SingleGAF, do you get fed up of sleeping alone?

I spent so much time alone in my life that I'm just used to it. It's really tiring for me having people around, expecially when I'm at home I need to be alone. Sometimes it gets lonely but it doesn't last long!
 
I love sleeping next to someone, cuddle/fuck buddy or not. I've had friends (of the same and opposite genders) come over and eventually sleep in my bed, and even if there's no cuddling, sleeping next to someone is oddly comforting. I do miss it!
 
Every night I stare at the empty spot in my bed, memories of the women and men who've slept there sometimes for one night, some of them multiple nights.

But it's the one that never slept in my bed that still gets at me. The one who I could never call my own for the night. They are what I've wanted and have been looking for.




so yea... I get a bit fed up.
 
I actually kinda like it, as little as I've ever done it. Bed hoggers fucking suck, but........I dunno, I guess it's just kind of psychologically comforting or something.
 
Cuddling in bed is fun, but the actual act of sleeping with someone sucks. Past girlfriends, and my current one, toss and turn, waking my ass up multiple times a night. I simply get no rest when I sleep with my gf. I hate it. But, I guess the company and sex is worth it.
 
it's totally a grass/greener thing. sleeping alone sucks when you don't have the option not to (especially in winter), but when i'm seeing someone i'll want a night to myself after three or four in a row. healthy balance.
 
After just getting out of a 2 year relationship I would put sleep alone in the positive column, for sure. So much room and there isn't another human being who feels the urge to be right on top of you even when you scooch away. I hated waking up and being smooched to 1/4th of the bed. I sleep better now, for sure.
 
Separated pending a divorce after 11 years and 2 kids.

I miss the sex and cuddling. I miss company. Sometimes I'm reminded of that scene in Max Payne 2 where
you find out he calls phone sex lines just to have somebody to talk to.

But when I break it down at the end of the day the only true loss is only seeing the kids on the weekends. Not having the constant fighting and pain of infidelity is worth it's motherfucking weight in GOLD.
 
Nope, I don't like sleeping with a partner. In fact if I marry one day, I would like us to each have our own bed. Not out of conservative values, I just need my own space when I'm trying to fall asleep.
 
Hell no. When my girlfriend gets sleepy she turns into a fucking furnace for some reason. When we first got together I would wake up drenched in sweat. In winter it's nice but in summer that shit is unbearable.
 
quite a few moments of waking up convinced I was sleeping with my GF, even reaching my arm sometimes

been a bit over 3 months now since I was dumped from a 5 year relationship. It sucks but it does get better with time

sleeping alone obviously has huge advantages on it's own, man
 
I felt the same way after my break up a couple months ago. You get over it. I felt like that for like three months.

Time fixes everything dude.
 
to everyone here who has been in a relationship? what's it like? other than the company and sex, you have to deal with 99 problems other than your own.

Only thing that fucks with me is excessive snoring. Both of my bfs have had this issue though so in a way I'm used to it despite being annoyed. I just shove them and tell them to roll over.
 
Not really, I can still see and or keep my kids almost whenever I feel like. Also I get hit on most of the time at the mall so if I really wanted someone I'd just go to a concert,bar,mall,etc.

Now I'm not saying i'm hugh jackman hot but I think I look alright, or most people at least seem to think so.

EDIT:Being Bi also helps..a lot.
 
I fucking loved sleeping with my ex. We went to school together and slept in a twin bed probably 3 or 4 nights a week, and I didn't care. Novelty wore off but it was still my favorite way to sleep.
 
I didn't mind at all when I was single. Now I have a long distance gf and it kinda sucks.

That said it is great to be able to wiggle around however you want. If we ever move in together we have to get a big mattress.
 
you know whats fucked up? fighting because you dont spoon them while you sleep, dammit i also want my space!

also GF gets really mad when somebody wakes her up. no kidding when i say that she got angry when i woke her up for her med final exams.

tho i think the solution for this is just getting a custom sized bed and having our own blankets.
 
Sleeping alone is the best feeling ever. Are you kidding me?

No snoring
no cover/sheet stealing
no extra body heat when it's too hot
no pillow stealing
no getting pushed into the corner of the bed
no weird feeling where you come to bed late and you're trying not to wake anyone up.

I also hate when the person I'm sleeping with falls asleep before me. I can't fall asleep that fast, so it's just awkward hearing them sleeping and me not being able to get to sleep.


Sleep alone when you can.
 
If you added up all the time I had a GF, it would be about 3 months.

But I did have a cat for 16 years that would sleep next to me. I'd go to bed, she'd jump on it, slowly creep up to my face to see if I was alive (or whatever reason cats do that), then go back down to my hip and curl up next to me.

When she died, it was pretty weird, because I was so used to her. I actually had a harder time falling asleep.
 
No way. It's the absolute best part of breaking up. It cheers me up immensely. The pressure to sleep in the same bed (and obviously, then get no sleep at all) wrecks havoc on my life whenever I would stay over at my g/fs. I'd rather sleep on the fucking floor than in the same bed as someone, but alas, peoples feelings.
 
I'm miserable sleeping alone. If you got a big bed you can pretty much sleep apart through the night, but cuddle a bit before sleep and after waking up is pretty much the best thing ever. And I find it very comforting knowing I have someone I love right beside me even if we don't cuddle.
