She tells me so-and-so has the kids. I don't hear much of what she says. I was scanning my brain for any memory. Nothing. I admit defeat, "I'm sorry, I don't recognize you." She looks at me blankly, "I'm your neighbor." I stare at her, still confused. "Across the street." she adds. It clicks. She's my neighbor's daughter who lives with them. I've only seen her a few times. The rest of the conversation is awkward. I still don't know her name. I decided I need to sell my house and move.

I lived in, Crete for 5 years , my brother came to visit for a week. The first morning he was there we walked into the village for a coffee & each local person greated me with Καλημέρα (Good morning) Jim & I greeted them with their name. My having lived in the village for about 3 years. My brother said to me "You know & greet all these people by name, I've lived next to MY NEIGHBOUR for 22 years & I don't even know his name," I replied "That says more about you & being British than anything"

Good for you to admit you didn’t recognize her, much better to suffer that embarrassment than spend mental energy trying to figure out who she is

I used to work at an urgent care. I would tell people that it was a hippa requirement that I forget their names within 5 minutes

I give a presentation twice a month to new hires at work on their first day. So people remember me and come up in the cafeteria and say my name and I have no clue who they are. I started asking people in my presentation to introduce themselves if they see me later

Almost the exact same thing happened to me. My coworker went to the grocery store and she hadn't straightened her hair and wasn't wearing makeup. She kept waving and smiling, and I didn't recognize her until I heard her voice when she spoke to me at the checkout.

When this happens to me I tell them, "I'm sorry. I know you but we're not where I know you from so you're out of context. Who are you again?" Best ( or possibly worst) of these was my kid's teacher. I ran into her at the grocery store.
