I frequently will see someone in a social setting and recognize them, know that I know them, but take a few minutes and sometimes a conversation with them to recall why I know them.
I do this, too, sometimes, but am never entirely sure if I actually know the person unless they manage to confirm it. I do have false positives often enough.
