Emotional Sleep Issues

I cannot figure out why I am so needy during sleep. I am in need of a partner who allows me to be close and snuggle but I have a partner who doesn't like to be close and snuggle during sleep. It is the one thing we argue about and it has just about broken an otherwise wonderful relationship up. I'm curious if this is something I am supposed to fix in myself so I do not need that kind of sleep or if I should dump a great partner and look for one that meets my needs with sleep?

Kitten, I can relate to your need for an emotional connection, maybe we have something in common. Tell me about yourself, if that's allowed. I'm new here.
