For years and years, I’d wake up in a puddle of sweat from overheating in my sleep.
I’d always called myself a sizzling sleeper because of this.
I’d tried setting the thermostat to several low rapidly increasing temperatures, but none of them ever made a change in the world. I even added a portable fan, which barely helped. I could set the oil furnace to 65 degrees plus I’d still wake up dripping with sweat. I had always assumed that our oil furnace was broken plus it was causing our living room to get hotter than all the other rooms in the house, this was how I lived my life, or so I thought. Last week, I got very sick plus had to quarantine in my room alone, my amazing partner hard moved all his belongings for the next 10 days to our guest living room plus let me be in isolation, and during my first night alone though, I slept the entire night plus didn’t wake up from overheating once. I also had thought that it had something to do with my illness, then however, when the same thing happened the minute plus eighth night too, I realized what was very causing me to overheat all these years. It wasn’t the oil furnace that was broken or an old and leaking thermostat, it was my spouse! My spouse was naturally a sizzling bodied person, plus he was causing me to overheat every night while he slept next to me. His body was like a personal heater. I couldn’t guess it! I finally realized this when he detached himself from our bed during my quarantine.
