So, I just got back to my hotel room in London after a day of too much tea and even more walking. My boyfriend and I are here on vacation, soaking up all the British vibes, and let me tell you, traveling together teaches you a lot about your relationship. You know what else does? Sleeping. (No, not that kind of sleeping—though that’s fun, too. 😉)
I’m talking about the quiet moments when you’re all tangled up, drooling on each other’s pillows, and figuring out whose leg just fell asleep. Believe it or not, the way you sleep together says a lot about your connection—and can even strengthen it! After a few hilariously awkward and surprisingly cozy experiments, I’ve narrowed it down to three positions that actually work to build a stronger bond. Let’s dive in.
1. The “Koala Cling”
Alright, this one’s for all the cuddly souls out there (or anyone who just likes stealing body heat). Picture this: your boyfriend is lying on his back, and you’re basically draped over him like a human blanket. One leg over his, your arm across his chest, and your head nestled somewhere between his shoulder and neck.
It’s intimate, comforting, and oddly feels like you’re marking your territory (in the cutest way possible). Plus, you can feel his heartbeat—how romantic is that? 🥰
Last night, I tried this after we got back from the Tower of London (highly recommend, by the way), and while he was initially like, “Babe, can I breathe?”—he eventually relaxed into it. The best part? I fell asleep within minutes. Something about the steady rhythm of his breathing just… worked.
Pro tip: Make sure the air conditioning is on; otherwise, things get real sweaty real fast.
2. Back-to-Back, Butt-to-Butt
Okay, hear me out: this position is criminally underrated. You’re facing away from each other, but your backs (and, more importantly, your butts) are touching. It’s like saying, “I love you, but also, I need my space.”
We ended up in this position by accident—after a tiny argument over which side of the bed had the better view of the TV (spoiler: neither, because the TV here is weirdly tiny). But here’s the thing: even though you’re not wrapped up in each other, there’s still this subtle connection that says, “I’ve got you.”
I swear, it’s like your bodies are syncing up without the need for full-on snuggle mode. Plus, it’s great for those of us who like a little freedom to flail around without kicking someone in the ribs. 😅
Bonus points if you wiggle your toes against his to say goodnight. It’s weirdly cute and makes you feel like penguins in love.
3. The “Half-Spooning” Situation
Ah, the classic spoon with a twist. This one’s perfect if one of you is a cuddler and the other is more of a “don’t-touch-me-I’m-hot” sleeper (me, I’m the latter). In this setup, he’s the big spoon, but instead of a full-on bear hug, his arm just rests lightly around your waist. Your legs can stay intertwined—or not, depending on how much room you both need.
This position feels like the ultimate compromise: close enough to feel connected but not so close that you’re smothered. It also works wonders for late-night conversations. Last night, we stayed up way too late whispering about the weirdly large ravens we saw at the Tower (seriously, why are they so huge?!), and before I knew it, I was fast asleep.
Pro tip: If your boyfriend has a scratchy beard, maybe throw a pillow between his chin and your shoulder to avoid waking up looking like you’ve been attacked by sandpaper.
Why These Positions Matter
You might be thinking, “Okay, but how does sleeping like this actually help my relationship?” Glad you asked, bestie.
The truth is, the way you sleep reflects your emotional vibe as a couple. Positions like these force you to find that balance between intimacy and independence—something every relationship needs. Whether you’re cuddling like koalas or just touching toes, the key is the connection.
Also, let’s be real: there’s something undeniably sexy about waking up next to someone you love, even if they’re snoring loud enough to scare the pigeons outside your window.
So, there you have it—three sleeping positions that’ll bring you and your boyfriend closer than ever. Try them out, experiment a little, and let me know which one’s your favorite. Just don’t blame me if you wake up drooling on his chest—it happens to the best of us.
Alright, time to crash. Tomorrow’s itinerary? More tea, maybe some scones, and definitely figuring out why British plugs are so unnecessarily confusing.
Sweet dreams, friends. And remember: whether you’re spooning or starfishing, it’s all love. ❤️
