Basically the same for me. My imagination is a database. Do you get deja vu often as well? I frequently feel like I've been somewhere or seen something before because it ticks the same few boxes in the "database," since I don't have any actual visual memory. Usually the more important or significant something is, the more specificity I remember it with, which makes places I drive infrequently or things I rarely see pretty imprecise, leading to overlap.
Intersection ✅ Trees around ✅ Certain brand gas station on X corner ✅
Yep, I know where I am (is 15 miles away from there)! Thankful for navigation apps. I'd get lost constantly without em.
I very rarely get deja vu, I don't think I've experienced it in the last year, when I was younger though in my early 20s I would get it a lot.
I do have great difficulty recognising people who I've met once or twice. Unless I go through the effort of noting down their features etc I could talk to someone walk off come back and not be able to point them out unless I hear them talk.
Here's hoping I'm never a witness to a bank robbery or something haha
