Have you ever ignored someone you know because you didn't recognize her at the moment?
Not that I remember. Once I was at a convention from the the work I do, and met one one of my colleagues who I was very good with, but I dunno what happened, for the life of me, I didn't recognize her!!! This is a woman who I had met on a weekly basis and we'd been in touch via email.
And she gave me a warm Hello and called me by my name. I felt so embarrassed that I had to say to her, "I'm so sorry, you look familiar but I don't remember your name."
B'H she wasn't insulted but took it graciously.
Have you ever forgotten your cellphone number when s/o asked you for it?
(Has happened to me so many times!)

I've had the same cellphone number since before I'm married, so not in many years!
(And no, I don't think I've ever stayed awake that long!)
Have you ever figured out who another imamother poster was?
My aunt A"H was smilingmom.
Reading a thread she started I went to my mom and said "ima is this your sister" and she said yes... I could have just clicked in her signature but I don't see that on mobile.
Also I can tell when my mom is anonymous
Have you ever freely told ppl what your screen name is ? I do all the time.
Have you ever seen a movie that you regret spending money for
Well, I don't really regret money I did not spend wisely...
In the case of the movie I left after 10 minutes because it was too scary, I enjoyed NOT being in the cinema so much that I did not regret the money I spent on the ticket.
Have you ever regretted you did NOT buy something?

Have you ever regretted you did NOT buy something?
Not that I remember. I don't live with the thoughts of -
- oh, a shame that I didn't/did ...
- I should have ...
- I could have ...
- If only...
If I didn't buy something, Hashem Wanted it this way, so it was better for me that I didn't buy it. Plus it was not bashert for me to have it.
Were you ever on bed rest for a long time in hospital, during pregnancy?

Were you ever on bed rest for a long time in hospital, during pregnancy?
Yes! This spring/summer for the first time and I'm loving it.
Have you ever met an esteemed politician?
Well it has happened quite a few times that I have been in the same room as politicians who have functions on a national level, but you can't say I've met them. Once you are around those people you learn that the biggest favor you can do them is not to bother them. So I tend to move away from them, not towards them, when I have the occasion.
Have you ever met a person who looked or behaved just like someone else you knew, but they were not related at all, didn't even know each other?

One of my immediate family members resembles closely a known Jewish singer. Their faces are extremely similar, same color hair, same body build and they wear the same type of hat and jacket. Many people have mistaken my relative for that singer, and once when the singer advertised an upcoming concert in which he was to perform, my family member's mother phoned her son and angrily asked him what the ad. was all about? Even his own mother mistook her son for that singer!
And no, they're not related at all.
Did someone ever (mistakenly) shout at you in public - the person mistook you for someone else she meant to shout at?
