Answer 1

One or two incidents of this kind does not qualify for short term memory loss. If it's regular phenomenon in your life, then you should think about the reasons behind it. And there may be many reasons like- your preoccupation with something, stress in life, your mood and/or  some real problem.  

Answer 2

no if this is only one time then there is no real problem

Answer 3

One incident doesn't mean you're either stupid or have short term memory loss. I always forget small things like that. You may have had other things on your mind or just be having an off day.

If you're really worried, get yourself checked out by a doctor.

Answer 4

You are not stupid! It may mean that you have a lot on your mind and are not thinking about what you are doing. Maybe you are distracted by other things.

Everyone has this happen at times. It happens to me a lot when I am stressed out or worried. I left my keys in the refrigerator one time! I was just distracted. Try practicing concentration on what you are doing, being in the moment and forgetting about extraneous things.

There is nothing wrong with you. You are not stupid. =)

Answer 5
