DH fell asleep after an emotionally draining day. He intended to go to maariv 20 minutes ago. Do I wake him up? I know it's not my job and I tried once but am not sure if I should try again...

Absolutely not. No. It's none of your business.

You have to know him. Do you think he'd want you to?

This is so personal lol. My husband I would because he would be really upset to miss maariv, but really you have to know your own husband

I would ask, "do you wanna be woken for maariv?" But then again, my husband is the type who can fall right back asleep easily.

It is your business, because he's your husband. But that doesn't mean you should wake him, it means you should think about what's best for him, including what he'd want you to do.
Also, where is he sleeping? Is he on the couch or somewhere else and is anyway going to wake up at some point, and then feel bad that he didn't daven? If that's the case, it may be better to wake him. But if he's in bed, it's very different.

He woke up on his own but will actually have the opportunity to take your advice and ask him if he wants to be woken in general. I feel like I'm a newlywed all over again with this one 😬

I do, because he'd be upset if I didn't wake him.

Good idea to ask, in general. Over Chag, I knew DH wanted to be woken for minyanim, so I would wake him gently, ask if he wanted to wake up, and let him decide. But he can fall back asleep easily.

I would wake my husband up because he would be very upset to have missed davening with a minyan.

I wouldn't if he can catch a shomer shabbos minyan. If not lightly tap him and say maariv is in 5 min, don't shake the guy. From there he can make his own decision. Hope he feels better

If I intended to do something, then fell asleep from exhaustion, and my husband didn’t wake me for it I’d be very upset..

It depends if he was expecting to go or is particular to never miss a minyan - did he intentionally go to sleep, or just nodded off on the sofa. Also, I am assuming there is no other minyan than what you would wake him for, its either the last or only minyan in the area.

I think that from a halachik stand point a person that's sleeping isn't responsible for anything so it would be possibly fine... of course ask your lor, might be mistaken.
