Personally, I choose the half-spoon position because I like feeling warm and protected. However, my boyfriend likes spooning more.
Spooning or Half-Spoon? Which do you enjoy most and why? 😁
Both of these are so hard to choose but I'd choose the half spoon position!
I usually fall asleep nearly in a few minutes with the half-spoon position because my girlfriend loves it when I wrap my arm around her, as a sense of protection like you said and she can feel the warmth and sound of my heartbeat which puts her body and mind at ease after a long day of work. There's something about the half spoon that feels so fulfilling and comforting that neither of us can never get enough of it! I've tried spooning many times but I either have the problem of my arm falling asleep due to weird positioning or I just get aroused with temptation which can ruin the moment! Honestly though, if I have any opportunity to cuddle, I'll take it in a heartbeat! This is one of the many reasons why relationships are healthy for people; to feel that sense of closeness, intimacy and comfort without feeling lonely or abandoned :)
Same here! It’s wayyy too comforting. As if you’re floating on a cloud 😍 my boyfriend is just like you in the fact that he’ll take any opportunity to cuddle if he can lol I ain’t complaining one bit though
Cuddling does so much good for a relationship and it’s not exclusive to one particular situation. You can use it to express anything whether it’s love, sadness, appreciation, etc
That's what my girlfriend tells me too! I wish I could do the same but her chest is too big for me to cuddle comfortably on her tummy so we just go with what we're comfortable with! Who would complain to something that's more comfortable than a pillow? Ahh the feeling of resting with your partner with cuddling is so divine <3 I can see why you love it as well!
That's very true. It's that sense of comfort, affection and warmth; all put together in one package! To those couples who don't cuddle, I can't understand why they would miss out on something like this :/ Still, I'm happy you and your boyfriend enjoy it when it comes around!
Really? Haha we’re like “couple twins” here lol
Someone on here said they didn’t like cuddling bc it wasn’t their thing, and I was like whaaaat? That’s a sad life 😩
Haha yeah, it’s pretty interesting. At least we can definitely relate when we talk about our relationships, so that’s cool 😎
Honestly its kinda weird bc it’s human nature to seek companionship. That’s why cuddling is so enjoyable. It puts us at ease and brings us closer to what we seek
I usually prefer spooning because I can each over and grab a "handle" (boob) that I hold as I go to sleep and my girlfriend likes it, too. But sometimes, I prefer the half-spoon because I can kiss her, rub her back, and comfort her if she is having any worries or concerns.
Haha yeah my boyfriend does that “handle” thing too sometimes. He says it’s comforting lol I don't know
Don't know why, but it feels good. It rarely turns into a fondling/foreplay thing; we just drift off to sleep like that.
Well that’s good to know then 🤔😊
I prefer spooning, I like feeling him wrapped around me, I like feeling the height difference that we have, I like his arm around me and how the muscles in his arm flex in his sleep and his arms tighten around me, it makes me feel safe and warm and secure. I also like being the big spoon some times and getting to hear him laugh when I do it and then eventually give in and doze off :P
However, half-spoon would be his favourite. He likes having my head on his chest or on his shoulder and having his arm around me, falling asleep on his back is also his default position really, whereas mine is on my side so it does work out quite well. Plus, he says it's better than getting a faceful of my hair :P
Half-Spoon, even if their breath doesn't smell the breathing and warmth with make me feel weird and I'll be thinking the worst. I rather cuddle but have distance so I feel less smothered.

Half spoon! I like to listen to his heartbeat.
Omg that’s the best! 😩
If I had to chose, I would go for the one that gives out the least body heat as possible.
I have never cuddled that way, so I am not really sure which one would suit me better.
Vote A is too daring as I might have to expect an involuntary reaction while Vote B is not much better either.
I will refrain from voting but solely from a point of view of least heat exchange, I would go for Vote B but with limitations and a number of prohibitions.
Lol it’s not a trick question. It’s simply which you like more :)
I keep my hair out of my partners face with the half spoon, and he normally falls asleep before I do and I've found its easier to get out of his hold with this one, but love listening to my SO's heartbeat and he runs his fingers through my hair, telling me he would like to see it longer, I have a sort of pixie cut, and kisses my forehead or the top of my head depending on what position it's in.
Yesss forehead kisses are the best! 😩
Out of those two options I'd choose the second one every time. I'm not a big fan of her hair being all up in my face in the first one. The position I like the most, however, is something i guess called "the honeymoon hug" where we're both lying on our sides facing each other legs intertwined and arms wrapped around each other in a tight embrace.
Oh yes! I know which one you’re talking about. Really though? Maybe it’s good for cuddling but not for sleeping (in my opinion lol) it’s a pretty intimate position though, which I’m all for 😊
For sleeping. I prefer sleeping on my side or my stomach. I'm not a big fan of sleeping straight on my back. So, if I went to sleep in the sweethearts cradle I'd probably wake up in the honeymoon hug lol. I'd rather sleep on my back, though, than sleep on my side with hair in my face.
