Does happen to you, do not be able to find your bench after taking Holy Communion?

I'm Catholic from Poland, i often cannot find my bench on which i seat on the begin of Holy Mass. i wonder does i'm so dumb or this is my Asperger Syndrome, because i have AS :-)

Catholic churches tend to be physically bigger than the typical America typically Protestant church. So if you have to return to your pew, and are forced to gaze upon the pews from the opposite perspective (pulpit to the back, instead from your seat to the pulpit) I can see how you can get lost. And the benches arent numbered like parking lots in a shopping mall.

Yeah. AS probably is a factor. I used to forget where I parked my car on campus in college.
