[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a friend in a group of friends suggests a meet up at a restaurant they know you don't like, do you just not go?

For instance, Sarah texts our group of 7 women suggesting a friend dinner. Everyone agrees on 7pm on December 5th. Then a bunch of restaurants get suggested, including a seafood restaurant. You are allergic to shellfish and don't care for fish.

Do you just decline the get together or do you eat a huge lunch and then just get drinks or a small salad?

Are you right to be put off by this when everyone knows your allergy?

I'm trying real hard to not be offended here.[/quote]

I am allergic to crustaceans and had a severe reaction 
smelling airborne proteins from cooking shellfish.  Allergies should be taken into consideration when selecting the restaurant.

Taking Benadryl isn’t the same as anaphylactic shock and while it’s always important to be mindful of allergies you are an adult and can take precautions on your own.  Your allergies should not dictate what everyone else can and cannot do as a group.  Maybe everyone else likes this restaurant and wants to go and are leaving it up to you to choose what works for you, go or don’t your choice.  The alternative is not inviting you how would that make you feel?[/quote]
