Falling asleep on the highway

Hello, I am having a problem with my partner waking me up all hours of the night. I do not know what to do, no matter how much I ask him not to wake me up during a work night, he will not stop. Once I am awake it is very hard for me to fall back asleep whether we have sex or not. Even if we have sex right before we go to sleep and he will still wake me up!


I have told him this is dangerous because I am not getting enough sleep and constantly falling asleep on the highway during the morning commute. I even stopped spending work nights at his place for a bit- but he just started doing it again. Please help!
