Bed Side Preference and Dominance

bright_arrow · 01-02-2015, 04:03 PM

I sleep on my right side, so bed preference isn't really that big of a deal as long as I can sleep on my right side and still get cuddled! Occasionally I will sleep on my left side but it's rare and most often when I am not feeling well.

When I get home tonight I'm going to sleep on the other side, kind of like an experiment of sorts, I want to see if my Dominant self is affected, or if I sleep better, or dream more.

I'll let y'all know how that goes later on..

I am most definitely NOT the dominant partner in a relationship, but I AM left handed. I choose to sleep facing the wall...actually with my head touching the wall (typically on my left side but right side of bed)...on a side note, I am the only one in my bed, and I find it rather comforting to sleep diagonally (top right corner to bottom left corner, although I really don't take up much room)
*hope I've not confused the planet*

I'm still Dominant, still slept well and feel no different, tonight I'm flipping and sleeping with my feet towards the headboard and will allow the bed to be occupied!

See y'all tomorrow!

What an interesting thread. Isn't it intriquing to read someone's thoughts and think...what in the world? It makes ya think though.

I'm still a little unclear which is the right side or which is the left. Is it facing the bed or in the bed? I believe this was asked but the only answer i could find was a reference to right handed people sleep on the right (if dominate). I didn't quote that because that wasn't the exact words.

So, I'm thinking it is the right and left while actually in the bed. So, in that case, i would be a lefty. Which, if the theory is even partially correct, would correlate with me being a submissive. And, now that i think about it, ive had a left handed partner that indeed slept on the left and i was on the right. So, i'm thinking the hypothesis would be pretty true for me.

And actually it is more about left/right than about the door. The door could be anywhere, still the same on the side of the bed that i sleep on.

Very interesting.

Leave it to me to be a normal statistic.

When partnered, I have to sleep on the side which puts me between her and the bedroom door. The reason is because if an intruder breaks in, I feel I am better positioned to protect her and get "at" the intruder faster. I have always had a very protective nature. It's my job.

Generally when single, I am sprawled all over and just try not to mash a dog. Lately, I am doing good to crawl in between dogs and hope I can stake out enough wiggle room for myself. Jennifer (pocket - pittie) doesn't take up much real estate but Kevin (100+ lbs. mastiff-bully mix) likes the middle half of the bed.

I have often thought about getting him his own twin-size bed.

To clarify, I was working on the basis of being in the bed. Personally I find it more fun that way than standing looking at it.

So yes, anyway, the right from the perspective of lying in the bed with your head on the pillow.
