Oh, i forgot what i have to say!

it happens to me from time to time especially when i am trying to say something then someone interrupts hehehe i tend to forget. it annoys me especially when it's something very important

don't worry, you're not alone. it always happen to me. sometimes i would remember what i have to say after an hour or two and the person that i'm talking with is already gone and i would completely forgot to tell that person what i'm supposed to tell him/her. is it normal for people getting old? and is this really a sign of getting old?

Hi SIMPLYD, The same thing I am to experiencing off and on. It is something like I wanted to tell you something very serious and started too but in between something came out and I got rambled. When think what was the topic I had started I feel a total blank. Is it a sign of getting aged? I am only 42 now. Or it is a problem that requires a psychiatrist?

I belong to the diminishing returns, so I have to mentally take note of everything around me. That helps a lot. And my daughter, just two decades old, seek me out, asking what it is that is at the tip of her tongue. And yours truly provides in earnest, ha ha!

Hi SIMPLYD Forgetting what I was about to speak MANY many times... I forget because I am scared of my wife whom I love so much... and It is good that I forget because if I did not, it would lead to many unwanted discussions and spread unhappiness... I am thankful to getting old if this is what old has to give to me... ps. I also forget what I have to buy from the vegetable market many a times... she wants potatoes and I get her onions

Hi simplyd! You said sign of getting older?? That always happen to me.. I keep repeating my last word to make me remember what was supposed to be said. So embarrassing sometimes that I can't continue with my story anymore.

Yeah!!! I remember i have such moments... Its like my attention span has turned little. Haha. Even with things i want to do... I sometimes forget them when i do not write them down.

Yes this happens to me occasionally if I'm tired or stressed I sometimes lose my train of thought and forget what I was going to say or forget what I was talking about lol.

Oh yes i know what you mean. At times it is embarrassing especially when i am talking to my boss..it happens when i have so many things in mind..

Yes that has happened to me before. I hate when that happens because it makes me feel like I am getting old or something. Most of the time a word or phrase jogs my memory and I remember what it was I was saying or had to say.

I think that happens to everyone from time to time,so it also happened to me on different occasions;we are not robots,we can't be programmed to remember everything yet;who knows,maybe in the future we will,but I don't think that remembering everything would be a blessing,on the contrary,we would also remember things we want to forget.So I think it's normal to forget what we want to say as long as it doesn't happen very often.

this happens to me too most of the time. When my mind is bursting with information that my mouth cannot keep up with that is the time I forgot. I also forget what i am about to say when the person I am talking to interrupts me or there is an outside interruption.Sometimes I can remember what i am to say and sometimes I totally forget it :)

Yep, happens to me all the time. Another favorite thing of mine to do is to walk into a room and totally forget what you were going to so. Especially if it was something you NEEDED to do! I hate that feeling.

Hi Simplyd! That happened to me too. Rather happens to me too ;) I feel like the right words are at the tip of my tongue or half of my brain is thinking of what to say and the other half is screaming what it actually is that I want to say ^_^

hello simplyd, This is normal. And so annoying to us,because the more we tried to recall,the more we forgot and gosh... have you ever tried walking back from where you've been assuming and hoping you might recall what you really want to say?

Hi friend, this happens to me these days more, the word i want to covey is at the tip of my tongue, but i can't recollect when needed, but later it comes, there was a time when i was able to reproduce 15-16 fool's cap size notes on black board , this was full of complex mathematical calculations, i could do it error free. I also at times keep searching for my spects lol This is sure sign of aging.. Thanks for sharing Cheers. God bless you, have a nice day ahead. Professor ‘Bhuwan’. .

Yeah, and sometimes the word is just on the tip of your tongue but you can't remember it and the conversation is ruined....I'll just say, "I'll get back to you later" but as I go I'm in deep thought trying to remember what's the word, lol!
