Well, it looks like science can explain why people tend to remember the really stressful events in their lives while forgetting the fun filled times. Apparently, when we are stressed, we release a cascade of chemicals that increase our capacity to vividly remember the event causing that stress.
So...
Can't forget about your creepy ex? Or that horrid break-up when your lady love announced she was pregnant with the neighbor's kid? Or the spring day when your knight in shining armor dressed up in stiletto heels, a leather collar, and tiny black dress to tell the world that you made him decide to switch his sexual orientation?
It's not your fault...blame the stress response!
