I want to forget, you want to keep

2130The deep futureDeadline · Within 45 days until the sharing covenant renews

Civilisational assumption

The people, events, figures, and contract terms are a synthetic premise. They are not statements of real cases or of current law. The source documents are the roots of the background and the norms and do not establish the premises of the scenario.

The question to decide

Of the memories shared with each other, one person wants to forget and the other wants to keep them as part of their life. Following each choice changes how much of the past is known and the burden of explaining it. Should they leave memory holding to each person and continue the relationship, stop using the shared memories together, or end the present relationship?

The options

The order shown is not a ranking of preference.

  1. Option 1

    Recognize each person's desired retention of memory

    Each sets their own life as they wish, but the asymmetry that one knows the past remains in the relationship.

  2. Option 2

    Together stop using the shared memories

    It meets the conditions of the new relationship but restricts the will of the person who wants to keep the memory.

  3. Option 3

    End the present relationship

    It does not manage the asymmetry as a relationship agreement, but loses a relationship built by living together and future possibilities.

The situation as it stands

The two assumed adults have shared some past experiences with each other, and one of them wants to end their own retention of those memories. Decision deadline: within the 45 days until the sharing agreement is renewed.

A synthetic future scenario set in 2130 · I give memories to others, forget them alone, and restart the relationship. The events, figures, technology, and nature of the civilization are assumptions for the sake of the question, not predictions of the future or observed facts.

  1. Premise 1The two assumed adults have shared some past experiences with each other, and one of them wants to end their own retention of those memories.
  2. Premise 2For the other person, the same memory has become part of their own life, and they do not want to remove it together.
  3. Premise 3If only one person forgets, the degree of knowing the past and the burden of explaining it will differ in the relationship that follows.

Where it holdsEach person's memories, restarting the relationship, one-sided change

What is still unknown

  1. Unknown 1Can retention of a memory be separated from using it on the other person?
  2. Unknown 2The scope of explanation the parties want in the new relationship
  3. Unknown 3The shared responsibility that remains after each has changed

Signals to decide again

  • Decide what observation, owner, and confirmation window will verify 'the scope of explanation the parties want in the new relationship', and re-judge when a new confirmation changes the cost of the options.
  • Decide what observation, owner, and confirmation window will verify 'the shared responsibility that remains after each has changed', and re-judge when a new confirmation changes the cost of the options.
