My husband and I have always slept in a double bed. When we married my mother gave us her bedroom furniture which she had had for years. It had a double bed, so all our sheets were double.
At first I had a hard time falling asleep, because lying with someone else kept me awake.
But I got used to it. And when we went to buy new bedroom furniture a few years ago, so we finally had some quality stuff (that didn't squeak :), we bought a double again. The man at the store was amazed. No one buys doubles anymore. But I like sleeping where I can feel him. Usually at least my feet are touching him.
We've been travelling a lot lately, though, and sleeping in hotels where they have Kings. That's a weird feeling. I can never find him! Even in a Queen he seems so far away. And on King beds they give you three pillows. Who is the third one for, anyway?
So I'm wondering, what do you sleep on? And why? I think I'll always be a Double kind of gal, but what about you?

I remember on the way to our honeymoon, we stayed at a hotel in Austin, and slept in a king size bed. I rolled onto my side, then scooted back a little, then a little more, then a little more, and some more... trying to snuggle up against my new hubby. I finally looked over my shoulder to see him very amused on the other side of the bed! It was huge!
We had a queen for probably the first 7 or eight years we were married. Then we moved up to a king. I love it! I need my space during the night. I like to snuggle just until I'm about to fall asleep, then, I don't want anybody touching me. Which is probably partly why we don't let the kids in our bed!
