Why not just ask them why they don’t go to bed? No reasonable (or healthy) adult is going to fight sleep ‘for no (apparent) reason, night after night’.

Is this a roommate or significant other that you see nod off ‘night after night’ - but stays up anyway? I’d definitely think there is some sort of mental health issue at play.
