I have ADHD (+ other stuff) and so names has always been a massive issue for me. A few years ago I just stopped trying because I don't talk to most people anyways.
out of the ~25 people in this class with me right now (fun fact! I am breaking a law by being on my phone rn :3) I know the name of,
1: teacher
2: girl with pink hair
3: trans friend
4: person who sits next to me and cannot understand what a function is to save his life
5: someone who I sat next to in 3rd grade
The others, no earthly idea. I have COWORKERS in this class who I don't know their name 😓
2 things that make it a little bit easier to remember other people's names is repeating the name of the person after he/she just said it and trying to associate with another person you know that has the same name. It's not perfect but it's better than forgetting every single time.

I spent more than 4 years working in a place were I just knew the names of the 10 people immediately around me. People kept talking about person X or Y from another floor or room and I had absolutely no fucking idea who they were talking about.

You are literally burning money. Pay attention as instructors don't work for free
You pay for the degree, not the classes.
They could be in 4th grade...
winter break starts tomorrow, I finished pretty much all my work last week. My school makes winter break start next week because of the way the semesters line up.
I was forced to spend 3 hours in the gym today watching a students vs teachers basketball game.
The most work I've done in the last 3 days is roll a die and draw a snowman depending on those numbers then doing math to figure out the chances of the ordering of them in AP Comp-Sci Principles lol
I appreciate the message though. I try to understand all the information I can, even if I'm horrible at Spanish 2 and English 😭
on the bright side, this is the last time I get to say "see ya next year" (I'm a senior in HS)

Knowing someones name is a bit too intimate for my taste.
I have a friend who is a legend. If I've been hanging out with someone he will ask their name and if I don't know then he will introduce himself to them ask their name then tell me. Saved me so many times.

Something profound about only knowing someone by your shared experiences
Haha bro remember that time 10 years ago when we did that thing? Man that was nice.
"I once worked with a guy for three years and never learned his name. Best friend I ever had. We still never talk sometimes..." - Ron Swanson
Wait until you need to reference your bro for someone else.
I talked to ??? about /something/...
This is the correct way to do friendships. Drag doesn't agree with the forced intimacy of learning someone's name the same day you meet them. Names should be shared the third time you meet someone. Of course sometimes it's necessary to learn names earlier or later, but the default should be third.

A month? I've known guys for years and still don't know their names and it is WAY too late to ask.

It’s cool. I don’t usually care about people‘s names that much, and I know he doesn’t care about my name, so why does it matter.
For the most part people can call me dude and bro until the end of time at work.
“I’m the dude, man”
Or El Duderino, if they're not into the whole brevity thing.
We don't need names, so long we vibe
Haha there's a guy I hang out with at the library and I think he's great.
Wanted to invite him to a party and realized I had no way to get in touch. No name or anything.
For like a month, I've been trying to visit the library at the same exact time to see if we bump into each other.
Library stranger, I hope we meet again.

For real. Came into work for six months and talked to this dude about a bunch of stuff every time. Only a week ago did I find out his name. Now I can finally say his name instead of starting off with "hey bro"
At least you remember names. Someone can tell me their name, I'll repeat it as suggested, forget it a few days later anyway.
I'll remember a phone number before someone's name.
Hell, I remember one dude as initials + his age when I met him. I don't know why. Example: If I met John Doe aged 32, there's a chance I'd remember him as "JD32", and forget his actual name.
Shout-out to MK22, I forgot your name again.
I have a friend who has a lot of friends. Sometimes we hangout together, but rarely. I cannot for the life of me remember their names and I swear 3 of them look the fucking same to me. It's always a struggle to keep pretending for hours until I finally hear someone call one of them by name. I remember that for a few hours. If we hangout again next day it resets out of my head again.

Meet my friends R2D2 and C3P0
I just remember faces for 20 years, no clue about their names.
As long as you didn't meet anyone named Martin Swanson at age 13..
