when you wake in the morning - the very first few moments
Posted by SmidgeI think it's my mind not being able to wake - and I just start yelling at whomever is shaking me - lol - it ain't pretty
do you think maybe it is the sudden-ness? maybe if you were eased in to waking up?
sometimes i'm really good in the morning, i surprise people with my cheery attitude and then other times if i'm woken up when my mind hasn't had chance to wake up and i'm expected to get up and do something... god help who ever just woke me up, or anybody near me who tries to speak or even breathe near me lol
maybe people just need to be a little more gentle when waking you up?
I will have to explain this to him - @Tiziani said to sleep alone or separately but I know he will surely getting up before me and trying to wake me up someday - we already know so much about each other and habits that I am in preparation mode as well as trying to change some little things to be more companionable lol - all for the better of course - and we've already discussed that we do NOT want each other to change for the other - we like each other the way we are - warts and all - so maybe he will just laugh at my bear attacks ... I have the feeling that we will find a way to work this out - lol - just wondered if anyone had any tips that I hadn't thought of ...
Posted by TauroMale22yes FFS - I yell and scream when I'm by myself - and if I don't, I am totally walking zombie until I've had the intravenous coffee drip
Lol a bear
Posted by Smidgeand my normal routine is the "ease" - I literally have 4 alarms set for an hour total and then I get up ... geez!

Posted by Nemiliciousgood one, I truly do have to concentrate - my ex-husband was fine - he would just laugh and keep bugging me no matter how much I fussed ... thanks!Posted by tctacalm your mind. meditate or just simple breathing techniques; also tell people ahead of time it's a touchy matter and then keep your distance until you are civil again.Posted by TauroMale22yes FFS - I yell and scream when I'm by myself - and if I don't, I am totally walking zombie until I've had the intravenous coffee drip

Posted by Nemiliciousanother good one - thanks ...Posted by tctalook for same apps that wake you up gently, or soft light alarms that gradually wake you up. it is a terrible way to start the day like you described; all the adrenalin causing acidy moodsPosted by Smidgeand my normal routine is the "ease" - I literally have 4 alarms set for an hour total and then I get up ... geez!

Posted by Virgofemthanks, no I don't want to be ugly ...Posted by tctaI had a roommate like this in college. She was some kind of ugly
ok so here goes
I'm a royal bytch to get up in the morning - I just want to go back to sleep and I don't want to be bothered or nagged by anyone to get me going - this is not a good trait for my new Libra who hasn't even slept over yet or even close - I guess I'd better warn him ahead of time - but my last Libra woke me up in the middle of the night and I almost lost him. He said I was mean, I said yes, I can be a bit of a bear when awoken out of hibernation ... wtf - does anyone have any suggestions I could try?
going to bed and waking up. She wanted total silence going to sleep and didn't want to be talked to until she was dressed and was getting her books. Needless to say, I moved. I think everyone needs to find someone that respects their routine. Find someone ok with your bedroom routine. Someone who won't take offense. You don't like to be woken up before you want to wake up, that's okay.

Posted by NemiliciousI don't always yell and I'm not aggressive, and then I do get very quiet with a side of whine ... I'll look into the chest massage thing thanks!
never an early bird myself but i never yell around or get aggressive; just verrrry quiet in the mornings until the blood starts pumping. there is a massage technique you can practise on your chest while lying down still to start energizing yourself
Posted by MontgomeryI had one set in the next room that was like that - and I still hit the snooze and crawled back into bed ...Posted by tctaI do that too.Posted by Smidgeand my normal routine is the "ease" - I literally have 4 alarms set for an hour total and then I get up ... geez!

