Here’s my thread from a couple of years ago about sleeping with your mobile phone in the bed.

As a spin-off from the alarm clock thread, I thought I’d see how I unique I am since I not only always have my iPhone in bed, I also have my iPad in bed with me and I’m using one or both devices until I fall asleep I’m single, as you may have guessed! If I do have a FWB in bed with me overnight, the iPad usually goes on a nightstand but I’ll always have the phone next to me once it’s time for sleep …

Temperature is anything comfortable. I’ve got a friend who has stayed over a few times but he puts the apartment into absolute deep freeze. Drives me crazy and I end up having to put on a hoodie.

I have to wear some clothes to sleep in, maybe it’s all the years of having roommates or family that didn’t respect privacy.

I prefer flannel sheets and usually use them mid-September until May.

I will always listen or watch something before bedtime. I don’t have a TV in the bedroom because I have the iPad. Occasionally I’ll steam music and read before bed as well.
