Why do people always remember stuff that does not matter? - 1

I got this one friend that will always forget stuff I tell him, but he will remember stuff I did in the past with no problem.
I got mad at my old iPhone because it kept freezing up. Got mad and threw the thing across the room. Friend remembers this, and it happened 3 years ago.

Tapped a cars bumper pulling too far forward in a parking spot, but didn't leave any damage. Didn't leave note, but I didn't move my car either. Came out of store, and the other car was gone. He remembers this, and it happened 5 years ago.

But then I will tell my friend something I want him to remember, and if I ask him about it a few months later, he acts like I never told him. Why are some people like this?

Because in reality it does matter to your friend.
And then you tell him something you want him to remember but he doesn't care so he forgets.

They do that to drive you crazy and hope you'll have a heart attack and drop dead in front of them so they can take your wallet and credit cards and go charge crazy.

They don't… They remember things that are important to them, so for some inexplicable reason your traffic dilemma and your fit of temperament matter to him. Ever wonder why?

Maybe you should incorporate craziness w/ things you want him to remember. Like break a glass and at the same time tell him what you want him to remember.