Oh man.. My ex Taurus was the same way. He drove me nuts. I could not wake him up for anything. If I did, he'd get super angry. But really, he didn't like to be rushed for ANYTHING..not just in the morning. We were late everywhere we went. Lol
The thing is if he ever wanted anything in the middle of the night or early morning (like sex or to talk) I always woke up and did not get upset....but try and do that to him... Nope. ?
I've learned that Taurus just like their routine...break that and you will anger the bull. It's hard for a libra like me, because taking me out of my routine is fun..not a bad thing (I'm also a morning person.. Who loves late night adventures as well. ? Like please wake me up for something fun, to have sex, or to watch the sunrise in the morning. I don't care..lol
I would just say warn him. Let the man know! lol I wish my ex was just more upfront about what he liked and didn't like. That way I didn't get pissed off because he's mad that I took him out of his routine, when I wouldn't have thought it was such a big deal to do so. It made me feel like he never wanted to have fun with me (if drinking with his friends was part of his routine, he didn't care being up late or going places, but if I spontaneously came up with something, forget it) or if something bad happened, I felt like I wouldn't be able to rely on him... And sadly later in our relationship, I wasn't able to. 😢
We basically slept separately towards the end of our marriage. So when I did have to wake him for an emergency, he yelled at me.. It was irritating to say the least.
I'm not saying that's you, but if it's happened before (almost losing a guy over this), then it could happen again. Just tell him, you don't like to be woken up or to bring you a cup of coffee and just nudge you awake and say.."I have coffee for you."
Two of my best friends are Taurus women and so is my Aunt.. They ALL need coffee before anyone can speak to them, or expect some thrashing of items, as they get ready, and yelling.. Lol

Posted by RosaknowsyaI do get a normal enough amount of sleep - I just don't like to have to get up lolPosted by tcta

He said I was mean, I said yes, I can be a bit of a bear when awoken out of hibernation ... wtf - does anyone have any suggestions I could try?
What if you went to bed earlier ? That way you wake up early naturally with enough sleep?
I apparently snore like a bear. Been told my snoring "sucks the curtains off the wall?"
No cure for mine. Tried it all, breathe rite strips, benadryl...
What time do you normally go to bed and when do you have to be up?

Posted by Virgofemyou are probably right - I should have told the last Libra - he was in shock apparently - I guess we both have ptsd lol ... any potential situations will be in the future - I'm just trying to really start to find a way to ease up more easily myself before "interference" lolPosted by tcta? maybe Libra won't give a hoot. If you've warned him...he knows what's up .... so to avoid it, won't do it. I know, too logical. But nothing worse for me to say something and then someone do the exact thing I told them I hated. Let's hope Libra gets it.Posted by Virgofemthanks, no I don't want to be ugly ...Posted by tctaI had a roommate like this in college. She was some kind of ugly

Posted by jane84oh crap - first of all so sorry for your break up - I love the Taurus Libra connection so that makes me sad to hear ... and also, I didn't realize this could be a Taurus thing OMG ... I must get over these types of things - yes, I do want to be woke up for anything but I don't want to be a startled bear and frightened people - geez .... hahaha on the trashing around and yelling if provoked - good lord that sounds familiar ... yes, I had better start warning this gentle man - and prepare him; but I feel I must do my part to help alleviate some of that too. I'm sorry your ex didn't see it that way but that is the way I am if I know it's not a good trait ... thank you ...

Ahh, understood. : ) I thought you were the Libra with that comment. I'm guessing you're a virgo?
If that's how you are built then it's who you are. That can be lovable too. You could try to make a conscious decision to not react butttttt.. that is easier said then done -- especially if you wake up seeing red and ready to rage.

@tcta
Yeah I see this pair often and I have many in my life.
But being honest will help. And trying to see it from their point of view sometimes too...like the reason why he has to wake you up.
And it's not a big deal anymore, my ex was the most stubborn Taurus on the planet.. Lol You don't seem that way.

hungryyyyy as hell
when I first wake up
It use to be worse in my teens and early 20s. Now I just get up and don't really care about it. Normally I sleep till I literally leave, which some might find odd. Normally people like to get up and relax a bit, but I jump out of bed, rush out of my house, and get to a Redbull as fast as possible.

Posted by Nemiliciousthank you, I will try the tapping on the chest - I do the stretching but not every morning so that may be one thing I can try to habit better - I do love the stretching ... I remember my mother saying I was like a cat stretching and loving it ...Posted by tctait's a gentle tapping on your chest in a circular motion; sets off some positive vibes. i don't do this every morning but i do it when i wake from a weird dream or nightmare; it helps calm me down. also stretching; in bed is awesome for your muscles and bloodflow.Posted by NemiliciousI don't always yell and I'm not aggressive, and then I do get very quiet with a side of whine ...

Posted by jane84thanks, and I hope you are ok now - I know there are people who are just so set in their ways and not flexible. I have flexibility for which I am grateful. I'm always trying to just be better for me and others as well - I enjoy working together in a relationship and this Libra seems to be a blessing so I want to enjoy and be happy for once ...
