I love love, and I’m lucky to have found a partner who’s almost perfect ― when he’s awake, anyway.
Trouble is, for about a third of our time together, my boyfriend is asleep next to me. And until recently, that meant I absolutely couldn’t be.
The Sleep Demon that apparently lay in my partner’s subconscious would charge headfirst at me in his sleep, until my boyfriend’s diagonal cross-bed pose meant I had no room on the bed. Pushing him didn’t help. Waking him up was pointless, as he’d just do the same in an hour.
