Absolutely.

And he should warm your side of the bed before you get in.

There's a Law about it somewhere, I'm sure.

Funnily enough my dh gets abit aggrieved by me warming my icy feet on him. Caused many an argument. Must be a common problem.

This is how it goes: DH gets into bed on my side to warm it up. He scoots over, I jump in. He turns on his side facing away from me and bends his legs. I tuck my feet into the crook of his knees and he bends his legs more to snuggle them in securely.

Result: toasty toes Grin

You need to offer to trade - your cooling hand on his oh so overheated forehead early evening in front of the tv in return for him warming your feet later on in bed Grin

Not at all I have the same problem with my DH complaining about my cold iceberg feet.

Shodan I am going to show DH your post. He hates having cold feet anywhere near him and I am constantly telling him other men do it. Now I have concrete evidence. Thanks

OP definitely NBU, although I fear you are going to have a battle on your hands.

ISn't this in the booklet guys get when they get married, "thou shalt warm her feet?"

I pretty much knew DP was the man for me when I crawled into bed late one night.

I was freezing, he was asleep.

When I accidentally made contact with him, in his slumber, I expected him to recoil.

Instead he wrapped his sleeping form around me, defrosting my icy core in seconds and wrapping my icy trotters in a cocoon of steaming ManFeet.

Reader, I married him. Wink

As someone who has a husband with iceberg feet, the best way to get a warm up is get them to come your way for a cuddle rather than you go to them. That way when he overheats he can roll away from u and back to a cold side of bed.

I didn't get my way last night Hmm

But love the stories of men warming their women's cold feet. Something very gallant about it all Smile

The only trouble is, of course, that on hot summer nights (or peri-menopausal ones), DH is about as welcome as a hot water bottle. So he gets prodded and moaned at for being 'like a bloody furnace' and occasionally sent downstairs.

Some women are never happy Grin

YABVU. Get yourself one of those giant tartan wool-lined slipper things and stop being annoying. He has a right to warm legs.

YABU, DH tries to do this to me. I hate it and he has the bruises to prove it Grin.

Of course you're not being unreasonable!

I like to score OH out of ten for his manly composure. He's quite good at not wincing.
