Scary eh? I have similar memories I have forgotten, like where we got some of our dogs.
Selective memory is a survival mechanism 馃榿

It bugs me when I can't remember something like that, and it happens fairly often when I'm speaking with my former husband.
Maybe you [b]are[/b] trying to suppress memories of that particular 'ex', if most of them are bad.

Before I can say how sympathetic I am I need to know when you got married. I mean, was it last week or fifty years ago? :-)

@ninalanyon our 40th anniversary is next year.

@DrWatson Then a few lapses of memory regarding the year preceding the wedding is perfectly understandable! I have to think hard even to remember where I was living forty years ago!
Congratulations on making it this far, long may it continue.

Memories come back to me in fits and starts. Weird mundane things I remember much better than big events

@Lemonadepopper I can definitely relate to that. Three years ago, I was contacted by someone I had not seen or interacted with for 50 years. As we exchanged emails, all kinds of things rushed back into my memory that I had long forgotten about!

@Freeranger I am friends with her exes and she is friends with mine.

I'm pretty good on most of those things, except for the 90's, that while decade is a bit fuzzy.
