MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
If you are standing at the bottom of the bed facing the pillows which side do yo sleep on?
Left side for me.
blokes sleep nearest the door, that's it.
^^that!
I seem to go on night manoeuvres and explore most of it.
Left side furtherest from the door.
Ok how exactly are we going to escalate this into a full on Barney?
Currently I can't see a way.
Same as Drac
Left. Always have.
I sleep in the top left corner.
left don't know why
Right at home. But interesting point about the door. In the 5 years that me and the mrs have been together we have travelled alot and stayed in many beds and by pure coincidence apart from her parents I have always slept the side closest to the door. Only just noticed that
Anyone who sleeps on the opposite side to me is WRONG and should not be allowed in a bed.
I've done an advanced sleeping course so I think I know a little more than most on here.
Right side. Obvs.
Furthest from the radiator.
That currently doesn't apply, so for some reason the right hand side.
Left side, which gives me control of the window & the radiator.
Phone cradle cable doesn't reach over that side either.
diagonally
Left side and furthest from door. Heathen, I hear you cry! Heavily pregnant wife stole the right side for toilet trips every nanosecond 😀
Left.
There's a huge great empty space on the right. Not sure what it's for.
On the left. On the edge. Finely balanced.
Left furthest from the door.. when the kids wake up in the night I can give Mrs cloudnine a helping foot out towards the door.
Left edge, Mrs Kona TC sleeps in the middle 😆
Dez. 😀
Darcy?
Left. Usually in a three inch gap left by my daughter.
I'm on the right, on the very edge and furthest from the door.
This is the one true way. I can Google some links to prove it if you're stupid enough not to agree.
Nearest the window, furthest from the door. In the current set up, that puts me on the left.
Closest to the door...quickest way to escape her snoring 😉
side furthest from the door, currently thats the left
Go to sleep in middle, over the night cover pretty much all of it left to right.
Left side furthest away from the door,incase an intruder comes in i can use her as a shield while i shout for my mum (who doesn't live with us btw.)
Left for the last 9 years, I prefer the right but she won that early battle. If in a hotel then closest to door, which ever that may be.
Middle, only have a single bed, there is only me in it, and didn't see the point in wasting space in the room with a bigger bed.
Left.
We tried the other way round once and it didn't feel right, so that was that.
Right!
[i]Darcy?[/i]
I dream...I wake.. he's never there... 🙁
same as scotroutes - a tiny little strip on the right hand side nearest the door.
I sleep on the right side, but generally get out of the wrong side.
[i]We tried the other way round once and it didn't feel right, so that was that.[/i]
*s****s childishly*
Top bunk.
When I built the van I stupidly put the bed transversely across it so one person is trapped at the back. Sleeping in the van = drinking beer = wanting a waz at 3 in the morning. This and putting a brew on in the morning I am expected to perform without waking her ladyship up in the favoured forward birth. Think I need to grow a pair!
The wife and I have a simple solution to ensure we each remain on our side of the bed during the night. He's a staffie cross called Bailey who sleeps in the neutral zone (otherwise known as the middle).
Right side normally. But normally whatever space is left is mine. Her ladyship travels round the bed. Pissed on her chips when I had my hinged knee brace on after surgery, the metal and Velcro dug in apperantly.
Right, but I mostly sleep in my study these days; we have a restless baby so I do the weekend shift. Strangely I sleep on the left of the double bed there.
Whichever bit is not occupied by the wife doing her finest starfish impression. Officially the left is my side but in reality i would probably have more room if i got in on the right.
This was my one & only victory when moving in with her indoors. I sleep on the right hand side , or as per the diagram... the right hand side quarter 😳
wherever the cat lets me!
Right side.. But always wakes up in the carpet 😡
The side her arse is on.
I probably shouldn't go into more detail.
Men sleep on the left
Women sleep on the right
Anything else is too wrong for my tiny brain to compute sadly...
Either left, as a starting point, extreme left with the level of extreme dictated by the presence of one or two children, or the middle as I try and diminish "the hump" (the raised area that demarcates the neutral zone between the divots we have formed in the memory foam mattress).
