Body language also exists while we sleep, not just while we are awake. So the position in which a loving couple sleeps can reveal a lot about their relationship - whether the relationship is healthy or there are certain problems in it
Whether a love affair is healthy and close or there are certain problems in it - all this can be deduced from the position in which couples sleep.
We reveal the 8 most common positions and what it can reveal:
1. They are turned on their backs and do not touch
Although this way of sleeping may seem not at all romantic, according to one study, this pose is most common among partners - probably because it is practical.
"This position shows that the partners are close, independent and feel safe with each other," says psychologist Corrine Sweet.
2. 'Spoon' position
It is a position where one partner is turned with his back and the other is ‘glued’ to him (for his back) and hugs him. This pose could be called a classic among loving couples and shows how one partner is protective of the other.
- This pose is also very sensual. However, if one partner 'hunts' the other on the bed, trying to hug him from behind, and this one slips away every time, then there is something wrong with the relationship - explained Patti Wood, a body language expert.
3. They are embraced by arms and legs, but ...
Couples who sleep in this position tend to intertwine their legs and arms while their faces are facing each other, but, after about 10 minutes, they separate.
- It is a compromise between intimacy and independence, which enables the best of both worlds - says psychologist Corrine Sweet and adds that about eight percent of couples sleep like this.
4. They turn their backs and touch
This pose shows how both partners are relaxed and feel comfortable in their relationship. She is common in love relationships.
5. One partner dominates the bed
It looks something like this - one partner is spread all over the bed (that one is dominant) and the other is squeezed in some corner because there is no room. And their everyday life is similar to the way they sleep, one dominates and the other has a secondary position in the relationship.
6. They sleep all night with their legs and arms intertwined
This could show that the partners are not independent, that is, they are dependent on each other. They feel the need to stick together.
7. One partner has his head on the chest of the other
This position is more common in fresh love relationships or in relationships in which passion and feelings of intimacy and infatuation are rekindled. About four percent of couples sleep like this.
8. They face each other but do not touch
Sleeping with your face facing your partner may indicate an emotionally demanding relationship. This position shows the need for more intimacy in life and closer communication, reports the rd.com portal.
