So I'm really big on the after sex cuddling and all. And falling asleep in each others arms. But my girlfriend doesnt usually sleep over very often. But she's been here for the past three nights consecutively, and I'm starting to realize that cuddling is all and well after sex, but for a whole night...it's not exactly practical. It can get kind of uncomfortable, and I find I keep waking up, and sometimes I'll just have to disengage and go sleep in the corner.

How do you guys sleep when you have company? I know some people cant sleep without their space. A buddy of mine said he actually puts a wall of pillows between them after the initial cuddling and it's time for sleep. What about the rest of you?



EDIT: And on a completely unrelated note, (I didnt feel like making a new topic for it), does anyone know how to get dried blood stains out of a mattress?

My husband and I usually sleep with his butt against my stomach and my breasts pressed up against his back. My stomach hurts a lot and for some reason his butt helps.

And no I don't know how to get blood out of a mattress...If only I did. My mattress looks like I slaughtered a cow on it or something!

Coke gets rid of blood stains, I don't know about dried blood though. But then you will have a coke stain. Take it to the dry cleaners a few times.

i have a lot of trouble sleeping with someone else there for the whole night. i sleep on my face and move around a lot. so it really only works if the guy sleeps on his face too, and doesn't move around a lot.

even then, though, i get too turned on knowing he's right there, naked. it makes it hard to sleep.

Blood Stains???!!!!! WHOA!

You know what's really tough? Sleeping in the same bed as your partner and a BABY!

I always find it really hard to go to sleep with my girlfriend when we're cuddling. I usually just curl up in the corner of the bed when I'm ready to go to sleep. It's impossible otherwise.

As for the blood, I'm not sure, I have the same problem...

I usually just turn my butt in her direction and let off a few nasty stinkin' ones... They give me release, and work to knock her out, cold.

Wow, I guess the girlfriend problem got to you...





You must really like your sleep.

I don't get much sleeping done when a girl is in bed with me.

Haha I'm hard to sleep with. For one I don't really sleep very much without sleeping pills so if my girl falls asleep ill just watch tv or something and cuddle with her. Also when I do finally fall asleep I move around a lot becuase I get uncomfortable really quick in the same position. I've been told I also try to make conversation in my sleep. Though when I take my pill I'm completly normal when I sleep and am fine to sleep with.

I find the easist way for me is when shes finally asleep ill just adjust her body to where her arms and everything is in a comfortable cuddling postion for me to sleep in. So since shes already asleep it doesnt affect her or anything. But usually ill wake up a couple times in the night when I have slept over. Sometimes we just ahve to sleep without the cuddling. Another good way is spooning except sometimes I move around a lot so depending on my mood it doesnt work. But easist way to sleep is let her fall asleep and then just adjust her to make me comfortable, since she doesnt wake up or anything.

Usually I do the "mandatory" post-sex cuddling, for however long seems appropriate, and then I just roll over and go to sleep. Occasionally I'll wake up in the middle of the night and roll over and do more cuddling, but that's all dependent on how sleepy I am.

When my girlfriend and i nap together we manage to sleep holding each other, usually with someones head on the other persons chest and an arm around them. However to get a full nights sleep we usually end up just sticking to our own sides of the bed and sleeping however we want. Get a bigger bed, i have a queen and it's very spacious with just two people in it.

Oh and the blood, i've tried that tide pen thing and it kind of worked, or theres somekind of carpet cleaner that i've used before too, but you never really get out all the residual stain. Sorry

I tried that, the clorox bleach pens. It's fucking bleach...you'd think it would work on anything. But it doesnt :\

I couldn't read all of this. I live with my girlfriend, and have for the past few years. It's come to us using different blankets because she is a freakin cover hog! In the middle of winter one night before we started out seperate covers thing, she yanked em off me and I couldn't get them back off her. She was all rolled up in them like a cigar. So, yeah, now we sleep in seperate blankets.

After sex, we don't cuddle really because she likes to go wash up.

The best thing is to spoon. Thats the cumfiest position.

well for me and my boyfirend after sex we cuddle and just ly there listenig to eachothers breathing and stuff and then eventually we will just get tired and roll away to sleep how ever we want...but of course there is sometimes in the middle of the night we'll just start to cuddle again until we have to wake up..

That happened to my grandmother...She was up one night trying to get my mother to sleep, and my grandmother dozed off and started smothering my mother. She said she saw the ghost of...one of her relatives, I cant remember which, that came to her in the dream world and told her that her child was in danger or whatever.

She slept with us every night until she was 7 months old and yet somehow she survived. Babies want to sleep with their mother...All mammal babies do it, so why not humans?

I can sleep anywhere on anything. I don't need a whole lot of sleep to run, so I don't much care.

I liked having my own little blanket. I'd just leave the big one to her for rolling and twisting and whatnot. It just made it easier.

Edit: I like looking over and waking up next to a girl, peferably one that I care about. I don't much care about the sleep.

You are the perfect male specimen

If I were you, I'd just flip the mattress over....you're supposed to "turn" it occasionally anyway. Of course, if you already did this for another stain, it won't help.

Ever wonder why hotel mattresses last FOREVER? It's because with different people sleeping on it all the time, it doesn't wear only in a few select places.

i like spooning cause it's so warm and i like that safe feeling (plus he can grope me). but sometimes it's awkward trying to get our arms in comfy places and my hair not in his face and whatnot. and i have a tendency to curl up in my sleep, and he has a tendency to try to use me as a leg pillow. so usually we just end up next to each other with his arm around me or his legs tucked around me. his bed's small so as long as we're touching in some way i'm happy.

