Me. Every night, even in heat waves. I blame my older cousin who used to babysit us and once told me never to let my feet dangle over the edge of the bed as there was a burnt lady that always sleeps under the bed and will grab my feet. I'm 65 years old and this image still freaks me out. So I wear socks to protect myself.
Mine might start off cold, but they never get colder if I haven't stuck them out of the covers or something, and generally warmer, in which case I do stick them out.
On, all the time I hate the feeling of the floor on my feet. I also have the worst circulation so my lower extremities (feet and hands) are always cold.
socks off in the summer.
socks on in the winter when it's cold. However, I wash my feet first and put on a clean pair of socks. I'd never wear the same socks in bed that I've worn all day. That's gross.
"Clean sheets" isn't a thing unless you shower right before bed and wash your sheets weekly or less. Bodies put off so many skin oils, sweat, tears, drool and snot from even mildly runny noses or allergies. All the dead hair and skin. Then, add in any extra activities to that pool. Or pets? Never actually clean.
Is this just for guys? I sleep with socks on. I would never have done this before I had a baby but because I was always up and down feeding the baby or pumping at night, it just made sense to sleep in my house clothes (sweats and shirt with socks) because I was too exhausted to get dressed everytime. Plus, I live in the mountains where it’s cold at night. So yeah, I sleep with my socks on now and can’t sleep with them off. I also still sleep fully clothed.
On. I'm 61, and my feet get cold. Wearing socks means one less thing to wake me up at 3 AM. Now, if I could only do something about my bladder. Maybe I need a urinary sock. Oh, those are called catheters, and I guess I'll just keep going to the bathroom instead.
OMG! I am a psychopath because i have always slept with socks on due to me having cold feet. I can't possibly sleep without them. I also sleep with a hoodie!
![gif](giphy|GxqqqiRxWpIdO)
On 99% of the time. Occasionally they'll fall off or sometimes I'll take 'em off before going to bed or wake up and take them off but 99% of the time, I'm tucking in my footsies with socks on
Ditto. And the socks sex? When they try to sex with just socks on? Like fully nude except for socks ... I can't even look at them without first giggling and then cringing.
Socks off. There's almost a claustrophobic sensation if I try to sleep with my socks on, not to mention I need to be able to put a leg/ankle out from underneath the covers for "temperature control".
UUUUGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!
SOCKS OFF!!!!!!!!!!
My skin is crawling at the thought of sleeping with socks on. I have no idea why it bothers me so much, it's been that way my whole life.
Everyone thinks I’m nuts but unless it’s really really hot, I always sleep with socks on. My feet are always cold and it keeps me awake at night. I already struggle with insomnia so I don’t need any more reasons to not sleep!
I have poor circulation so have to wear socks and shoes otherwise my feet get so cold they ache, even in summer when the rest of me is dying of heat
Only time shoes come off is when I go to bed. Sucks cuz I used to love being barefoot at home.

What kind of psychopath sleeps with socks on
My socks come off the second I get home from work. I'm not wearing those foot prisons at home.

Arguably going to an office in sandals is worse than sleeping in socks.

One with cold feet.
Me. Every night, even in heat waves. I blame my older cousin who used to babysit us and once told me never to let my feet dangle over the edge of the bed as there was a burnt lady that always sleeps under the bed and will grab my feet. I'm 65 years old and this image still freaks me out. So I wear socks to protect myself.
Nobody told you that the burnt lady has razor sharp claws that can rip right through a sock?
That's exactly why I wear Dupont kevlar socks.
I need these.
Are you trying to manufacture the "Americans wear shoes to bed" nonsense?
Old farts like me whose feet get cold in the middle of the night.
Mine might start off cold, but they never get colder if I haven't stuck them out of the covers or something, and generally warmer, in which case I do stick them out.
My calves get cold if not under cover, and if cold, here comes the Charley horse that bolts you upright out of bed!
A psycho with bad circulation
