    I can never go to sleep at night unless I sleep on the left hand side of the bed. It just feels so unnatural. I also find that I always end up on the left hand side of the bed when I wake up in the morning as well. So what side of the bed do you sleep on?

    I never had a preference really. I usually just slept in the middle of the bed. I think my girlfriend prefers the left side, so I'm usually ****ed over to the right when I'm sleeping with her.

    Always have to be on the side close to the door.

    Left. Although I prefer the right side. Marriage \0/.

    Nearest the door, I feel kind of closed in otherwise.

    My bed is against the wall. I usually relax by lyin on me back, then sleep on my side, on the left side, with me back against the wall

    In the middle too

    Next to the wall. If there's no wall, I think I go for the side closest the door.

    Right hand side in my own bed, side furthest from door in strange bed. Dont ask!

    Double bed all for me (\0/), so diagonally/ middle but my head tends to be on the left pillows. When sharing, always the left, nearest the door ;)

    then consider my previous post mirrored and woo!

    the poll is pretty divided, handy when half the world shares a bed w/ the othr

    Single bed, in the middle, with somebody in a double bed, closest to the door as I worry...
    On my own, I think on the right.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,588 ✭✭✭deisemum


    Closest to the door which has usually been the left side


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,089 ✭✭✭fuzzywiggle


    Left hand side. Always. Boyfriend tries to persuade me to switch over but I won't!


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Flukey


    I always sleep on the top side of the bed.:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,505 ✭✭✭irlirishkev


    Wait, How are we defining left and right here?

    Lying in bed facing the ceiling? Standing at the bottom of the bed facing the headboard? If it's the former, then I sleep on the right side of my bed (double). Sometimes stretch out and change position throughout the night, but usually end up on the right again.

    And I've only just noticed, that in strange beds, I always sleep on the side closest the door. Never even occurred to me before!

    Left with my back to the wall, facing/nearest to the door.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 171 ✭✭Dub_Ster


    i sleep eather side or in the middle doesnt really bother me..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,123 ✭✭✭stepbar


    The majority have spoken.... The right hand side of the bed is the most popular side to sleep on. Personally I find that very uncomfortable but everybody to their own side I suppose :D

    I like the left side. When I wake up on the right side; I know I'm in for a world of bollicking for getting soooo-****ing drunk last night!

    Can't believe this is unique tbh! In a nutshell she makes me wake up on the wrong-side of the bed; but only when I strictly deserve it!
