Do you share a blanket or do you have your own?

After years and years of my husband and I fighting over the comforter, of having that cold tunnel down our back, of just not having enough of it, we decided to get separate blankets. Now we're never cold, we never wake up freezing. It's so much nicer. Most people we know think this is weird, a husband and wife should share a blanket they say.... How about you? Do you share and how's that working for ya or do you have your own?

bedtime - try to get some sleep
No....My husband and I not really fighting about blanket. We do love each other and hugging while sleeping but when he in a deep sleep....he simply pull the whole blanket to his side during the winter and throw the whole blanket at me during the summer.....gulp. So, I decided to get separate blankets only in the winter...and I'll throw the whole blanket on his side in the summer....hehehe.

I can't sleep that way, it's nice that you can though. Plus my hubby is so hot at night that he ends up sweating and then I'm sticky too and I'm not into that. Especially in the summer, I need my space.

I always see to it that i have my own blanket wherever place i sleep.Coz I really can't sleep if i'll share a blanket with someone, we would probably end up fighting over the blanket.hehe I think I would still do the same when i get married.

I feel ya Schorrawaggle! My husband and I just can not share a blanket! I like to have about half of my body out from under the covers and my husband steals them all to cover himself completely. So during the winter we share for a short time with the XL blanket we have but after that it's back to two seprate ones. I don't think it's weird,everyone has their own way of being comfortable.

We share the blankets, and it's working out great. I don't have to wake up freezing because even if I didn't have most of the blanket, he puts off enough heat that I call him 'my personal heater'! lol

yeah my husband is like a heater too, but doesn't like my icy cold feet anywhere near him, cuz then he can't sleep. And sometimes he's so hot, he sweats and then the sheets are soaked. Another reason we have our own blankets

It's difficult for me to share my blanket with otherthan my partner as i don't like it first and i won't feel comfort in doing so.I share with my partner as i like it to do you know why so.

we have our own, just because you have your own blanket it does not mean you are not close we always are
