Do you find it sweet or creepy when someone remembers the little things about you?

Question

Like how many ice cues you want in your water, or how many texts/calls you guys have exchanged.

I find it super sweet! That's one thing that my boyfriend did a few times before we were dating and definitely worked in his favour. We'd go for coffee together after class regularly. One time, we both had our drinks and were about to sit down outside when he said he forget to grab something, he'd be right back. I waited while he went inside for a bit, then returned with a cup of ice water. As he handed it to me, he said he remembered I'd mentioned that I'm a total coffee fiend, and that when at home I have this thing that I always have a cup of water at hand with my coffee because I hate the taste of coffee remaining in my mouth, plus am always scared of having coffee breath. :P

Sometimes my brothers and friends remembers some little things I have said or done or like, etc and it warms my heart when they recall those things.

Specially when I dont even expect them to remember it.

It's suprising, so yeah, I find it sweet.

It depends. I am a very observant person who has a high recall for small or otherwise insignificant details... sometimes I find myself on the verge of mentioning the information to the person in question, and I stop myself because it might seem "creepy."

Here's a theory: Creepiness of behavior is inversely proportional to the level of subjective attractiveness of the behaver to the observer.

Ex: Two people on the fringes of your social group remember every single detail about you. One dresses like your ideal mate, and is attractive to boot. The other dresses like themselves and is of below-average attractiveness. If you are told to assign the labels creepy and sweet to either, the more attractive one will probably get sweet, and the less attractive one will probably get stuck with creepy, am I wrong?

in my opinion, creepy/not creepy is a gut reaction to how trustworthy someone seems. So yeah, it depends.

The more genuinely attracted you are to someone the more they can get away with these little things without you really holding it against them. There is a point though where it becomes creepy regardless of how you feel about them. There's definitely a bias though. People you aren't genuinely attracted to are going to come off a lot creepier a lot sooner than those that you are.

If you make a conscious effort to memorize stuff like that, I think it's a bit creepy (unless it's your bf/gf). It's also awkward if you remember things that someone has no recollection of ever telling you (most likely because they were drunk at the time).

What people don't always realize, is that some people just remember stuff like that without trying (even if they suck at remembering names/dates/etc) - it's just the way their brain is wired. I sometimes feel like I have to censor my memories a little bit, and pretend not to remember the little throwaway remarks that people have made, because otherwise they find it creepy.

It's different when someone cares about something because you like it, and when someone just wants to know everything even when it really doesn't benefit either of you. Someone who knows how I like my food? Cute. Someone who knows how long I sleep on average? Weird.

Depends on who it is. If it is my boyfriend or a good friend I think it is sweet, but if it is someone I am not close to, I find it odd.

It depends on the person & what they are remembering, but going off your two examples, NO that's creepy for anyone to be that detail oriented. Borderline stalker!
