AIBU to expect DP to sleep at same end of the bed as me?

[CurlyJims]

Is this really too much to expect?

YABU, especially if you snore or co-sleep. Sometimes I top and tail with DH as it means his snoring sounds quieter or if I need more room for me and the baby.

Yep! I brush my teeth, definitely not that!!

Foot fetish praps?

At the moment co-sleeping however this has been going on for over a year - long before I even got pregnant!! And neither of us snores!!

How about you turn the whole bed around, then you wouldn't have the problem of the footboard and he is still sleeping facing the way he wants to. Or would that confuse him?

Never thought about food fetish, he denies it but perhaps if I started sleeping with socks on he may change ends again...!

I sometimes sleep at the 'wrong' end of the bed. For some odd reason if I'm having trouble sleeping it sometimes helps. No idea why. But I'd never set out to do it every night - that is just a bit odd. Maybe he just finds your breathing around him smelly a bit annoying?

Maybe he just doesn't love you anymore and has another woman and can't tell you cos he still likes you and oh i just don't care.

Say it aint so.

*foot not food :)

If DP has bad beery breath then i just turn over and pull a pillow up between us!

Are you a marriage guidance person?

DP did this once when he was pissed, went to bed, he said 'i am sick of sleeping next to that wall' and slept upside down.

Wasn't much fun when I got kicked in the face.

Has only happened the once, though. Can't imagine it every day of my life.

My dh does this quite a lot as well. He says It helps if he wakes in the night, breaks the pattern of insomnia or something.
He does start at the same end as me though...does your dp?

I sometimes turn around in bed, it helps if I am suffering badly from insomnia (for some odd reason...)
However, I would never make it a permanent move, and as there is no headboard and I am taller than the bed is long it means my head is right on the end of the bed (even slightly over the edge) and my pillow keeps falling off...

I could not cope with dh's manky feet next to me on a nightly basis.... Offer to move the bedroom furniture around if it means you are both sleeping the right way up...

My DH does this occasionally as he suffers from insomnia and says that I am too hot! Apparently I give off a lot of heat, and as most of me is at the top half of the bed he find's it cooler down at the bottom of the bed.

My DH used to do that, I awoke one night to feel him licking I between my toes... Turned out he had a secret foot fetish..

He's just being polite.
When my OH wakes up and I'm at the other end of the bed and he has a tender feeling in several places, he knows it's because he's been snoring like a drunken elephant and punching him hasn't worked.
OP, you probably snore.

Curlybits or Jims what ever, maybe it's so he can get a clear view up ya never regions.. How's the bed fun??.

I've never known a bloke do that and suspect if any bloke suggested that I wouldn't sleep with him again. I like to be cuddled and if we wake during the night feel our hands touching. Being kicked by smelly feet is yucky. I'd offer to move the furniture around so the bed was at the end of the room he wanted but if he just wanted to top and tail for the hell of it I don't think we'd be together. I really can't imagine agreeing to something so barking and antisocial.
It'd be like sleeping with my brother or sister as a young kid. Fine when you are 5

I sometimes end up at the bottom, reasons include insomnia -god knows why this works but it does,
dh snoring, dh taking up too much space..more space if i have only his feet to contend with, if he's eaten garlic earlier on, or i get too hot and need to lie on a cold part of the bed.

Other than that the only reason i could see is that your dp has just got used to being upside down, if he's been there a year. A bit like when you get used to sleeping on the same side of the bed but if you swap sides it feels wrong.

Me and dp have been known to do this in hot summers.
