Dear Annie: I’m bad at remembering special dates and events

Dear Annie: Is it normal not to remember every significant date or detail in a relationship? I’ve been engaged for more than three years, and my fiancee seems to remember everything — the day we first started talking, the day we stopped using the dating app, social events we’ve attended together and even details about my life that even I’ve forgotten.

I’ve always had a bad memory and maybe I’m not putting in enough effort, but sometimes I worry that my inability to remember things the way she does makes me seem uncaring. I often find myself in awe and jealous of how much she remembers. The truth is my mind can only hold so much without a notepad of paper in front of me.
