What do you miss...........

11 Jun 2006

Recently due to Ians promotion at work he has been going away a bit more than he used to.
In the past I have had no problem sleeping but more recently I've not been sleeping so well. I started to think what am I missing, the constant snore, the comfort of knowing he is there or someone to warm the bed for me confused

What do you miss when you sleep alone dunno

11 Jun 2006

well, there is the lonely feeling but on the upside one can spread out, relax etc. My current partner and myself often decamp into the other room somtimes. its nice to be alone for a while we think, and makes being together again all that more nicer !

You get used to it.
The thing I miss most is the Sunday morning lie in when you just don't want to get out of bed. Sleeping alone isn't so bad, waking up alone is shitty.

I miss the smell I think.
Timmy does a lot of night shifts and I find if I wear a t shirt or shirt he's had on to bed, or have it next to me if it's too warm, then I sleep loads better. :thumbup:

The question there gives no indication as to if its directed at men women or couples and to me at least seems a question than can be answered by anyone.. :dunno:

what do i miss?..................well, since we have been living together we havent been apart at night at all, ,,,,but i can remember when he wasnt living with me and i missed the all night snuggly cuddles and breathing his breath in when his face was so close to mine and the little kisses on my back while he was asleep , that he didnt even remember doing and still doesnt when he does it now ...... the tangle of legs in the middle of the night....... the little groans of satisfaction when i came back from the loo and he would wrap his arms around me tightly while making those little kind of groaning noises...... waking up looking at his face lying next to me on the pillow and smiling to myself........him waking up and catching me looking at him and smiling back......the morning cuddles.................................oh shit...i could never sleep without staggy again..i just wouldnt sleep..i have a teddy called staggy that i used to cuddle when he wasnt around. i dont need it now though. but in its time it was very useful biggrin

:lol: :lol: ... he still does all these things and more. ive been living with him for just over a year now and i hope it never stops...

Wonders if RWL has been eating too much red meat??? Or more obviously, not getting a shag because he has far too much testosterone in his body??? rotflmao

I know what he means though, missing someone who's not there for a night or two is different to having a permanently empty bed, especially if there used to be someone in the other side for a while. I used to quite like the occasional night alone, made me appreciate him more when he came back. Now I have no reason to linger in bed in the mornings, or have an early night.

Er.......... RWL did you read what I wrote?
Did I ask for sympathy? Nope rolleyes

It makes no difference whether you are in a relationship or not. I wasn't directing my question at any specific status, I just explained what made me think of the question initially.
Nothing to do with love or trust and there is no problem :?

It has nothing to do with insecurity (unless you are trying to imply something?).
Most people will have some form of routine when they go to bed. You know kick the cat out, fart, clean teeth, fart, put teeth in a glass, and all those other things.
I didn't know Dawn had put this thread up (jeez she post's so many I could never keep up).
But I read the thread as a
"when your sleep routine is broken, kind of thread".
Going on that slant, anybody could have added to it should they wish.

I miss the warmth of lying close, the cuddling just before you go to sleep spooning the smell of her body the chatting late into the night.
On the other hand I do get to sleep on whichever side of the bed I like I donâ€™t have to fight for the covers.
But waking up with no one can be shit!

12 Jun 2006

I don't miss anything on the nights I sleep alone! :shock:
I actually like having the bed to myself. I sleep better that way. Its good for a few nights at a time anyway!
But I must admit, I wouldn't want it like that all the time........my feet would get cold in the winter without the Laird to warm them lol

and I like someone there if I have a nightmare or hear a bump in the night :scared:

I'm used to sleeping alone and I love it - love being able to snuggle under the covers or stretch out or fall asleep with books all over the bed and not have anyone complain!
I do love the occasional treat of sleeping with someone else, though. Especially if they're a cuddler... I love falling asleep with someone's breath on the back of my neck and their arm around my waist, and I love that kind of slow awakening you get when there are two of you. On my own I go from asleep to awake pretty much instantly, but when you wake up with someone else you kind of wake each other up by stirring gently - I like that. smile

I like having someone to say 'good morning' to. I like morning sex.
When I was living with my ex I used to find it really hard to get to sleep when he was away. Until we started the gradual process of splitting up, that is... once we finally broke up it was a total relief to be sleeping on my own again, and not lying there wide awake next to him, seething and analysing! lol

In conclusion, I think I'd rather sleep with someone I like than alone, but I'd rather sleep alone than with someone I don't like :lol:

hi babes,
if b wasnt in bed every night with me l just wouldnt sleep even tho he can be a pain with his constant tossing and turning, snoring, talking, and laughing its like my wee comfort blankie, in all the 20 odd yrs we have been together there has only been about 10 days we havent been in bed together 7 of which was when l was in hospital having the kids and the rest was when he was away and l didnt sleep a wink until he got home. guess your gonna have to spend more time online at night and sleep during the day lmao
love loads xxxx

I have trouble sleeping when I'm alone :cry: but as for what I miss, Pretty much everything, from falling asleep and waking up in someones arms the first kiss of the morning biggrin

Even things like having to battle for the duvet or having someone to make a morning drink for give me a certain enjoyment. :D

12 Jun 2006

If Steve goes away for a weekend I miss the last cuddle at night... The one where I turn over and he snuggles up behind me....
Very often I will stay up till the kids are getting up before I go to bed so that I am so tired I just fall into bed sad

12 Jun 2006

Sleeping alone allows my mind to tell me all the things I've done wrong - bad news!
I need a good woman to keep me brain occupied!
