Chapter 738 Extra: Fu Yuchen, I Was so Lonely that I Finally Met You
Prosopagnosia?
If it were placed more than 20 years ago, many people would be particularly unfamiliar with it.
Nowadays, many people say that they have prosopagnosia, and there is no way to tell who those people are!
It's just that because all the beauties on the Internet have plastic surgery to look like the same mold, it is naturally very difficult to tell them apart.
But, what I want to talk about today is prosopagnosia!
It's a disease!
Prosopagnosia is also known as "face amnesia". New research finds that prosopagnosia, which was thought to be extremely rare in the past, is actually relatively common around the world. This symptom is generally divided into two types: the patient cannot see other people's faces clearly; the patient loses the ability to recognize other people's faces.
This matter is still a difficult problem in medicine, and no solution has been found yet.
If you say, today I will tell you what prosopagnosia is!
I think you are wrong!
Since I was a child, I couldn't distinguish a person's appearance, so even very familiar people seemed like strangers when I met them in a strange environment.
Because of this, I was ostracized by many people when I was a child.
They say I'm aloof, they say I'm prude, they say I'm deliberately pretentious.
In fact, having prosopagnosia is not my fault at all. I really have no way to tell who this person is!
Later, I learned about a person through some details. For example, she was a girl with curly hair. If she straightened her hair, I wouldn't recognize her. If there were many girls with curly hair, I would be confused and couldn't tell the difference at all. No one can tell who is who.
Or I will remember that the person has a mole on his nose and a mole on the left side of his face, but they are too far away to see the moles on his face, or there are moles on both faces and they appear in the same position, and I also Will be at a loss.
There are also some people who walk with splayed legs and look extremely ugly, like a duck, but when they are not walking, I don’t recognize them at all.
Because of these small details, I make a lot of jokes when I try to remember a person.
People's names and people often don't match up.
However, I do not have a bad memory as others have said.
As long as I'm not asked to remember things other than faces, I can memorize them perfectly.
Because of prosopagnosia, my relationship with the people around me is not very good.
At first, maybe because I was young, I cared a lot about these so-called friendships, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
Later, I probably read a piece of Chicken Soup for the Soul, and then I was inspired.
The general content is that if you look down upon me today, I will definitely make you look down upon tomorrow.
I want to make people unattainable.
You can only create conditions for yourself through your own efforts.
When I achieve success, let my name become synonymous with successful people in other people's mouths.
I no longer hear those people talking about me, how rude I am, how I can’t even remember my best friend’s name and face…
Many people say that I am aloof and arrogant, saying that this fits my personality very well.
They started trying every possible way to get me to remember their faces!
Don't know why...
I don't like this kind of environment very much.
Something seems to be contrary to my original intention.
After my mother knew that I had this idea, she immediately suggested to me that I should come back and try it!
I readily agreed, thinking at the time that maybe in a different place or environment, my life would change dramatically.
Just as I imagined, life has indeed taken a turn for the worse!
