My Epilepsy Disclosure on a Date

funny story to share.. I went on a date a while back. Also to preface I like to tell people i’m seeing/out with about my condition just in case. So im out with this guy, and toward the end of the date im thinking to myself let me tell this guy i have epilepsy and see what he says. So i tell him and he goes “ohhh okay” i said “yeah, so you know what epilepsy is and seizures and all that?” He legit responded so excited and confidently, “ Ohh yeah yeah i got an epi pen in my car so i would just run out and get it! Epi pens would help a seizure, right?” I busted out laughing and i felt so bad😂Because not everyone is aware if what it is. I responded “i’m not allergic to flashing lights, they just make me start twitching/seizing and epi pen would definitely make it worse😭” Let’s just say there was not a second date nor did we talk after that 😂
