol
