Jsc: It is really funny! My SO is like this. On the rare occasion that I’ll wake up before them, I’ll wait for them to open their eyes/wake up. But if I ask them a question immediately when they open their eyes, they won’t react right away. I think it’s ‘cause they’re not quite awake yet.
I’m quite the opposite. I always joke that I have an old person’s eyes because they’ll get tired before the rest of me does. And they’re the last part of me to wake up too. (Mind and rest of my body is awake before my eyes want to open up.)
Though how do you judge being awake? The only way you can really tell I’m sleeping is my breathing pattern. Because otherwise, you can ask me a question while I’m sleeping and I usually will answer. My eyes are closed. But my eyes get tired easily and are often closed?
