Just for fun.....

Apparently the way you sleep holds the key to certain aspects of your personality. See if you match up with their profile.

I honestly have no idea. Different positions I think. I usually end up moving before I am cognizant enough to take note of the position I am in. I generally fall asleep on one of my sides.

...before or after the OP came on the scene? ;)

I fall asleep on my back, but at some point in the night I'm a freefaller...

Good point. Do you sleep in a different position when you are sleeping with someone else? Some people don't even touch (weird).

Freefall. I like to cuddle and everything, but when it comes time to genuinely fall asleep, I'm solitary unless I'm very very tired or very comfortable.

I find it nearly impossible to sleep comfortably with a woman in my bed. I just cant do it. I have to be completely alone except for the dog.

Its especially awkward when you've already paid her and she sticks around. Its like, where's the professionalism? :facepalm:

Doggy is okay. He sticks to his corner or risks being rolled on by 224 pounds of brown.

I just saw that on yahoo as well. I don't really sleep in any of those really though, I usually fall asleep in between the freefall/"foetus" positions.

And with the sleeping with animals thing, my cat usually jumps on the bed during the night and tends to stick to her corner but if she gets in my way I usually wake up in middle of the night and stretch and she gets kicked off the bed :rotfl One time I accidently punched her because she was near my head and I didnt realize it

Generally I sleep in the 'freefaller' but wake up as a 'starfish'.. :chuckle:
Eh... cuddling maybe but eventually I end up falling asleep at the edge of the bed by myself...there's more air.

on the page with the survey, someone said they fall asleep in the "full vampire"(flat on back with arms across chest). if i fall asleep in that position, i always wake up after 10 minutes or so.

Freefall, says the site:

I always fall asleep on my back, but my arms are in different positions. sometimes one folded across my chest and the other behind my head or by my side.

F that cuddling noise, when I go to bed it's go to sleep not make someone else feel all warm and cozy, and if you wake me up in the first 30 minutes of my falling asleep I'm F'd and wind up not being able to go back to sleep for several hours, no matter how tired I am. I generally toss and turn throughout the night so I may doze off on my side but when I wake up I could either be on my stomach or my back or on the opposite side. I also can't fall asleep with blankets covering me, but by the time I wake up in the morning unless it's disgustingly hot I seem to have like 4 layers covering me.

Oh and I always sleep with socks, shorts, and a shirt on no matter how hot it is out, with a full set of clothes and my shoes next to the bed in case I have to get up and out super fast (always ready for a burglar or a house fire).

Maybe you should cut back on those tripple shot espressos before bed-time. I have to sleep with clothes on as well. If I don't I have naked dreams and those are never fun.
I remember as a kid I would always wake up facing an entirely different direction or on the floor half-way out of the bed. DOesn't happen anymore though.

A co-worker lost everything several years ago in a house fire, two weeks before Christmas. He and his family were standing out in the snow in their PJs watching the fireman put the fire out. For the first year after that, he slept fully clothed, including his shoes.

I'm a mixture of fetus and freefall. I'm on my side "up top" but I kinda roll to my stomach with one leg straight and the other in the fetus-style.

Nice and comfy.
