I’ve had face blindness my whole life. I can’t remember people’s faces.
My best friend and my boyfriend had always loved teasing me about it.
At a get-together with old classmates, Ethan once had someone dress exactly like him and made me guess which one was really him. When Sophie and I went shopping, she and Ethan would sometimes duck into fitting rooms while I wasn’t looking, swap clothes with strangers, and make me find them.
Every time, I would end up standing there helplessly, crying and begging them to stop messing with me.
Until my wedding day, just before the wedding party was supposed to leave for the hotel.
Ethan arranged for six fake grooms to show up dressed exactly like him and told me to pick out the real one.
This time, I didn’t cry.
I simply placed my hand in the palm of one of them.
They all looked the same to me anyway.
Whether I chose Ethan or someone else made no real difference.
