You love to cuddle, but your arm always goes numb. Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Luckily, there are PLENTY of creative cuddling alternatives to spooning.

1.  Shoulder snugglePut your hand down gif

Have your partner lie on his side. Instead of spooning him, take one hand and place it over his shoulder. Put your other hand down at your side. Simple and easy. Arm = not numb.

2. Half-spoon Gif of raising hand

Lie on your back and have your partner lie on his side next to you. Have him put one hand over your chest and the awkward arm straight up above you. Awkward arm gone.

3. The pit smellerSmelly Spongebob Gif

Have your partner lie on his side facing towards you. Have him nuzzle his face into your chest. Gently rest your arms over his head, directly aiming your odor into his nasal passages. He’s not thinking about that arm with the assault on his nostrils.

4. The Body SlamPikachu Body Slam

Have your partner lie on his stomach. Lie down flat on top of him, crushing him completely. Let him feel your weight against him.

Why are you wasting your time cuddling anyway? Get to the good stuff.
