Sharing a bed

[booboo22]

I am going to a festival with my high school and just got the room assignments. It's four guys to one room with two queen beds.

In the room is me and one of my good friends and two other kids who are friends but not friends with me and my friend.

I don't mind sharing a bed and I wonder if I should plan to share a bed with my friend, although I don't know if my friend will want to share. I really don't want to end up on the floor as I find it very uncomfortable. However, I don't want my friend to end up on the floor either.

We are both seniors and the other two are juniors, should we call seniority and force them to sleep on the floor all three nights or what.

I shared beds with the kids at my other school but that was several years ago.

What should I do?

I should add that as far as I know we are all straight.
ETA: I don't know if my friend will want to share a bed either.

If you and your friend don't mind sleeping in the same bed, then go ahead. Nothing is wrong with sharing a queen bed, there is so much space anyways its not like you are sleeping on top of eachother.

Part of the issue is that i don't know if my friend will want to share a bed.

[chill dude]

I go on a lot of trips where the same type of sleeping arrangements take place. I think it is normal for guys to sleep in the same bed in these types of situations. It will only be awkward if you make it awkward. Also, you might want to talk to your friend before hand. One thing I used to do the first couple times I had to sleep like this, was one person sleep under the sheet, and the other on top of the sheet. I hope this helps.

Just bring it up like its just a regular question. "Hey dude, what is the bed situation on the trip?"

[Contra]

I don't think it's a big deal. You should talk to your friend and ask him what he feels about sharing the bed. I don't know, but I doubt he'll mind, seriously.

[Stronger]

Talk to your friend, but if you both need to sleep in the same bed then do, just have separte sheet, and maybe sleep on opposite ends of each other

[cadet199]

If your both chill with it, then it's cool. Just face different ways haha

[AHSboy]

If he doesn't want to share, then boot him to the floor. And if that doesn't work, tell the adult that is in charge. Plus, hotels usually have fold-up beds, you just have to ask for one. If they don't, have ur friend sleep under the sheets and you sleep on top of them. If you get cold, ask the front desk for another blanket.

[Nellerin]

^^ exactly haha, thats every solution

[senior.2013]

If he doesnt mind, you can share. If he doesnt, you can have it one night, then he the next. Juniors can do the same thing.

[Luke91]

The answer is simple. The bed is big enough for both to sleep in it, so do it. I think it would be stupid to sleep on the floor when there is a bed there.

[HaroldHill]

You should see how he thinks about it

[Tonebone88]

I think you guys should just both sleep in the bed. I know you guys are both straight and dint want it to be awkward but I think you need to realize that nothing will happen. Just sleeping.

[spartanrob]

Been there done that. It will only be awkward if you make a big deal out of it. A queen is plenty big, just get in a share. I'm betting the juniors will look to you two seniors to see if it's OK, so if you guys just get in and don't make a big edeal out of it, no one will.

[Clawhammer]

What exactly are you expecting to hear from us? Doesn't sound to me like a situation that demands much thinking through. It's really no big deal, just share a bed. Not like you're gonna get raped. Otherwise, just go with whatever happens. No big deal. Don't worry about it.

[Trinity_15]

i suggest to sit down with your friend, you can both figure out the best situation, that way than it is not being forced on you when you get there

[kaiba]

suggest top and tailing (one has head at the top, one has head at the end) or take it in turns on the floor

[mfupi2]

It sounds like whomever was making the arrangements was anticipating that you each would be sharing with your friend.

I'd be pretty surprised if anyone wound up on the floor, especially since you all will be in Queen beds.

[User Does Not Exist]

I'm surprised there's any thought to it. Makes sense to me that everyone would share a bed.

And I wouldn't bother having people sleep head to toe, or one over sheets and another under. Just sleep like normal adults sharing a huge bed.

[User_Does Not Exist]

You can sleep in the same bed, just don't make it weird. Be stern like "alright guys no way in hell am I sleeping on the floor" split the bed if you want to. One under the sheet and one on top of the sheet so there's a seperation.

[MykeSoBe]

Just comes to show the underlying homophobia ever-so-present in our culture.

[Drummerboi9876]

queen beds are big enough for two guys... youll be fine

[BaNd]

its simply sharing a bed as long as you to have your dicks covered i thing youll be ok

[TeddyBearRock]

share a bed wiv you friend but sleep top and tale that would make it less awkward if it is already

[Diverperry]

i've been in the same situation like chorus trip and everything. my friend and i just slept in the same bed, it's no big deal.

[OnlyOneChance]

Personally, if I was a junior and a senior called seniority, I would def kick their ass haha, that's not how stuff goes down at my school. But there shouldn't be a problem with you sleeping in a bed with another guy..

[samb12]

share a bed cause that what they want you to do and y mess with the other kids

[jaedwards1]

Most Hotels have the blanket and what i did back in November when I had this same situation is the guy I was "sleeping" with was under the sheet and the blanket while I was just under the blanket

[GirlLover15]

sleep toghther

[lizzard]

I've been on a few multi-night trips with my school. Same scenario of 4 to a room and two beds. It seems to happen that when you get to the room and unpack you pretty much figure out the sleeping arrangements, and if not then, then it comes up that night.
I've always just shared a bed with a friend, set whatever alarms we needed, watched TV, slept, woke up, and figured out an order for showering. Nothing bad ever came of it, we got our rest, and we were set for the day.

Also, I wouldn't try to force seniority. Its just how you're going to sleep. Not really a smart idea to anger the people you're rooming with...doesn't take much to shut off your alarm and sneak about in the morning so you're late for whatever.
Don't dwell on the rooming/sleeping arrangements. Most likely, the majority of your time is going to be spent outside the room anyway, so just make do with what you can, and relax about it - it will be fine.

[booboo22]

So, just an update. The trip was this weekend and I just got back. As it turns out, my friend told the two younger kids that underclassmen had to sleep on the floor. I didn't know that he said that and when I entered the room, the two younger kids got settled on to the floor and I figured that they wanted to be on the floor so I took the bed that was free. Everything worked out fine.

[Drag0nite]

Friends do a lot weirder things than sleeping together

[The Blonde dude]

just ask not a big deal, if it ever comes down to floor or bed at one of my friends house we choose to stay in same bed

seelping in the same bed as a guy dosent mean anything

[irish44]

yea sharing is fine. if ur close friends it shouldnt even be a thought. as part of a hockey team, there has been many times where a bunch of us have slept in the same bed, like 3 or 4. not gay, just no one wanted the floor
