I'm not sure what you'd call it but let me give you some examples. When my parents are building or remodeling something I can't picture it until it's done. I also SUCK at questionares (job application/Eharmony) I've never been in those situations so I don't know how I'd react. Although I can imagine plenty of Psychology study ideas (Psychology being my special interest and all) Oh boy at the things I could study! JUST WOW!! !! !! !! If only! :-(

I have difficulty time knowing how I'd react if I have never been in a situation.

i sometimes wonder if my (terrible) sense of direction has something to do with this, or with my difficulty with spatial relationships in general. (left vs. right can still be a little tricky, especially if something's facing me, and i must decide which is ITS left or right.)

i don't seem to remember the visual cues of how to get from point A to point B, and am generally lost. if i could visualize the whole terrain better, would this not be a problem? etc. those are the things i wonder about when i'm driving/walking around in circles.

Me? Well, I'm not that quite sure.

I can remember how to get from Point A to Point B after going over it once or twice. I always mix up my left or rights.
I have a hard time remembering the faces of people, even though I remember their names.

Although in my spare time, I think up new pictures of stuff that I'm going to draw in the future, and I remember every single thing. And I assure you, there are literally hundreds that I can remember.

This describes me perfectly. I have trouble with all of the above.
