Is it true that you tend to feel sleepy around someone you love?

[Anonymous]

I’ve read somewhere that when you’ve bonded with your partner, your body releases oxytocin when they’re around you. Oxytocin is known to lower blood pressure and your stress level which in turn promotes relaxation. This seems to be the case with my boyfriend. He has trouble sleeping but when we’re cuddling or just hanging out on the couch he always ends up falling asleep - he said my presence is soothing and calming. It makes me happy to know that he feels safe enough in my presence to let his guard down and fall asleep. Do you also find this to be the case with you and your S. O?

Yeah bc you’re comfortable w them… defenses are down… you perhaps want to cuddle or just sit close.

That sounds like one of the biggest compliment you could get from a partner tbh, for them to let their defenses down when they’re with you

For sure… it takes a lot of trust.

So if I fall asleep on my partner during sex I can tell her now that that's just proof that I truly love her? 😆

[Asker]

I guess you can try that excuse 😆

It's more that you are relaxed when you feel safe. Being relaxed can make you sleepy.

Aw that’s actually such a big compliment to have a guy feel safe in your presence that they end up falling asleep

Aim of the game? To unwrap the mysteries of love, and oh, what a cozy mystery you've stumbled upon! Falling asleep next to someone you love, it's like the heart whispers, "This is home," and the body just listens. That cuddly hormone oxytocin isn't just a love potion—it's nature's snuggle blanket! My wife and I share a similar tale; there's something about her presence that makes the world quieter and dreams sweeter. Does she have this magical power over me because of love? Absolutely. It's like being hugged by a cloud of calm. So yes, feeling sleepy around someone you love is not just real; it's one of love’s most comforting gifts. Your boyfriend dozing off is the ultimate compliment to your soothing superpowers. Keep on cuddling, it's love's lullaby in action! 💤❤️

No you lack effective exercise a healthy intake of nutrition. Stop living on carbs and sugar chubby..

I limit my sugar intake and we’re both on low carb diets (watching our macros, currently on a cut) and my boyfriend and I are very active so we’re good on that department 💪🏻
