AItA for not wanting to go out on date night?

A little back story. I have a bad case of mono. Not sure if I got it from my new girlfriend who doesn't think she ever had it or my nephew who had it last fall, or some rando sneaking in my food and giving it to me, whatever the case I got it bad.

At it's worst I was sleeping 20 hours a day, jaundice skin, inflamed spleen, beach ball neck, and had trouble lifting anything heavier than a Harry Potter book.

I am getting better and I have actually been back to work, but if no one keeps me up I fall asleep 4pm. On Friday my girlfriend and I went on a date night and I ended up falling asleep at the store we were shopping in around 630. Today she wanted us and her daughter to go to a movie at 4. I figured if I drank soda I could stay awake and be caffeinated enough to drive home after without falling asleep at the wheel.

So we went out and had some ice cream. While getting ice cream I went to the theatre website to get tickets, but it turns out the movie isn't until 5. I told her I didn't feel comfortable staying out that late yet. At this point I am already tired enough to fall asleep and I am just forcing myself to stay awake because I want to spend time with them. I offer to hang out until the movie starts but she doesn't want to. She suggests skipping the movie at the theatre, driving back to town renting a movie and watching something at home.

If we did this, the movie would still not start till after 5 but now we would have a kid who was told we were going to the theatre and then got denied that we have to watch the movie at home with. So I would rather cut out and go to bed at this point. We make plans to go see dumbo this weekend and I ask her if we can hang out tomorrow, but instead she gives me attitude and insists I don't want to hang out with her so she will just see me later.

IDK, I see it as I don't want to fall asleep at the wheel and die on the way home, but she makes it seem like I am an uninterested asshole leading her on.

Am I being an asshole here?
