Your sleep position says a lot about your relationship... Surprising!

Because it's important to know where you are in your relationship, and because the way you share the bed can reveal many things about your relationship.
 
Whether it's lying on your back, your stomach, or your side, everyone has their favorite sleep position.
 
Although body language can vary, the posture we use while sleeping with our partner speaks volumes about our current emotional state.
 
Here are the various positions and what they mean:
 
1. The 'each person on his or side' position
If you lie back-to-back without touching, it doesn't necessarily mean that you're mad at each other. This can mean that you are independently connected to each other.
