Babe, what time is your doctor’s appointment on the 8th of September?
Oh yeah, I have an appointment. I forgot about that. I guess it was 9 or something.
Does this sound familiar to you? Sometimes you make fun of it, but it can also be annoying and frustrating, isn’t it? You really can’t fault your partner for it though, especially when you know that he/she has a lot of things going on with work. Who doesn’t forget things from time to time anyway?
In fact, there is a science behind that. That has something to do with our prospective memory.
Prospective memory is the ability to plan, retain and retrieve an intention as planned.
It is an important ability so we can function properly as human beings, meet life’s everyday challenges, and allows us to structure and organized our time accurately at our own pace. But as we get older, so as our prospective memory.
You don’t need to endure and suffer because of it, though.
How do you remember appointments?
If you are the forgetful partner, you can ask your partner to always remind you about the appointment. If your partner is the forgetful one, you can constantly remind him/her about it. It’s a team effort, they said.
However, that can be draining as time goes by. It might even escalate to arguments and fights.
To avoid unnecessary fights, why not try this simple, easy way?
