Sorry if this question is too broad, but: Do you remember which person gave you the biggest first impression? Good, bad, confusing… I get that this question is probably hard to answer so please don’t feel like you need to get back to it immediately :P

You understand that this is a difficult question for me to answer. Largely because so much of my life is such a confusing jumble of memories. I can recall individuals very clearly, but usually, those memories are triggered. Sitting here, just thinking “Who has instantly triggered my interest” all I can think of is him. He’s here, I can smell him, and so my mind goes blank to all else.

To remember anyone else, I’d need a trigger. I’ve simply met too many people over too long a time.

My memory is always treading water.
