And names, aghh! A (long) while ago, when I was a TV journalist/presenter I had an excuse because people recognised me and I had to second-guess myself as to whether I'd actually met them. Now, I guess I can blame (middle) age.Kathy - yinyangmotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11438958678336755752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615960162747995029.post-66888774314157878372014-04-12T16:16:43.739+10:002014-04-12T16:16:43.739+10:00You know I didn't even notice it until you poi...You know I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out.

I'm always the one reminding him of people's names when we are out.

And when I say good with faces, I can see someone in an obscure place and think to myself "Gee, I know that person" and then forget about it, then a few hours later a lightbulb will go off over my head and I suddenly remember exactly how I know that person and it's usually that they worked in a store I once went to, or I served them once working in the bookshop or something weird and totally random like that. It's very weird, and totally frustrating while I wait for my subconscious to spew forth the answer.Kylie Purtellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00185153539010825877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615960162747995029.post-61551666449684751472014-04-11T21:24:01.443+10:002014-04-11T21:24:01.443+10:00I usually know a face - but shocking at names and ...I usually know a face - but shocking at names and so have to avoid people on occasion when I know I should know a name and I just can't call it up... usually about an hour later (when the occasion has long past) bing the name pops into my head - hopeless. More recently I have become worse and I think that's because I have 2 kids at school now and multiple after school activities which means the pool of faces out there has just doubled and my poor brain isn't keeping up. It's only downhill from here isn't it?? cripes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14474504456525893239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615960162747995029.post-2970751711671861182014-04-11T21:10:57.947+10:002014-04-11T21:10:57.947+10:00I am totally like this!

I am hopeless and suffer from lack of self-confidence. I think I know their name but don't want to look like a total idiot if I get it wrong, so I talk myself out of it! Hopeless!
