He can’t remember my name


Question Posted Friday November 22 2019, 10:04 pm

There is a guy that I have met at least twice, but he can’t remember my name. At first, I thought maybe I didn’t look familiar. He’ll shake my hand and than ask me my name. He done this twice. Why does he keep forgetting my name.

Honey, It's not that he can't remember your name, he has forgotten your face and that he ever met you. I am sure of this. Why? Because when people forget just the name, they may be embarassed but remember the face and will say Hi and start talking and wait for someone else to call you by name, or they will plain old admit their memory has slipped and they remember meeting you but can't remember the name.

This can happen to all sorts of people and what I will do to help people remember my name is to give them a visual to help remember the name. However I suspect this isn't just about forgetting your name that you are concerned about but had hopes up that he might be interested in you and that is why this feels so critical to you. If this is the case, then either he has an extremely lousy memory, has real true medical memory issues or you are not the type of female/male to catch his eye and interest whether for a friend or more.

It's hard to tell and only he could give you a real reason. My hunch is it's not a slight against you. He may meet a ton of people like we all do daily. Because he's only met you once or twice your name isn't in his brain yet.

As you see him more often or include him you'll find he probably will know your face and name eventually. He could simply be the type of person that is so frazzled that remembering things aren't easy. If he does it over and over past 3-4 times than I would ask him why he forgets who you are or move on if you think he's not worst wasting time on.
