I absolutely hate it.

I move a lot when I sleep..to the point I sometimes end up on the other side of the bed.

The Aries was the only dude who understood the struggle. So we decided to sleep back to back and just wrap one of my legs around his. He thought it was cute-ish and a cancer venus move, it was actually me anchoring myself to him in order to not end up on the opposite part of the bed yet again. All strategy.

It's weird because I like cuddling and all is fine and dandy until I fall asleep. Then I just need space and murdery thoughts start surfacing.

I've tried being the big spoon a few times. My two issues are - when I was dating bigger guys, my arm couldn't comfortably hold them and also, without the forced commitment of the little spoon to stay in place, I give up on the big spoon role and do my nightly tossing and turning.

As a little spoon, it was quite an uncomfortable experience when the scorp ex had to practically squeeze me while we slept. Then life gave me the aqua who didn't like spooning at all. Now I have the leo who is a good in between.

I've always been the spooner, being 6ft 3 tall I've always had boyfriends that were shorter than me, 3 in fact.

First was a cancer and loved being spooned and cuddling up to me

Second was a Pisces and always wanted to be spooned

Third is my current boyfriend libra and we don't spoon at night but it's fine, it gets hot and he doesn't like people breathing in him, it stresses him out, it does to me sometimes too and I don't mind because we do snuggle just when we sleep we have our own sides of the bed, I'd be happy to sleep in my own bed as well I told him when we first started going out that I was more than happy to stay in my own bed (I always used to wake up first in the morning and jump into bed with him and give him a blow job with his tea hahah) but he insisted that I sleep in bed with him.

I guess it's just different, were are very affectionate couple, always kissing and I can't keep my hands off him just when we're in bed were not cold enough to snuggle, we sleep with the fan on plus it's November in Australia
