I had a very similar experience in second year. It was my greatest "Seinfeld" moment. First day of class the prof asks us to break into groups and I naturally group up with an attractive girl nearby. The following class she sits next to me and I realize that I can't remember her name and rather than simply apologize and ask her for it I stupidly sat there trying to figure it out. So when the third class came around and I still didn't know her name I felt we had come to far for me to ask her what it was. She sat next to me for the entire semester and I only managed to find out her name in the final week of classes. I felt so terrible and incredibly dumb.
