not recognizing skydivers I've met before/jumped with

Recommended Posts

I travel around quite a bit and forgetting people happens a lot. I don't sweat it too much, usually I just say something like "I'm Krisanne, I know we've jumped together before but I'm drawing a blank on your name." Or you just fake it till you overhear someone else saying their name. :D

Funny thing is that once you jog my memory I can usually remember tons of details about the person or what we'd talked about when we met, but the names often escape me.

Plus, being very happily married for 30 years, I tend to forget attractive women's names as quickly as I can. ;):D



What is really embarrassing is to be hitting on a cute chick in a nightclub, when she looks at you funny and says:

"Don't you remember me?"
:$

Now in my defense, she was 16 when we dated, and 26 when this happened, and had put on a little weight in the 10 years since she dumped me, but was still cute.[:/]