-sigh- I already did the last time she was over :\

Now I've got a huge stain in the middle of both sides.

Actually that kind of sounds like how it is with me and my girlfriend almost exactly. Except when she falls asleep sometimes I will adjust her so its more comfortable. And its her bed/floor not mine.

once she conks off, *pushes gal off bed*

gg i need my beauty sleep.

me too!

also peroxide works well with taking blood out.

The only girl I've slept with on many occaisions is totally retarded.

Takes up 3/4 of the bed, so when I get close and spoon with her, she got annoyed because she 'needed her space'. So then when I turn around to go to sleep (the side I sleep on means I face away from her), she gets all weird and super clingy. Even in her fucking sleep she does it!

Basically I hate sleeping with chicks. I often wake up in the middle of the night, have a few brews, go for a drive, smoke weed, what ever, but I hardly sleep.

Yes, there must be the mandatory cuddle session after sex, but once sleep really starts hittin' in, I gotta get to my own part of the bed. The last girl I dated was the same way, plus she could only sleep with ear plugs in, so it worked out nicely. A couple of neurotic teenagers...

quote:Originally posted by activepsycho:

How do you figure that?

Sometimes after sex, I'm too fucked for even a cuddle session. I just kind of pass out into a deep slumber. You know when you run marathons, and your mouth becomes dry, and it becomes hard to spit because your spits that thick? Well, same shit happens when you fuck for long enough.

At the end, you SERIOUSLY can't be fucked cuddling. Breathing is your first prioroty.

Spooning is much fun.

I can fall asleep anywhere. So it doesn't really matter to me, but I'd prefer to be touching the person. Waking up next to them is the best part though.

That doesn't make you tough! It just means you need sleep.

Ahh... that sucks. Hang on, how often does she bleed? What the hell are you doing to the girl?

This is why I have a mattress protecter. Just chuck it in the wash the next morning on cold (warm water doesn't get blood out).

As for sleeping, I either lie on my back, with her head resting on my shoulder area and my arm around her body; or spooning, with both arms around her.

My girlfriend ALWAYS rolls onto her left side when she sleeps, even if she falls asleep with her head on my chest. Really useful, 'cause i can only sleep on my back, so once we both fall asleep, she can roll over and i'll follow her in my sleep and not wake. Something like this:

Actually, i got dried blood out of my carpet using a mix of bleach and a generic brand of dishwashing liquid. Might work for you?

Its nothing perverse...she just has a heavy flow. The first time, I learned that we shouldnt have sex during her period anymore. This time, it caught her off guard in her sleep.

pedo!

my boyfriend and i used to have no problem sleeping together on my full size bed. but at college there are only twins, and that is kind of a pain in the ass. i usually curl up against the wall and give him most of the room, but i end up wakeing up sore. and when we sleep totgether now we each use a different blanket. the twin size ones are just too small to share.

My boyfriend and I fall asleep together most of the time, and then when I wake, we're usually on separate sides of the bed. I have the same problem as oral fixation though, with the tiny bed in my dorm.

quote:Originally posted by SilentMind:

Yeah, it really shits you up the wall when they pounce out at you like that. You're just lying there peacefully asleep, then POW! Blood everywhere.

Anyway, as for the twin size bed thing, what the hell is a twin size bed? I mean, I've heard of single, double, queen, king and super king, but twin? At first I thought you meant twin as in a double, but unless you're morbidly obese, then that can't be the case. Considering that my double is only about a foot different from a queen, what's a twin similar to?

It must be different in australia...

Here we have twin, full, queen, and king.

Twin is probably the equivalent to your single. Think the size of bunkbeds.

I only spent one night in a dorm bed, and it was uncomfortable as all hell. Never again.

Why the hell would anyone refer to a bed that sleeps one person as a twin?

But yes, I know what you're saying. It's a pain in the arse and someone has to lie against the cold wall, or fall out of bed.

I've never really had a problem with it.. the I sleep on my back.. and normally don't move much in my sleep.. so, after gettin busy she cuddles up to me. I put my arm around her.. my arm becomes a pillow for her. and boom, I'm basicly a body pillow for the night.

Only problem I've had with that is when they sleep like that and kick a leg over one of my legs is getting grinded on in their sleep. It's hard to sleep when someone you find VERY sexy is humping your leg.

I normally jsut prop two pillows behind me, one a little lower than the other so Im somewhat leaning on the wall, but totally comfortable. and for some odd reason, every girl Ive slept with, even my close friends, have all turned on their sides, put one arm across my chest,and laid their head on my heart,and Id wrap my arm around them, hold them close and we'd sleep throught the night.

Im actually an Insomniac, I often go days with little to no sleep,and when i do sleep Im a VERY light sleeper, but when I sleep with a girl I love, I get good,deep, undisturbed sleep.

quote:Originally posted by another pint:

Because theres usually two beds in the set. Like bunk beds.

Pretty much all the nights I've spent with my gf (except two actually) were in a twin/single bed.

It IS hard to sleep in it when you're two, but after a week or two, you get used to it. Well, as long as you don't need to much sleep...

Used to spend the next at the ex bf's house a lot.

We'd usually just cuddle until right before we nodded off, then we'd roll into comfortable positions.

Unless it was cold then we cuddled until I fell asleep, then he would do whatever. :-P
