Today, I was entering a guy's number into my phone, and I couldn't remember his name. Embarrassed, I tried to be sneaky and asked, "Can you spell your name for me, please?" His name is Bob. FML

so is it Bhob or you know just Bob? ....

Op: What's your name again? Bob: Bob Op: No, your last name? Now you would have both names and not seem as stupid. Next time try doing this method. ^_^

Op, does it hurt to be that stupid...? How hard is it to simply ask what his name is and chuckle about having a horrible memory...?

I've been in a situation like this before, and it can be kind of awkward... sorry OP, that sucks.

Actually, I never really thought of that! Good advice!

Exactly! And if he asks why you want his last name, just say you have more than one "Bob" in your phone.

I know this is a little late but holy crap. Best. Tip. Ever.

i don't think you should be flirting with other guys, Howard might get upset and go into a nerdy jew rage

"no no, I meant your last name" = lifesaver

Just tell him you wanted to make sure he prefers Bob over Bobby or even Robert. ***I'm so bad at remembering names too. ):
