What side of the bed do you sleep on?

Contributor: Chilipepper Chilipepper
As Miss Price told Mr. Browne as they were climbing onto the magical flying bed in 'Bedknobs and Broomsticks': "You take that side; I always travel on the left."

My single years were spent all over the bed, both twin and full.

I started my marriage on the left of the queen bed, and found I liked it. Then the husband declares during the second years of marriage, he wanted the left. Fine, he got the left, and I got the right, but I ended up sleeping with my head at the other end of the bed because of his GD snoring. Also interesting how the right side is always the most inconvenient side to get out and go to the bathroom and I'd always end up with bruised legs. I think he did that on purpose.

Kicked him out (taking the left side from me was only one item of his long list of high crimes). I've scooted over to the left side of a full size, and my cat has taken over the right, and my dog (Maltese-Poodle) is at the foot of the left, so I end up caddy corner with my head in the left and my feet in the right.

The one time I slept with the boyfriend, we settled into him on the right and me on the left, not a word said about preference. Although I did spend the night cuddled against him. His Chihuahua tried pushing both of us off the queen bed.

M and I switch every so often. Right now I'm sleeping against the wall, but eventually, he'll claim my side's more comfortable and start sleeping there himself.

I have a twin bed, so I take the middle. When I was with my ex, he would sleep in the middle and leave me no room at all. So even with a twin bed, I got more room than I used to have.

I always get confused when people ask or when I'm trying to tell people which side, because I'm like, do they mean when you're in bed or when you're looking at the bed. So I went from when I'm in bed. I'm on the left, and hubby's on the right. Anytime he's not home at night though, I take his side.

I choose "it varies", because when I'm at my house it is where ever I land, but It the BF's I sleep on the left side, which is against the wall and he is a bed hog. lol

I'm in a twin bed, but when I'm at my partner's place I'm usually on the right side, which is near the wall.

We vary. I sleep on the side closest to the bathroom. This is because I get up at least once a night and it's easier for me to just stumble directly into our bathroom rather than having to walk around the room and inevitably stub my toe on something. Right now that means I sleep on the left side of the bed, but over the years it's also been the right...

Varies - I sleep in different places all ofter the week, so I choose the side facing away from the window and the morning light

I sleep on the left side. I always seem to sleep on the "inside" of the bed. It would have made more sense for me to sleep on the "outside" because I was the one to get up with babies years ago, but for some reason I think we both feel more safe with him on the outside.

I have about a foot and a half between my side of the bed and the closet door. It's fine for me, because I am really little and I fit there. My Man doesn't even fit when he tries to get off the bed on that side. I have a little table nightstand for my clock, and some pens and stuff, and I put some books and our Wahl massager in a bag under the table. It just fits between the bed and the mirror closet door. But, I'm closer to the bathroom!

If for some reason, we end up on opposite sides of the bed, I can't sleep. I usually wake him up and get him to move.

It depends on the room, and where the walls/windows are.

I roll around the bed at night, and my partner finds it difficult when she sleeps with me haha.

Right now, I have a twin. But, if I had a large bed, I would probably start on one side and then end up on the other.

I have a king. I sleep on the right but being even in the middle it is so big you dont really notice. I start on the right because that is the side my night stand and alarm are.

Left side.

It's cause it's the side that is closest to the door, and I'm the one who gets up with the kids at night...so it just made the most sense.

When my boyfriend and I are together, home or away, I sleep on the left side (left while looking at the bed, right when you're in it). But on nights we're apart, I sleep wherever I can get comfy

We only have a double and if it was up to me I'd hog the whole bed. It's a much better improvement from the single bed we were sharing last year though! I guess what side of the bed I'm on depends which end my head ends up :p We pretty much sleep where we fall.

I sleep on the left and Hubby on the right in this house. Hubby claims which ever side has easy access to the door so he can defend us should it be necessary. Funny the kids crying and walking around to my side of the bed never seem to wake him up lol When he isn't in the bed (he goes to work at 4am) I take over the whole bed. We have a King size bed one would think my side would be plenty but nah I want it all

I'm currently sleeping on a single bed. There really isn't much room on it but I tend to sleep a little bit more towards the right. My stuffed animals have claimed part of the bed.

I put "it varies" because we move the furniture around sometimes and hubby always insists on sleeping on the side closest to the door. He says its for protection if anyone were to invade our home.

Do you mean when you're in bed or when you're looking at the bed? LOL When looking at the bed, I'm on the left side but when we are in bed I'm on the right side. When Husband isn't home I sleep in the middle.
