I've noticed something interesting about Sean and my habits when it comes to taking sides. And no, I don't mean sides of a fight or debate, but sides of the bed, couch, table, etc. Is it a phenomenon that occurs in other committed relationships as well? I'm curious.

When I moved in with Sean, right before we got married, he had already planted his flag on the right side of the bed (sleeper's right, not looking at the bed right...anyways). I was fine with this, and my side of the bed became the left. But this configuration seems to have spread to other areas of the house. In the bathroom, we have two sinks...he's on my right, and I'm on his left. Dining room table... he's on my right, I'm on his left. When we sit on the couch to watch TV, he's on the right, and I'm on the left. I've tried sitting on the right...it felt really strange. 

The only place I consciously sit to his right is at the movies. When we went to our first movie together, that's how we sat and for some reason it's been that way every since.

Are we weird?

Am I the only one who's witnessed this in their relationship? I'd love to hear how you and your significant other take sides. Also, are there other unconcious habits that you've fallen into?

I missed my calling as a ribbon dancer. Only my kitties appreciate the depth of my talent.
