To think even on a hot night it's absurd to sleep with no covering?

Dh is snoring away, on top of the sheet we are using on the bed on this roasting night.

It's discombobulating. Clearly the man is a psychopath.

I've took the duvet out and sleep under the duvet cover. There's no insulation at all but I still get the feeling that something is covering me

Bettercallsaul1 · 25/06/2020 09:14

Totally unreasonable behaviour, OP! I wouldn’t take this lying down.

lynsey91 · 25/06/2020 09:19

Both me and DH slept naked with no covers all night! Probably will again tonight

MistyGreenAndBlue · 25/06/2020 09:20

Well. I survived the night and actually slept ok for me.
Monsters my fat dimpled arse! Grin

bellsbuss · 25/06/2020 09:26

I don't care how hot it is there is no way I could sleep without a duvet. OH thinks I'm nuts when I say something will get me otherwise Blush

Chocolateandamaretto · 25/06/2020 09:31

I slept naked, with a fan on full blast, with a duvet cover. I must have my neck and torso covered or I can’t sleep! Husband is the opposite, must wear pjs but doesn’t need a cover...

Persiaclementine · 25/06/2020 09:37

I cant sleep without any covers on, I will stick a foot out or both but I feel vulnerable without any on

Jellybeansincognito · 25/06/2020 09:40

The ‘yes he’s putting himself at risk of being murdered’ response has me in stitches.

Why do we feel so exposed without any covering? I mean... if someone was there, a duvet cover isnt stopping anything is it! 🤣

notalwaysalondoner · 25/06/2020 09:40

I agree, it makes me so nervous. I’ll stick my top half out and a leg out, but never altogether.

I’ve even been known to sleepwalk and get up to put knickers on when I’m sleeping naked - some deep seated issues here I think about being exposed...!

madcatladyforever · 25/06/2020 09:41

I spent the whole night without a sheet on. The only covering I had was a 19 year old cat wrapped round my head. She likes my memory foam pillow. I roll the duvet up lengthways and use it to lie back into otherwise the bed feels a bit weird with no sheets on.

pointythings · 25/06/2020 09:47

I'll sleep with nothing at all over me if it's really hot. But it has to be a lot hotter than this - I'm on empty duvet cover right now.

Itscoldouthere · 25/06/2020 09:48

I can’t sleep naked, I’d be too conscious of my fat bits to get to sleep 😳
DH on the other hand is always on top of the sheet naked, or walking around naked first thing in the morning making coffee 🤦‍♀️

Fleamaker123 · 25/06/2020 09:51

Have to be covered, especially the feet, otherwise something will tickle the soles. Likewise any exposed neck area will attract vampires.

I need to be covered!

MilerVino · 25/06/2020 09:52

One of the joys of summer is being able to sleep with no covers and no PJs. Everyone, well everyone sensible, knows that monsters leave you alone when it's over 25 deg. c. They don't like the heat either.

VickyEadieofThigh · 25/06/2020 10:26

You lot saying it's weird will change you tune when you hit menopause...

LillianBland · 25/06/2020 10:29

I’m just going to do a head count, to check that the reckless naked on top of the sheets sleepers, have survived the night.

CoalCraft · 25/06/2020 10:29

I pushed the cover completely off me last night and slept naked it's just do much more comfortable if the sweat can evaporate completely. Dh was covered from the waist down and had boxers on as he "doesn't like his bits exposed wine he sleeps"

Meruem · 25/06/2020 10:30

One of the reasons I have portable air con in my room is so I can sleep with a cover and not be too hot! Sleeping with nothing covering me just feels weird and uncomfortable. Ex and I had countless arguments about me "wasting money" by running it when in his mind I could just switch it off and sleep on top of the covers. I got rid of the ex and kept the air con Grin (not the only reason of course but now I can do what I like!).

BearSoFair · 25/06/2020 10:30

YANBU sleeping with your feet out is just wrong!

CoralFish · 25/06/2020 10:31

The monsters can't get you as long as you are under the covers. Fact.

It’s reckless people like you, that put strain on the NHS! 😡 They’re the ones left tending to you and stitching you up, when the monster under the bed/in the wardrobe gets you, because you’ve slept without your monster repelling sheet! Reckless, totally reckless! 😱
thatmustbenigelwiththebrie · 25/06/2020 10:36

I slept in the cellar last night as it was lovely and cool. Very hard floor though.

caringcarer · 25/06/2020 10:39

A very cool shower before bed, sleeping with damp hair, naked on top of sheet here. Too hot to care.

thepeopleversuswork · 25/06/2020 10:41

I'm with you OP. Have argued with every single partner I've ever had and my DD over this. However hot it is I can't be comfortable without a cover.

copperoliver · 25/06/2020 10:45

I brought two single sheets for this weather. That way you can do what you like with your own sheets. X