Omg sleeping on my back is impossible lol but I totally get that. I would probably hate hair in my face too 😆
Half-spoon, way more comfortable for me, no hair in my face and no awkward boner for half the night 😂 Also I like having my arm around the girl, make it feel more snuggly and more like I'm protecting them :)
You know, tbh I thought guys liked spooning because of that! 😆
I like feeling secured and snuggly like you mentioned, so I definitely agree with that 👏🏼
It's good if I'm wanting to step it up a gear, because I can "accidentally" rub on the girl, but if I'm just wanting to relax/go to sleep, then half-spoon is the way to go :) yeah half-spoon feels way more secure in my opinion
Ohhh I see haha “accidentally”. That makes more sense lol
Yeah if you're spooning your man and you can feel... the raising of the dead... against you he's definitely trying to tell you something 😂 it's a tactic all guys use haha
I know that a lot of the times they hope it leads to more, but it can happen accidentally for real, right? Lol like just brushing up against it makes it do that 😆
Yeah of course the raising can be accidental, but if you notice it being pressed against you, then chances are its not, especially if its pressed, then pulled back, then pressed, thats what men call "a subtle hint" 😂
Haha yeah I know that cue from personal experience! 😂
Don't we all? 😂
I like sleeping on my girl’s boobs. So whatever position that is 😂 Spooning is my second favorite but I have yet mastered how to sleep comfortably in that position. It kills my arm.
Spooning seriously does take some mastering haha
A: It might be hard, if I'm not tired. (that's sexual position) B: If were just cuddling and/or tired, it's more intimate in a personal way, face and eye contact, I especially like head on my arm or chest.
Haha yeah I know what you mean 😅
And I agree! You feel closer in personal way 👏🏼 hearing a guys heartbeat is just wow!
I didn’t know that it was called “half-spoon” 😂 but it’s cute
I’ve never cuddled, but I would pick the half-spoon. I normally sleep that way anyway, and regular spoon might be too hot.
Yeah it has different names for it lol I didn’t know it was called that either
And I totally agree! I sleep in that position too. I just hold a pillow in place of my boyfriend lol so it’s perfect 👌🏼
neither. first one.. hate the breathing on my neck. can't stand that ticklish feeling
second one. my neck hurts.. for short term (5 minsl though.. ill choose this one
Really? Only 5 minutes? I could literally fall asleep with the half spoon and stay that way the whole night lol I sleep that way with a big body pillow so I’m totally used to the feeling. Its so comfy
I'm so small am pretty sure whoever I'd marry would wanna spoon but I like the idea of a half spoon better 😂😂
Haha agree 100%
I cannot stand cuddling when I'm about to sleep (I need my space), but for watching movies and stuff the half spoon is my favorite 😍
Haha I can understand that! Boundaries 😅 but yesss omg couch cuddles and a movie is pure bliss 😩
Spooning. But i enjoy being the big spoon. He enjoys being the small spoon. Kinda funny, cause i'm 5'2. He is 6'1.
I relate lol I’m 5’3” and my boyfriend is 6’3” 😆 the size difference really makes it work in any way though which is awesome
Neither. I need my own space to fall asleep. I'm a light sleeper. Any touch or discomfort will wake me up.
Well for cuddling, not sleeping
I pick half spoon but I'm gonna mix it up a bit. I'm the biggest cuddler you'll ever meet, so I'm the one cuddling my girlfriend vice her cuddling me
Guys who cuddle and enjoy it get gold stars! ⭐️
Traditional spooning. It allows me to hold her close to me and feel her heat. I guess the other position does too but I just like how traditional spooning feels.
Fitting perfectly together is a pretty cool feeling ☺️
I miss it.
It’ll happen again, no worries :)
I know. I wish it would happen sooner than later.
Aww that ones nice too! Like after a long day, that’s great 👏🏼
For strictly cuddling I prefer the half spoon because I can sustain it for longer. But I can't sleep doing either.
For me, I could definitely fall asleep that way haha
So do you cuddle at all to sleep or is it just too uncomfortable for you?
I sleep on my stomach facing the outside of the bed. That being said, I can doze a bit in cuddle position but not actually sleep.
That and I put out heat like a space heater so cuddle sleeping = sweaty
Ohhh yeah getting hot and sweaty can definitely ruin cuddling. Summer time is the worst lol
Even in the winter I only sleep with a sheet and a thin blanket
Oh you’re hardcore! I’ll need to be rolled in at least three layers of blankets like a little sushi lol
Nope, can't do it. I'll melt into a puddle
Well I live in Florida, so that might be it 😆
I grew up in Louisiana where we laugh at Florida heat lol. Then lived in Montana and north Dakota for a few years. I realized im a cold weather person haha.
Hey, you leave Florida alone! Lol i mean dont get me wrong, I definitely enjoy cold weather vs hot, but Florida has made me weak to it 😆
It was a trade off. You lost the cold for the heat
I think the half spoon. It’s more affectionate and more like we are hugging each other not just me hugging her.
Ohh I like that! Very good way of putting it. Half spoon is also my pick 😊
depends. if the cuddling is the main activity, i like the half spoon or just full frontal cuddling. for trying to sleep, i like spooning more, cause that's less involved and better for relaxation.
A lot of people say spooning is uncomfortable to sleep to lol body heat and all that haha
Luckily where I live it's cold enough xD you can just sleep with open window if it gets too hot.
Ahh that’s awesome. I live in Florida so that’s probably it too lol
yeah to me everything starting 25 degrees is too hot xD
Omg haha I mean during winter time it’s great, but summer? Ugh forget it 😩
I prefer a full spoon, but as long as there is a nice warm body for me to snuggle up to I am not going to complain, especially if my SO is holding me.
