Ok let's add another variable to this...AGE
Ellen, if you don't mind, how old are you?
See when I was in my late teens and early 20s I felt totally ok with spending the night with the other sex and it could be totally platonic. Now at 32 (married and 32).... there is no way I could do that. I don't think it is the marriage thing but I could be wrong.
Could it be that once we "Grow up" we realize that we might be sending the wrong signals? Or do we not trust ourselves enough?

I'm sorry, I still stand my original statement that I can't share a
bed with a member of the opposite sex that I'm not dating. I don't
think I'm alone in this, but obviously if I'm not spending the evening
with my SO, traveling or otherwise than I must be alone by definition.
