I remember just about everything about anyone. Birthdays, middle names, where I met them, stories they tell me, everything.
Obviously it happens with people I like or are friends with but now I just remember everything.
It makes me look like a stacker.
Does anyone else remember everyone's birthday or other weird facts? Is this at all normal?
OHMYGOD THANK YOU!! i thought i was going mental or something... i have the exact same problem and people think i'm wierd because i bring up something they told me yonks ago. I just say that i'm like an elephant and that they are weird because they dont remember what they did last summer.because i know... yet i dont remember anything i need for school exams?
Yea I think so. I remember everything from the time I was about 2 years old
yeah like I still remember what my friend and teacher wore on the first day of first grade...and I'm a sophomore in college now. I also remember most of the conversations that I've had with people. I try not to show because it's weird when people remember EVERYTHING you tell them
I remeber so much rubbish, and the worst part is, when I remind someone of something they said, they never recall it and say i'm lying or something.
It's so annoying but I guess it has it's positive sides, it's something unique I guess. Wouldn't life be boring if we we're all the same
Yeah I do this. It's particularly bad when you meet a person you've met once before and they can't remember your name or sometimes having met you yet you can remember everything about them. I've learnt that most people don't have this sort of memory so I act like I'm the same but secretly I have this store of information that one day I will use to my advantage...
I remember alot of trivial crap and i have the ability to get an A on a test w/o studying, but that's if i pay attention.
im like this with number plate numbers on cars (license plates if youre american) seriously i hav tens of thousands of them stored in my head, i know if i have seen the car before if it drives past, i remember everything about the car and the people in it, its great i think i have used this to my adavntage. it creeps people out when i tell them their number plate lol
I think that's very cool. I'm forgetful (I even forget my best friends' birthdays!), so I'm always envious of people with a strong memory.
Yes!
I think I've lost some of this ability due to repressing it thinking it wasn't normal, but yeah..
Birthdays, middle names, conversations.. I even remember the typos people make in online conversations. If I'm given the information, I remember it. I remember all my birthday parties. I even remember the entire phone number of a girl I was best friends with when I was little and haven't phoned for about 8 years o_O
Then I have friends who have known me for years who have had to ask me when my birthday was several times each year... I think *they* are the weird ones, personally :)
But I'm no good at remembering homework or what to bring into college ¬_¬
yeah,u guys are all right i can remember people i see on the buses, train and anywhere, what they did it's really embarassing when u go up to people and they just can't remember u, i wish i can use this to do something useful for myself.
I can't remember everything but I remember word for word conversations and hand emotions people make when they say things.
I think it is normal, and its a lucky trait to have.
