This is interesting..
How do you sleep with your partner? Do you cuddle
facing each other or face opposite directions? Then it just may tell you
the state of your relationship...
According to new research, they way we sleep with partners determines the strength of out relationships.
Partners who sleep less than an inch apart(above) are far more likely to be happy together than those maintaining a gap wider than 30 inches.And couples who spend the night making physical contact are happier than those who do not touch.
The research, published today at the Edinburgh International Science Festival, expands on work by psychiatrist Samuel Dunkell.
-He found people who lie curled up in the ‘full foetal’ position are likely to be indecisive, anxious and sensitive to criticism.
-Those who sleep in a ‘semi-foetal’ position, with their knees drawn up, are conciliatory, amenable to compromise, and unlikely to take extreme stances, he said.
-People who sleep in the ‘royal’ position – flat on their back – tend to be confident, open, expansive, and sensation-seeking.
-And those who lie ‘prone’ on their face show a tendency for rigidity and perfectionism.

Of those who fall asleep touching, couples tend to be happier if they
are face-to-face than if they ‘spoon’ their partners, facing the same
direction, or if they face in opposite directions