Furthest from the door, closer to radiators and bloody windows. In current set up my man's side is on the left.
If I perform right at night then I reward myself with the right one, feels so much better. Further from windows feels comfier. Maybe I need stamp down my prefference and occupy right side. If she complains, send her to kitchen to do lady jobs, and possibly stay there.
Left side
I think you're all missing a vital bit of detail here:
The left as you lay on your back? Or the left as you lay on your front? Surely it depends on *how* you sleep!
Nearest the door for me too.
Chojin, left and right were defined in the OP.
Closest the door so what the OP describes as left.
I'd say it was actually the right hand side, as when you're sitting up in bed. Could that provide the argument that's missing from this thread?!
Nearest the door, furthest from the duvet.
Her right so the OP's left. This is furthest from the door and so closest to the window.
She sleeps on the right side. I sleep on the wrong side. Wherever we are. Only variation is if there's a wet bit, I get that privilege.

Chojin, left and right were defined in the OP.
So it was. You'll have to forgive me, it was about 4:30am at the time I read it and I was trying to settle a 6 week old!
Home right, Away left.
Facing the bed standing at the bottom? Then right, it's the closest to the window, furthest from the door and radiator.
However it's not always been this way, about 4 years ago we swapped around as we changed the room and now MrsBouy likes sleeping closest to the door (on the left). I guess it's so she can let her farts out sharpish 😆
We used to swop once a year but since the sprog arrived the wife is closest to the door (right).
Right, furthest from the door, closest to the radiator in the new house.
Nearest the door, this is apparently so any burglars who break in will murder me first, whilst the wife helps by shrieking the house down.
Shirly it depends if you're left or right handed... 😯
Where I want to!!
It's my duvet, I will make a nest of it, and yes it possibly is a bit smelly, and yes there may be missing socks and knickers at the end, there may also be the telly remote that's been missing for a bit and a plate, definitely a book
Single? How can you tell? 😆
I sleep on the right. When we first got married that was the side nearest the door but in our current house it's not, but we're too set in our ways to change now.
Left, which is currently nearest the door.
right, which is furthest from the door at home, pretty sure I sleep on the right when we're away, irrespective of where the door is, tho if the bed is against a wall on one side I'll probably sleep on the other.
Always used to be the right (closest to the door), with the left of the bed being against a wall. Since our daughter was born we swapped so the wife cold feed during the night and haven't changed back.
Cheers,
Jamie
Left side,near the door.It is supposed to be the "Man side",is it not?,in case you have an intruder you can leap out a pull some ninja sh1t or suttin....,.I lost my hero nerve in my teens after an old guy very nearly drowned near our house*(we were taught lifesaving in the school pool,we had to pick up a brick off the bottom dressed in pyjamas.Sadly on the fateful day I spotted the old boy in the water and raced home to put on my jim-jams,by the time I returned, someone else had got him out....).GF is far more terrifying anyway,when awoken....
*possibly made-up story.
Right, nearest to the door and furthest from the radiator. In our old flat it was still the right but away from the door and near the radiator (but also the window that let in lots of cold air).
The dry side preferably ......
Which ever side I want. I find if you use one side one night then the other the next night you don't need to change the sheets for a couple of months.
on the left, ever since I broke my right clavicle.
Before that it was on the right, following an serious injury to my left knee.
Both bike-related injuries.
See a pattern?
Even although I have a kingsize all to myself, I still sleep on the top left quarter, nearest the door. Occasionally I venture round the other side of my bed and find the long lost jeans, socks, t shirt etc.
Right, in 17 years I think I've slept on her side of the bed twice. And that includes when I have the bed to myself.
The side that isn't 'hers'*
*There is apparently some logic to this, seemingly involving the size of the moon, time period from the last portion of chocolate consumed by her ladyship and the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow.
Nearest the door, this is apparently so any burglars who break in will murder me first, whilst the wife helps by shrieking the house down.
As per "Men are from Mar, Women are from Venus".
Men as protectors, should sleep closest to the door.
This is ingrained as much as men being hunters and women being nurturers
Any man not sleeping closest top the door is either a big wimp, or his wife has bigger muscles!
Which are you? 😉
