This is probably a long shot, but...

If someone on the app suddenly forgets about the app, or just all the weird things going on ... is there a way to make them, er, re-remember again?

Thanks. I'm sorry if this's been asked before.

Even if it has, it's worth asking again to refresh people's memories, or for those of us who only recently got the app.

It's possible that they can remember again, but I don't think it's up to us.

I forgot everything about Retrospec last month for nearly two weeks. Then it all just came rushing back. I couldn't believe I'd somehow forgotten, with everything that was going on...

Nobody reminded me of it though; I remembered it on my own.

Yes, he could.

However... I wouldn't count on it. From what I've seen and heard, my experience is the exception, not the rule.

I'm sorry.

That's a better way to look at it. He'll just think all of this is normal and not stress about it.

It might be a little callous, but it might be helpful for you, too. My cousin's been staying with me and he doesn't know anything about Retrospec. It can be nice sometimes to get away from talking about all of this for a while. Just because he doesn't remember this doesn't mean your relationship with him should suffer for it.

As far as I've been able to figure out, nothing anyone has tried has worked.

I also want to find out, myself. Honestly, despite all the trouble this app has caused, I'd rather not forget.

Supposedly people can also remember it on their own somehow
But I haven't seen it happen

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-09-19 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah...

Most of the time, once they forget, they're just

You know. Gone. In a sense.

The girl I knew who forgot
So much of what we'd known and talked about together was gone it was almost like she had become a different person
The girl I knew was gone

I think the only way to re-remember everything is with the app.

A couple of my friends and I were aware of all the weird things going on when we had it but when it disappeared off our phones, we suddenly forgot everything. Then when we got it back a few weeks later, we remembered everything again.

Your brother
I'm sorry, either way

But yeah we hadn't known each other outside of retrospec so she knew who was I but not really anything else

I'm not too sure, actually. I can't imagine that it'd be that easy or everyone could get the app, but it can be worth a shot?
