      It's the reason I came to find EP. I was looking for a forum on prosopagnosia. My own case seems to be caused by damage to my Fusiform Gyrus in childhood.

    I've not ever heard of such a condition! It thankfully has left your sense of humor intact, and apparently not affected your cool writing style. This could have gone two ways, the girl could have either flipped her lid and screamed, or swooned in romantic fantasy at your forceful actions. Looks like you lucked out with the latter. Great story ツ

    It was embarrassing but, looking back on it, apparently I could have swept that girl off her feet and she would have let me. God I wish I'd known at the time that I had it in me to be so romantic.

    Oh dear...that would be funny if it wasn't so serious. It must be frustrating sometimes.
