I also have this problem, combined with my general awkwardness it means I really struggle to network. I even managed to go to a hn meetup and not manage to talk to anyone. I find it particularly awkward when it is obvious someone recognises or remembers me as there is little to no chance I'll recognise them. I ran my local poker club for a year or two and there were people who came every week and I had to ask their names every time. Prosapagnosia really sucks, I sometimes wonder how much my social awkwardness is actually from that trait rather than aspeger's. I'd welcome a good guide on how to network without being "creepy" but sadly TFA was not good advice, it washed over how to initiate conversation with "just do it", useless advice.
