A preface. Mike likes us to sleep on our sides like spoons. I like him to sleep on his back, and then I lay on my belly and put my head on his shoulder. He hates sleeping on his back. I hate sleeping on my side. And thus you have the biggest conflict in our marriage.
Him: Mmmmm. Spoons. So comfy. Sweet dreams, Pumpkin.
Me: Can I put my head on your shoulder?
Him: Shhh... go to sleep.
Me: Please?
Him: ...mmmmmm... ...so cozy...
Me: It would more cozy if my head was on your shoulder...
Him: Shhhh....
Me: Come on. Roll over.
Him: (pretend snoring)
Me: If you love me you'll let me put my head on your shoulder.
Him: Shh... Sleep.
Me: Can I sleep with my head on your shoulder tomorrow night?
Him: (big sigh) Sure. Go to sleep.
Me: Promise?
Him: Yeah, whatevs. GO TO SLEEP.
Me: We should take turns. Like, every other night we sleep your way and on alternate nights we sleep my way.
Him: ...
Me: So tonight is your night.
Him: ... You gonna move to the couch then, or what?

Learn to sleep on your side - its healthier. It IS!
Choosing the eye socket was an act of kindness. :-)
Some guys can only sleep well after getting kicked in the balls. You should try that next time.
