How good are you at remembering Special Dates like Birthdays, anniversaries?

Surprisingly good considering how forgetful I can be with other things. I burn birthdays into my memory without trying. And it gets burned into my brain... permanently. I will have many days year when I think "oh... its Ashley B's birthday today" (I have not seen or spoken to that girl since I was 13 years old).

I can tell you when most of my childhood and high school friend's birthdays are... right now. I haven't ever really thought about this before. But yea... I think I'm weird in how well I can remember many of them. Not all.

There are definitely some blanks from back in the day... that I used to know (I cannot for the life of me, remember when my high school girlfriend's birthday was. That is bugging the shit outta me). This question has been a roller coaster. For me.

I always remember the birthday and anniversary of my partners when I'm with them. Interestingly enough, now that I'm not with them anymore, I can't for the love of my life remember when their birthdays are or our anniversaries are even though I remembered it easily back then. It shows they're no longer important to me.

I'm kind of the Rain Man when it comes to remembering birthdays and anniversaries. I still remember my ex bestie's birthday from 14 years ago April 30th. I still remember my childhood friend's birthday from 21 years ago, Oct. 11th and we haven't been friends since middle school. Once I know it, it's hard to forget the dates.

[PeterLegg91]

I'm the same 😆

[EmmaMary]

I do pride myself in having a reasonably good memory, especially for the immediate family and close friends etc... However there are few distant relatives which unfortunately I would forget if it wasn't for our rather compact calendar!

How about your goodself @thegreenyogi xxx

[thegreenyogi]

@EmmaMary I have a really good memory and I remember things most people don't. Xx

[EmmaMary]

Thank you so very much indeed @thegreenyogi for the MHO. xxx

[thegreenyogi]

@EmmaMary Welcome!! xxx

Hey there, lovebirds! Remembering special dates like birthdays and anniversaries is super important to keep the romance alive and show your partner they're special. I'm all for setting reminders because hey, technology is the real MVP here! 😅 Life gets busy, and a little help never hurts. Personally, I’m guilty of jotting 'em down in every calendar I own. Keeping those key dates fresh in your mind can totally avoid unnecessary drama and keep the love train rolling! Choo choo! 🚂💕

[Zack-Bann]

Let me put it this way, today is my ex’s birthday
I haven’t talked to her in well over a year but I still remember that


I am cursed with a good memory

[thegreenyogi]

You need a new birthday to remember in that case

[Zack-Bann]

I absolutely do 😏

[glennos89]

Terrible. My memory is very selective. I'm terrible at scheduling, remembering things that happened in the past but I do seem to remember large amounts of scientific documents that I studied and am interested in. But don't ask me what I ate yesterday because I forget those things

[AndrésC64]

Terrible. Although I have a very good memory for dates/anniversaries, I don't like them. I hate all the big get-togethers, especially birthday parties. If you are more than 12 years old you are too old for a birthday party. And you essentially have to drag me kicking and screaming if you want to have a party for me. I hate the attention.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Absolutely awful.
And I'd prefer having a wife who also is.

Live in the moment.
Daydream.
Be creative.
Be distracted.
Be too enthralled with living to recall whats on a calendar.

[Tarifa]

Important dates involving people that are close are easily remembered. I have a mental calendar in my head.

Other dates are easily forgotten.

[OneViewpoint]

Oh I suck at it on an epic level. I blame my XY chromosomes. I seriously have to work at it and use my calendar.

[Joshydavid25]

I have a pretty good memory, so I would say that I'm pretty good.. I still remember my exes birthday.. Even birthdays of people I was more "acquainted" with..

[Jay-_-]

Depends if I care or cared about you at one point I'm time but also gotta remember I sometimes forget close friends birthdays so it's never something personal if I forget. I forgot my birthday once...

Lol

[Dongie]

I have a great memory for dates and numbers. I've not one friend that ever remembered mine. Except Lynn Brown in 1997. She six years older than me and was a waitress in Longview, Texas. She is one of a kind.

[katiesmuff]

As long as my desk calendar doesn't disappear I'm almost perfect at remembering b days and etc.

[DancingQueen16]

I'm pretty good at remembering anniversaries and stuff because I usually put it in my calendar

[RavVid]

A man doesn't need to remember because he will be reminded many times from a month or two out.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I have to put them on calendars somewhere for me to remember them.

[Nikki1989]

Terrible. I couldn't care less about those days anyway, so I am always forgetting.

[petitedollbabee]

Bad with birthdays, good with personal anniversaries, but thats why I have a calendar lol.

[strateguy632]

Except one person , i can't remember birthdays

[Bricealan]

@thegreenyogi I'm not good at it and it sucks.

[Phoenix98]

I feel like I can remember important stuff like birthdays and anniversaries.

[Maskx]

If someone is a part of my everyday life than i’ll 100% remember. I remember most of my family and friends that I see every so often. Otherwise I won’t remember.

[Samuel75]

Very terrible.
Sometimes I even forget my own birthdays. 😶

[DrPepper12]

I'd better not lose my data is all I'm sayin

[WonderingManII]

Not good, but if you make a big impression on me, your chances of me remembering will go up.

[Professor-college]

Well I usually remember all these things very easily but even if I don't I try to keep a calendar with reminders

[Dreamclouds]

Very bad... but maybe just bcs most likely they are not important just a product of society.

[ShivaniPandey]

I have a long memory !

[Summeroflove]

Usually fairly well

[exitseven]

Sometimes I have trouble with some of them,

[Fireguy17]

pretty good on most of them.

[Babebytheshore85]

I save them in my calender
