Do you sleep on the ground or on a matress?

i actually took the mattress out of my room and sleep on the floor in my room. i lay down my sleeping bag and use that as my mattress. everyone who goes into my room think i'm weird but it works for me. 🙂
 
Why the F*CK would you sleep on the floor, and why aren't more people suprised by this admission?

Beds are expensive and take up lots of room. 😉

So are cars, but they're a necessity in many (nearly all) parts of the country.
 
i switch off, depending on if my back hurts or not....either way, my bed is just a matress on the ground, no boxspring set or anything....
 
Some people need a firm (read: hard) surface due to their back problems. I am one of the people who gets back aches if I sleep on a soft mattress. At the moment I have the firmest mattress I could find, but at times it actually helps me to sleep on the floor (it's carpeted). Not like one is uncivilized because of how they prefer to sleep.
 
I use to sleep on the floor, but my girlfriend kept complaining of the bruises she'd get during sex so I decided to take pity on her and get a bed for her. When she's bad I still make her sleep on the floor though.
 
Suckers. I don't sleep at all. You guys have no idea what great 4:00 AM television you're missing!

In Japan and other parts of the world it's very common. Often at most a bedroll is used. Many people in the world must share one room for sleeping, cooking, bathing and entertaining, a bed would be too space consuming for them.

We sleep on a queen size futon mattress.. on the floor.

Does that count?

ps. people who call the floor the ground annoy me.

Nice. 😉

futon- an incredibly uncomfortable couch that becomes an even more uncomfortable bed.😉
 
a queen futon on the futon frame for me, sometimes i sleep on it when its like a couch, its just as conf
 
Mostly I sleep on a bed because it is the social norm.
Sleeping on the floor or on the ground takes some getting used to but for me, I feel better when I do. I don't have back problems, it's just nicer.
I bought the firmest mattress I could, but it was also very cheap. I've had it for only a few months and already I can feel the springs through the fabric of the mattress. Time to get some padding. Or go back to sleeping on the floor.

In my current room there's not enough floor to sleep on with a full sized bed in here. When I get my house I'll have 3 bedrooms and I might just turn this bed into a guest bed.
 
A good futon on tatami (tatami is not just rice mat on a concrete floor) is supposedly very comfortable...it's one of my requirements for our visit, mostly because I won't have an option.
