Can't sleep and cuddle!

My boyfriend recently got upset with me that I don't like to cuddle with him while falling asleep. I do care about him but need my sleep. What should I do?

Fertility Stories - infertility experiences of people like you.

A few times a week, get into bed earlier than usual, spend some time cuddling and then go to sleep... Either that, or cuddle on the couch before you go to bed... In any case, it's nice for you to try to meet his cuddling needs.

Love is the battery of life....

Hi,


Some people like to cuddle much more than others.  When one wants much and the other wants little that's the origion of hard feeling.... that can escalate to fights / arguements..... The best thing you can do is be considerative..... all he wants is your intimacy / warmth...  nothing is wrong with it, and you didn't really suffer or have to "sacrify" much.... so, go an extra mile for him, give him as much cuddles as he wants (and even a bit more). 
Best regards,

MY inferiority complex isn't as good as YOURS

I feel the same way!I hate cuddling.I'm very claustophobic and my body temp is naturally a few degrees higher than most peoples and I get hot verrry easily.I cuddle with my bf on the couch before we go to bed,or I'll turn him on his side and cuddle up behind him.I HATE being spooned but I don't mind reversing it.Explain to him that it's not him,it's simply a quirk.Good luck and I'm glad to hear that there's another female in the world who's as anti-cuddling as me!

Never Quit! Never Give Up!

In answering this question, I have to ask you one.  Does he give you anything that he doesn't like to do?  If so, shame on you for not sacrificing something so easy to do to make him happy!  Do you have any idea how many millions of women feel like crying because they have no one to cuddle with?  Seriously, suck it up and give the good man some cuddlelovin'  and a few tugs as well!

"I have the same problem" Prior to our marriage, she always cuddled. Now, she doesn't. I fear this shows a distance that has developed between us. My advice is to cuddle, and if need be move apart after he falls asleep. Could save the whole relationship...
