Back in the day when my ex-wife and I were still sleeping in the same bed, we had this thing called ‘Position A’. It was the initial placement of our bodies in order to fall asleep. Me, being on the left side of the bed would lay on my back, stretch out my right arm. My then wife would lie on her left side and move up against me, with her head on my arm. The final movements of this position would be her throwing her right arm and leg over my body and I would then wrap my right arm around her.
I don’t miss her, but I miss that Position A. It always felt warm, intimate, and safe. Utilizing this configuration we were able to sleep comfortably on a twin bed.
What about your favorite sleeping position? Alone or with someone, whatever?
My husband and I lay spoon-style together until we get ready to go to sleep. Then we roll apart and I sleep on my back or side, but we’re usually touching at least a foot or a hand together. In fact, that’s what made these scenes in “The Story of Us” so poignant to me: At the beginning of their marriage, Michelle Pfeiffer’s character and Bruce Willis’ character always went to sleep with their feet touching. Later on, as their marriage deteriorates, they go to sleep not touching. That just broke my heart.
The touching (or not) durring sleeping seems so primal. I find it hard not to keep some contact while in bed, not smothering mind you. Just a little something to keep that connection going.
I can NOT sleep facing somebody… it just makes me feel all claustrophic. Consequently… No matter which side of the bed my g/f is on… I always face the outside of the bed. I have fallen asleep cuddling, but usually after we’ve been, er, active… 
(Side note… now that we’ve gotten a king size… I can perodically sleep facing her, but not right up next to her.)
Woohoo Screeme, 300th post.
Ofcourse that congratulation is a bit self serving, so that I could make my 100th.
