Which Way do you Spoon?

I was so cold once, my wife had to check if I was still breathing… (not making that up)

If there was no extenuating circumstances, ask the doctor for a thyroid test next time you go in, ok? (I am so not a doctor, but that just don’t sound right.)

Male here- I’m usually the back spoon, but we don’t sleep that way. In fact, neither of us can sleep while touching the other person; we each stay on our own sides of the bed to sleep, thankyouverymuch. …

Oh, that’s soooo my husband and me. I’m a rather warm person and Mr. Serenata gets too hot if I’m on him. Plus, I like to sleep on my stomach (ish) and it doesn’t allow for much cuddling. Sometimes if one of us is particularly cranky, we even get ticked at the other person for being on the “wrong side” of the bed. One of us is trying to be sweet and cuddly… and the other is cranky and pissy and moaning “get away from me!!”

I enjoy both . . . making me bispoonial.

Female and I prefer to hold him, so I’m the back spoon, though to actually sleep I usually move away to my side of the bed.

Um…do I really need to draw a picture? With the female as the front spoon, the male can wrap a hand around the interesting things on a female’s front, while the male’s interesting bits are snuggled nicely against or between the comfy bits on the female’s backside, where she can be instantly made aware of any changes in the state of readiness of said bit. Plus he can throw his leg over (you always wondered where that phrase came from, didn’t you?) and kind of pull her close, while nibbling on her neck.

God, I miss spooning!

(Male) It’s like you’re reading my mind. Also, is there anything hotter than falling asleep in that position, then some time, during the night, things come to a slow simmer and then you go for another round?

I don’t really like to be touched when I’m trying to fall asleep. It takes so much effort already.
