How not to treat people with face blindness (and lose business goodwill at the same time) - insist that the person (who you know cannot remember faces) will "figure it out, so I'll leave you to it" and walk off smirking.

For me,this is awful to experience.

And fair warning: I will get some help, figure out who you are, and never - ever - refer people to you because you are neither safe nor compassionate and we work in allied fields. Because if you do this to me and you have met me, what will you do to someone with trauma, special needs, other challenges?!

Be kind to others, and don't play spiteful games with people, it hurts everyone.

Have a good, and compassionate, day.
