Have you ever fallen asleep during a speech?

I know someone (my ex-girlfriend) who has but I haven’t.

If a teacher's monologue counts, certainly!

There's no sleep like class sleep. Five minutes feels like an eight hour rest.

One time, but someone was kind enough to wake me up so I could finish it.

You must’ve been really tired

Yes. During all of them. Sitting still and trying to pay attention to someone talking means sleepy time for me.

That doesn't sound normal to me. I know the feeling of heavy eyelids in such a situation whenever I haven't slept well, so if that's a regular occurrence for you, I'd look into trying to get better rest.

Like mid talking or listening? I've done both, but I want to know the question.

(It's easy to fall asleep when listening, but you need to be a special kind of tired to fall asleep mid sentence, or even better, dream-speak a few nonsense sentences)
