What makes someone memorable?


Connection.
And that comes in many forms.
I'll never forget my uncle who stayed with us when I was a child. He was funny and he spent ages peeling and shaping potatoes into funny things before frying them, just for me. And he would buy a creme egg especially for the dig. (Choc bad for dogs not a thing then)
My bestest friend when I was around 10. We liked pretending to be cat burglars practising climbing trees and walls and breaking into windows (my own house lol) and picking locks. And we got caught my police on the school roof. Fun times!
My ex husband. There is good memories but the negative out shadow them now so I don't like to think about him.
My bestest gay friend after my marriage. We were like soul mates!
My current ex-FB-now-friend guy. Another that feels deeper than just ordinary. Maybe soul mate. Teaching me about love and emotion. Complicated. But no matter what happens his impact on me this past year is significant. Even had tattoo to commemorate.
So yes. Connections and special memories.
How they make me feel. Good, bad, whatever... I remember every single person who made me feel something. All of my memories are associated with a feeling.
I remember one time when a family member drowned. I had jumped in to try and help them (I know that was not the proper safety training, but I was a kid). I was soaking wet and we were waiting at the hospital. No one had noticed that I was shivering (obviously they were distraught), but a nurse did and brought me a warm blanket. She kind of fussed over me, and I remember feeling so comforted and like someone cared. Obviously she was a nurse and it was her job, but the way she did it was compassionate and kind.

Someone that you both loved each other and played and joked around with until both of us had tears running down our faces.
Someone that was right there next to me holding my hand while I was in the emergency room.
Someone who went out in a very bad neighborhood and walked to the store to buy me some extra strength Tylenol because I had a fever.
Someone that had the florist deliver me a beautiful dozen yellow rose's because they were my favorite and he knew they would make me smile.😊 He loved my smile more than anything. 💖
Someone that baked me chocolate chip cookies 😋 🍪 for several days in a row because I was sick 🤢 in bed craving them.
Someone who had my back and protected me with his life!
He is very much missed and remembered by me because he did all of those things for me and more things like praying for me every night.
Sadly he passed away last year in September and I really miss him and loved the way he loved me.
RIP Patrick John 🧸💔🍪 ✝️
There personality, sense of humour, all their little quirks and interests. Making good memories with people.
Whenever I think about my grandma it's usually because I see a book, flim or tv show I'd know she'd had loved if she was still around. She had a wicked sense of humour and was very witty something I inherited from her and sometimes people say to me "God you remind me of your grandma with that witt you've got" and it makes me smile. I have many funny memories with her growing up.
I remember being on a caravan holiday with her and my family and they had a disco on. There was a very rude elderly lady there and my grandma was sitting next to a elderly man shed made friends with on the holiday and was saying how much of a "rude bitch" this other woman was and pointed her out to this man. This response was "that's my wife" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Someone becomes memorable by embodying authenticity, kindness, and resilience. Those who are genuine, act with compassion, and face adversity with courage often leave lasting impressions. Passionate individuals radiate energy that draws others in, while a strong sense of humor brings joy and connection. Wisdom, offered through insightful perspectives, can be unforgettable, as can unique talents that inspire awe. Integrity—living by one’s values, even under pressure—also marks someone as exceptional. Ultimately, it’s how a person makes others feel, often through small acts of kindness or inspiring confidence, that truly anchors them in memory.

There are some who made you feel worst, and some are worth remembering when they do made you feel good about yourself which is likely to be remembered and fondly.

Many things can make someone memorable I sometimes remember people I didn't know just because they were hot or looked at me deeply.. lol
Nothing really. Things can make people harder to forget but eventually everyone will be forgotten.
They have a quality worth remembering.

I do not think I can list the intangibles.
