I mostly sleep on the right side of the bed. Only because I have placed the bed right next to the wall. I move a lot when I get to sleep. If I dont get to sleep next to the wall there is a big chance for me to fall off the bed. But sometimes I switch places with my partner, it is during these times that I feel really constricted when I am up against a wall when I try to get some sleep. Good thing my partner accomodates though, but there are times also that even she feels constricted when she sleeps next to the wall. We tried to put the bed in the middle of the room and guess what? yes I fell off the bed...come to think of it--maybe we should get a much bigger bed! hhhmmmmmmmm....
how about you? which side of the bed do you sleep? why?

I sleep in the middle of the bed, lol. Hubby sleeps on the sofa. We only have a twin bed and it is too small for both of us. Plus, he snores and keeps me awake. This arrangement works pretty good for us. I've offered to take turns on the couch but he refuses. His choice.
Before, when we had a queen sized bed I usually took whatever side was closest to the door or which ever side wasn't against a wall (depending on how the bed was positioned). I was always pregnant (the first 3 years of our marriage) so I was constantly getting up in the night to use the bathroom. Plus I feel claustrophobic if I'm crowded (not small places--just crowded ones).

There are also times that my partner and I dont sleep in one bed even when we are both at home.. she sometimes takes the loft on the side of the room too---like right now, as I am typing this message she is snoring away on the loft while the bed goes unoccupied.
I can also empathize with feeling claustrophobic if Im crowded--I love it it when I am in open spaces. I just love the space of the outdoors..

I like to sleep on the side of the bed where the wall is. I dont have a partner to share the bed with and so Ive got a double bed all to myself. I love the extra room I just never know where to sleep, I prefer the wall but sometimes I like to put the bed in the middle of the room and sleep in the middle of the bed... I mean Ive got a hole bed to myself why sleep on a side?

I am a single dad, and I have a giantic bed, where when I am reading, I get visits from our sheepdog and my son. I sleep mostly on the right side, because that is where my stereo and books are. But the bed is big enough I find myself all over the place.

I use to sleep on the left side. Now I prefer to sleep on the right side because it's near the radio. I will notice also when my partner is coming to bed. Right side is his side of bed.
