#no face recognition

[silbernerwolf]

As someone with very little face recognition, hair, clothes and body movement are the key factors for me to recognise people.

And I can tell you, seeing someone, on your way from work, who's looking like your ex, is not fun. Everyday I'm faced with the question, is this the random person or my ex?

My God I have terrible memory for faces too! I once shared apartment with four girls and after being flatmates for FOUR months I still had trouble recognizing any of them on the street. That's why people think I'm rude bitch because I don't say hello to them on the street but I'm just trying to figure out where I know that person from and I have really shit sight too and no glasses because poor collage student and all that. Tough life huh?

I feel you so hard. I once didn’t recognize my doctor. I’d seen her twice at that point, and she walked in the room, and my husband had to tell me who it was.

I also spent freshman year of college NEVER figuring out the names of two women on my dorm floor because they had such similar personalities the fact they looked completely different didn’t help me at all.

It’s the worst sometimes. Like, just, WHY.
