It's nice that you like being that close to each other still. When I sleep with my husband we snuggle for just a little bit, spooning, until we're ready to sleep, and then one of us moves away. We like our space too.

RockRose, I'm the same exact way! There's a time for cuddling and a time for sleep! When I'm ready to sleep I don't want anyone or anything touching me! lol

Ugh!   The true joy of a king sized bed is that you don't have to touch each other all night long unless you are trying to.  I'm not trying to sound cold,  I just can't go to sleep if anyone is touching me,  including my dog.  So my dog,  and my husband,  and I sleep in the same bed and I am able to accomplish not being touched all night long - unless we want to.

Woohoo,  works great for me.   Even if our hands,  or feet,  are touching by an inch,  I can't sleep.  It's like touch electrifies me - as if I'm holding a live wire.

Reality kills romance.

A: You're suffocating me!!!

B: Ugh, move away, it's like sleeping next to a furnace!!

C: Yipes! You're feet are frigid!

D:  Stop breathing on my neck!

E:  That's it, I have to move over. I keep breathing your hair in.

F:  OUCH!!! When was the last time you cut your TOENAILS?!?!

G: Stop kicking me!!!

H: Oh God, between you and the cats the weight is to much!

I:  Wait... have you been eating chips in bed?!?! Again!!!

J: YOU spilled the tea... YOU get to sleep on the wet spot.

These are just a short list of the complaints you'll come across after long years of marriage.

Have a good, romantic night's sleep. :->

Nessie don't despair. We are all different. I have been with my husband for 30 years. We always go to sleep snuggled together. It is natural that one or both of you will move in your sleep. However when either of us wake we immediately snuggle to the other. We awake in the morning snuggled with one another about 90% of the time. I think it came from the very beginning of our relationship just wanting to be close and it has just continued. In time you will get use to being snuggled to him and you will spend most of your night that way..... If he is the "one." My husband and I no longer can sleep without one another. Yet he is and I was till June independent professionals out of the bedroom. Separate professions, checkbooks and vehicles....Go figure!!

I too like snuggling for a while when first getting into bed (if we go to bed at the same time), but like my own space when I'm ready to fall asleep. Maybe you can try rolling a blanket tight around both of you before getting into bed :)

I hate when boyfriends do that-feels like I'm in prison and feels suffocating!!  Had one bf that would get his feelings hurt ALL the time because I hated it so much.

Sorry, that you guys can't stay glued together all night.  We unconsciously move and change positions while we're still asleep.  Everyone changes positions while they are still asleep.

Second thought, you might consider a twin size bed!

Isn't sleeping in the same bed close enough?

Sorry, I can't help you. I can't stand being snuggled. I need my space!
