Stealing the Covers

S

The best way to handle a disagreement is to avoid it. If your spouse steals the covers or if you tend to move around a lot in your sleep:

  • Put one bottom sheet on the bed.
  • Put two top sheets on, one on each half. Fold two large ones into rectangles or triangles, depending on how you two share the bed. Or get two twin sheets.
  • Do the same with blankets or comforters or duvets.
  • If you worry about others snickering, get a big coverlet or comforter to throw over the top while you’re awake.

This also works if one of you like the sheets tight and the other loose. Or if one of you likes a thin blanket and the other a nice heavy one.
