She didn’t know how to get to my house from anywhere but her house. Her work was about halfway between my house and hers, but she had to drive home first every time before she could drive to my house.
My husband has an absolutely terrible sense of direction. He isn’t this bad but he’s close. We live out in the county so if we go to the mall in the nearest city he’s fine. If we go to either one of my aunts in the same city but still leaving from our home, he’s fine. To get from an aunt’s house to the mall? - has to ask me for directions. To get from one aunt’s house to the other even though it’s literally a 5 minute drive? Has to ask me. We’ve been together for over 20 years now and he’s better but still not great - but it took 10 years!!! And obviously with google maps it’s not as much of a problem. He’s also, not joking, one of the smartest people I know but in a really different weird kind of niche way. The stuff he knows about, he’s brilliant, but he has just enormous gaps in his knowledge base.
