Yes I do hate that. I tend to get migraines when I am startled out of my sleep. It really makes me feel grouchy if it is a telemarketer or a bill collector calling me. I now have my phone blocking all these junk calls after the first ring. They think that they are being sneaky because the next time they call back it is with a different number. I have tried to work with bill collectors before and they are unworkable. I tell them I can only do twenty and they say we need at least 50...my reply I only have 20. We need at least 50 (broken record starts here.) I can only give what I have. They start getting rude and I hang up on them then they call back and I block them.

I hate it a lot. Somehow, some people don't understand when you say that you'll sleep and you don't want to be bothered. It is so irritating.

Yes, i hate it too to be roused from sleeping. My mother in-law once roused me from sleep,because it's already dinner time. So, i requested that next time, when i am sleeping and not answering the knock on the door, it means i am sleeping . I prefer to sleep than eat, specially when i am too sleepy. My husband knows that and he respects it, just as i respect him too when he sleeps so soundly.

It depends what for, and when. There's nothing worse, than having just fallen asleep, late at night, and being woken up by someone being drunk and loud (being a uni student, this happens a lot!) but if I'm having a nap or something in the middle of the day and someone wakes me up, I still get irritated but not really AT that person in particular since it's sort of my fault for sleeping in the middle of the day if you see what I mean? If I've just fallen asleep, and my boyfriend kisses me and wakes me up, I'm not grumpy (and I can usually get back to sleep soon anyways) or if my mum wakes me up to tell me we're going for dinner or to do something fun then that's okay too. If I'm woken up by someone being inconsiderate though, I get really mad - like if someone's yelling in my house instead of just walking down the stairs, or if someone has music on loudly late at night etc. I don't think it's just you, I think lots of people get angry at being woken up, even if it's in the morning after a great night's sleep!

i hate it too... sometimes even i know someone trying to wake me i often pretend that i was still asleep, most of the time they stop bothering me and i can go back to my sleep... what is more irritating is that if your friend make jokes by try to wake you up so hard but after you awake they said 'i thought you want to sleep' then they left....

This is definitely one of my pet peeves! Sometimes I get difficulty in sleeping. And when I finally fall asleep, someone would wake me up, especially through phone calls. I know I sometimes forget to put it in silent mode before I go to sleep. But I just wanna make it ring just in case of emergencies. Haha. So yes, I hate it when someone disturbs my slumber.
