that happened to me this week.. someone claiming to know me but i didn't have a clue
no it never bothered me....short version I became DID as a very young child not even old enough for school yet. the result of this is that it was my normal to have situations where people I did not know would come up to me talking as if they knew me. example one day when I was 4 getting school clothes with my parents another child came running over to me. I didnt know who she was but she showed me her new dress and let me play with her new toy. in high school I had this was a normal occurrence through out my life. After I was integrated and someone I didnt recognize would start a conversation with me I would have to pay attention to whether they used a name for me in the conversation to give me a clue as to when and where I knew them. but usually if I waited patiently the memory would come to me of who this person was and when and where I knew them from because everything that was the alters memories were mine also after integration.
