Excuse you I’m adult, which means I put my bed wherever I damn well please

You need a bed frame. Otherwise your bed won't dry properly and it'll mold.

u/averagebrainhaver88 1d ago

Humans are not dry. We're sacks of bones and muscle, sacks made of oily skin, that occasionally covers itself in water to cool itself.

We would be disgusting to ourselves if we weren't humans. If we were some abstract aliens, we'd look at humans sweating and eating and breathing and touching everything the same way we look at a fly vomit and then "clean" it's face with that vomit.

Those can circulate air better, but if I'm not mistaken the mat doesn't get left on that perpetually.

u/Stucklikegluetomyfry 9h ago

That’s exactly what happened to me. When I got my new place, my auntie got me a new mattress as a present. She wanted to get me a bed frame too, but because the ones in the store weren’t what I was looking for (a solidly built ottoman) it ended up not happening.

Few months later I’m flipping my mattress and the underside is covered with mould. Now I’m paying off my new bed frame and mattress in instalments. Felt so upset that I didn’t get a frame earlier and ended up ruining a really kind gift from my auntie.

On today's tiny appartments, you don't have the luxury to split a bedroom in half.

u/NonGNonM 2d ago

What OP's image is insinuating is bed out of corner = you have other people that use the bed and not just you, and you have enough space where you live that you don't need to corner your bed to save space, not a bed and desk room.

Not really criteria for being an "adult" but says you have regular sex and enough money for that kind of space.

21

u/MiniDehl 2d ago

Ummmm never understood this, my bed being in the corner makes it cozier for sex tbh

Okay but washing the sheets and remaking the bed is like 10x more annoying with a corner bed. I don’t need more friction between me and getting chores done.

u/0range_julius 2d ago

Honestly, the real question isn't "are you an adult" it's "do you sleep alone." Bed in corner obviously makes more sense if you're the only one using it, but it sucks if you sleep with another person. Then someone has to be next to the wall, they have to crawl to the foot of the bed or over the other person in order to get out, they can't have their own nightstand, etc.

15

u/MiniDehl 2d ago

I do the crawling onto the bed my partner gets on normally, dont see the issue then I can cuddle into the wall with my partner squishing me further, best sleep ever

6

u/0range_julius 2d ago

You know, I would agree that being sandwiched between my partner and the wall is pretty cosy. But it's just so annoying if I even need to get up in the middle of the night. And the nightstand thing is a big dealbreaker for me. I need a lamp and someplace to put my glasses and my book.

u/MiniDehl 2d ago

Eh im the one that takes one for the team and my bed is next to the window but the sill is basically big enough to act as a nightstand
