How would a stranger remember where he saw you 3 months ago?

I was just messaged on Instagram by a guy who saw me at the party 3 months ago, he even told me what I dressed. I was with my friends there and didn’t talk with anyone else. How would he remember such details and my face at all?

Some people can do that. I can do that; that's one of the reasons my bosses have hired me.

I can’t. But I’ve sometimes been approached by people claiming they saw me 1-2 years ago somewhere and they remembered me. That was awkward cause I didn’t know their names and I just didn’t remember any of them.

That has got to be frustrating! 🙂 I get it even if I don't experience it.

People only forget things when they stop thinking about them 😉

hmm well you did look quite unique i suppose. a recognizable face.

also some people just have great photographic memories and can remember faces easily.

Sounds like you made a lasting impression on him.

That's not unusual to remember that.
