My boyfriend and I had a wonderful dinner.

After we ate, he hugged me and brought me to his bed.

He got a heatpad out, and placed it on my stomach while cuddling me.

I fell asleep in less than 5 minutes.

I typically sleep after 10-15 minutes.

Why did the heatpad knock me out so quickly?

You need a control experiment. Try sleeping with a heatpad without your boyfriend before you assume it's the heat pad.

Alright, will make an update post in a few weeks with the heatpad control.

Yeah. Some people sleep better with a cuddle buddy, or if they feel safe or content. Probably wasn’t the heating pad
