Tip: Remembering people’s interests to strengthen connections - assalamu alaikum

Assalamu alaikum - I’ve heard of people who keep small notebooks to jot down things others mention in conversation so they can share related resources or events later on. For me, I usually keep a few unique details in my head about what people say, then message them from time to time to keep the relationship going after meeting. I think that’s helped me maintain close friends and casual acquaintances over the years. At the end of the day, many of us just want to be heard and seen. It feels meaningful when someone remembers something we said and shares something relevant at the right time. How do others keep up friendships and social ties? ☺️
