It makes us feel as though we’ve made enough of an impression to be memorable. That in turn makes it easier for us to relax, to connect, and feel more comfortable in the relationship.

   Is it hard to remember a person's name?

   • "When you tell me that you find it hard to remember a person's name, what you're really saying is you can't remember the association between the name and the face," says Ranganath.
