yesterday only my cousin and me were discussing about her job problem . she is looking for job change and she asked me that you have worked in HCL ( I worked in its BPO Sector for 3 months only) so how you got the job if you can then get me a job aswell there.She said she is ready to do night shift for which her parents were against two years ago but now they see its not bad so she wanna give call center a try. Actually i joined via a friend who was already working over there, i met that guy in a discotheqe and we hit off quite well and became good friends, he asked me to join in HCL and as i was not doing anything so i joined. Now while talking to my cousin about this guy , how he got me the job i was trying to remember his face.He had a deep cut scar under his throat which he got in a accident but i couldn't remember was it on his right side or left , i am still not sure whether he used to wear glasses or not? lol i forgot how the used to look like just in one and half year.
Maybe its right when one is out of sight then he is out of mind too

hello sis,
If you haven't much acquaintances and just met few times,i am sure the possibility of forgetting someone features is there.
But if you constantly sees each other for many times,then you would probably remember that person.
Have a good day

Hi. I think remembering a face is relative to how deep the relationship was. I dont say it should be romantically but it is something strong. I think in your case though he was instrumental in you getting into your present job, you were the one who distant yourself from the guy. So maybe that's the reason why you forgot his Dave. However, on the side of the guy, am sure he still remembers you. In other occasions when maybe it was only time that separated two people even just associates, they still usually remembers each other. Have a good day!

That actually depends how important the person is in your life. The person is not a part of your life he/she is easy to forget. And in your case the boy wasnt really a part of your life, so out of sight our mind did really work!

It happens so easily…We lose touch with someone and it is all too simple to forget small details about their appearance or the sound of their voice. It happened to me when I spoke to my ex on the phone not too long ago. I’d had no contact with him for around fifteen years and I would not have recognized his voice at all although at the time we separated we had been together for over eleven years. I like to think that although the details slip our minds the essence of the person probably never will if that person was someone relevant in our life.

We always associate this expression with love. When we are far away frm our lover, we tend to lose the love we have, but I don't totally believe it.
With regards to that person you met, I think he just didn't matter that much to you as to live a lingering memory for a lifetime. I had a friend I met three years ago and we spent only about six months together but until now I still remember his face vividly. We haven't seen each other for two years but we do communicate once in awhile.
I can also recall my fist crush's face and everything about him though I haven't seen him for ages. I think it's because this people matter much to me and has given me memories that are worth treasuring a lifetime.

I was not in love with this guy, for me he was always a friend but since he started getting ideas about that we are kinda couple so i distanced myself from him.As for first crush i don't remember at all how he used to look like or his habit.I just remember he was in my school but i never told him about my crush on him.With first boyfriend i am still in touch as we are good friends.

You are still too young to be forgetful of faces. But i know, once you meet him again, you will surely remember him. His face cannot be that remembered by you because maybe you are not that close to him. Should he been, you would always remember his face even when out of sight. Am i right?

yeah sure i will be able to recognize him actually we were not very close friend, our friendship lasted for four months and as i got know that he is thinking about me romantically then i myself distanced myself.I never told him that i am interested in him as i never was but as he knew that i am single so he thought our friendship could go a level up. I just wanted to be friends so i distanced myself from him , we have each others number but we haven't talked for about 5 months
