The Loose Spoon

Now this is a position we can totally relate to. It's like the regular spoon, but looser and more casual. It certainly combats the issue we talked about where it sometimes just gets way too hot to be that close to someone. There's a lot more air flow and freedom of movement going on and we're sure it's a bit easier to sort out that spooning 'dead arm' that plagues big spoons the world over.

The loose spoon is much more popular with couples who have been together for a while. You still love sleeping close to each other, but there's less desire to be all up against each other's bodies while you snooze. Sharing a bed doesn't stay super exciting forever, and it's nice to make the most of all that extra mattress space.
