I'm pretty unique in that I've got a pretty bad short term memory. And I've found that nothing turns off girls more than a bad memory for some reason. Maybe it's nervousness or something, but I will literally forget stuff like the name of a main street I like to eat at, or a name of a friend that I've known for a long time. Even the names of household items or names are hard to remember at times. It's easier to visualise something and describe it then to remember the name of it, it's directionally accurate however imprecise.

First of all, I've found that people find that extremely unattractive, why? Second of all, how do I fix it? (If I can). I'm a pretty smart guy doing my masters degree, just find it hard to remember stuff that's not relevant
