Throwaway bc I'm scared my coworkers will find this

Ok so my memory is actually horrible, not even kidding. My friends think I'm joking when I say I forget stuff but I'm dead serious

Been talking to a bunch of people on dating apps lately. Nothing serious, just that early stage where you're still figuring each other out.

Problem is I keep mixing everyone up constantly.

Like one girl tells me her hobbies, pet peeves, random life stuff, and a week later I’ll mix her details up with someone else’s. It’s so bad. I literally asked the same person the exact same question twice mid-convo once, and she just went “you already asked me that.” I wanted to die on the spot

So I started doing this weird thing.

I use acciowork daily for work—it’s just boring software to organize supplier info. Lately I’ve been jotting quick little notes about my matches in there , the same way I log basic details for suppliers

Yeah I know, sounds odd.

Just tiny stuff: “hates mushrooms”, “cat named Milo”, “scared of heights”, stuff like that.

Met one girl for coffee last week. Glanced over my notes right before showing up so I wouldn’t blank on that random thing she mentioned weeks back. The date went really well, and she was genuinely surprised I remembered such a small detail

But now I can’t stop overthinking it. Am I being weird for doing this? I swear I’m not ranking anyone or comparing matches against each other at all. I really do just have garbage memory and hate embarrassing myself like that again.

Still… using work software to log people I’m seeing? It feels so cold, honestly. Like I’m treating dating like another tedious work task.

Half of me says it’s just a practical fix for my bad memory. The other half worries I’m killing all the natural romantic vibe by being this calculated from the start.

Idk man. Am I just overthinking way too much, or is this habit actually kinda messed up? Just want some honest outside opinions pls
