Oh God Laurel, my last bf displayed about 50% of these tendencies and even half-dose was infuriating. Sleep, no fun exertions, anger, hidden dodgy past I found out about on a blog...

ugh, laurel i didn't know it was this bad. i was in the path of the seizure on your birthday and it was pretty scary in a "why is this person knocking me over and kicking me?" way and of course once i realized what was happening also scary - sorry it sounds like that was a regular occurence :(
glad he is kicked to the curb. let's get "boys are jerks" drinks soon.

It's not really an STD I guess, since it's almost impossible to get it that way, but for the purposes of my having been put at risk unknowingly it's p much the same.
― how did I get here? why am I in the whiskey aisle? this is all so (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 June 2012 17:35 (twelve years ago) link
Fair enough, thank you. I hadn't really thought about that as an STD. I have a few friends who have it, but I presumed they all got it through drug use.

You know, speaking of duvet mussing, what do boys have against sheets??? I haven't met one in...ever? that used a top sheet. Hardly ever. WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE THAT THEY WANT TO SLEEP UNDER DIRTY DUVETS?
― how did I get here? why am I in the whiskey aisle? this is all so (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 June 2012 17:54 (twelve years ago) link
I never use a top sheet but I wash the duvet/duvet cover once a week.
― (✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Tuesday, 26 June 2012 17:57 (twelve years ago) link
I am iffy on duvets and sleep above a fitted sheet and below a top sheet and light blanket
― mh, Tuesday, 26 June 2012 17:57 (twelve years ago) link
also if the sheet and blanket aren't tucked under the end of the bed I get fussy

If the sheet and blanket ARE tucked in it makes me want to die.
― (✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Tuesday, 26 June 2012 17:59 (twelve years ago) link
Laurel you must be talking about a comforter that you don't wash, right? Cause I change the fitted sheet and duvet cover once a week making a top sheet just an extra nuisance imo.
― (✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Tuesday, 26 June 2012 18:00 (twelve years ago) link
I don't mean don't wash ever - just less frequently.
i wish i had dishy stuff about my breakup but it's more like nerd gripes.

My husband conditioned ME into the top sheet - I was a comforter sleeper (would wash it monthly or so. I was gross, but only just so..) I like a good tuck but don't bother all the time. If it's too tight it hurts my toes (I am the most delicate of flowers, clearly)

I literally cannot sleep in a bed with tucked in covers. The first thing I do at a hotel is untuck all the bedding. I need my feet exposed.

top sheet yestucked in alwaysbed made...meh, it's nice when I change the sheets but I don't require it otherwise. I'm really only ever in my bedroom to sleep. If I spent more time in there reading or whatnot I would def make my bed.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 26 June 2012 18:06 (twelve years ago) link
My god you tucked in people are all crazy. It gets so hot and stuffy!! The only thing worse would be if you said you wore socks in addition to tucking. AHHHHHHHHHHHH!

yeah I hate tucked-in as well, feel like i'm TRAPPED

I have to start out tucked in and cozy, so that I may throw the sheets about in my sleep when I warm up

yes! i feel this way. i cannot have the end of anything be tucked in anywhere while sleeping and must kick it free before i can even think about relaxing in bed.

tucked-in is the only way to ensure the blankets will be laying evenly across your body when you pull them tight! savages.

if you don't tuck the top sheet in it will become wrapped around your body as the night progress leading to mummification
