This is all I ever wanted in life. To be treated as human by a woman. Unfortunately that'll never happen. Hate this chud life.I've never had too many bad experiences with dates when it comes to people minding that I'm a t1d. There were some that didn't know much about it and thus probably felt a little overwhelmed or just had a lot of questions.
I recently started dating a girl that was super interested in the whole topic, but didn't treat me like someone with a disability and rather as a person who happens to have to take a little more time in certain situations. She had no problems with anything at all.
Foreward a few weeks of dates and having a good time and I spent a night at her place. After we had a wonderful evening together, we got tired and went to bed. There she told me with a smile on her face, that if I ever get low during the night I should just open the drawer of the nightstand, which of course I instantly did. She put some sweets as well as a chocolate bar and some cola in there. I thought of it as a (in the literal sense) sweet gesture and a huge green flag.
Some days later we went to get some groceries which reminded me that I needed to get some batteries for my Ypsopump, but I forgot to buy them. Little did I know that the next time I went to her place and open the drawer I would find a pack of batteries in there as well. That brought me close to tears. I've never had someone treat me that caring and mindful on their own during a dating phase.
I don't really know why I want to post this, but I kinda of felt like I needed to share it. It just feels good to know that there are people who are willing to go this path with you even tho they know it comes with its flaws.
I wish all of you a happy new year!
