My girlfriend stayed over last night, she stays over quite a bit but as I still live with my parents not all that much.

It seems that however much I hint and tell her I like my space when sleeping it falls on deaf ears. She insists on sleeping at least in the middle of the bed and as if that is not enough for her she tries to steal some of my side too, I wont even go into the cover stealing.

Well last night it appears karma was on my side as in my sleep I rolled over and elbowed her right in the cheek. She was fine.

Maybe she will stay on her side next time. evil

What does yours do to annoy you?

You are me AICMFP. Exactly the same problem here, I end up on the edge of the bed with her sprawled out like Lady Muck. Also very weirdly I have also ttted her in the mush in my sleep. She was fine but also does it less now... guess she's taking the hint!

This reminds me of a terrible "joke" which I really ought not type on here.

I've done that before, apparently I hit her right between the eyes but, obviously, I wouldnt know.

Coincidentally, she did it to me a couple of days later. Revenge methinks

Mine ain't got a cat, but feels that the middle 50% is hers. How I'm supposed to use the 25% on either side is beyond my working out.

(I've punched her a few times in my sleep too...)

Snores.

Especially bad habit is that when I go to attend to Pugette Jnr in the middle of the night, I'll come back and all is quiet. Within 3 breaths of lying on the bed, she's snoring ranting

Mine chases me round the bed. If I get fed up of teetering on one edge, I get out and swap sides. Well, I used to. She just slithers over to my new side as soon as my head hits the pillow. King size bed too.

I elbow her and she punched me in the ribs - I think it's a fair exchange

Mine has a regular dream that she is being chased. When it happens, she makes weird noises like she is scared and starts to run in bed! Often kicks me right in the family jewels whilst running!! grrr

Hide a sack of potatoes in the wardrobe. Place sack of patotoes on one side of bed, when she cuddles up to it, carefully get into the other side smile

This used to be a problem for me, I'd be trying to cope with a measly 25% of the bed and my girlfriend would claim the rest.

It's mostly stopped now because I seem to have subconciously decided to do something about it: apparently I have a tendency to partly lie on top of her as though she is just another part of the bed (Her words: 'It's like you don't even know I'm there!')

I'm a heavy sleeper at the best of times but its worse if I've been on the ale. God knows how I manage to stay asleep with my head resting on top of hers but I tend to get more space now...

I was still half asleep...... both times I did it!

My saving grace was that the persons name that was used was a colleagues of mine and i had been at work all day with her. Plus the OH knows my colleague is a fking bog rat so thats not too bad...... in a sense :s
