acquaintenance

A facial expression showing slight confusion, often accompanied by a furrowed brow, brought on when meeting someone for the second-or-third time, before you can remember their name. Portmanteau of ACQUAINTANCE and COUNTENANCE.
It was obvious that I could not remember the new student's name, my face wearing the tell-tale acquaintenance of a poor memory.

Polite Acquaintance Zone

The proper place to consider an ex-lover after a bad break up. Should not be confused with the friend zone.
After she got over her anger about our break up, Nancy wanted to remain friends. But I think it's a better idea to keep her in my polite acquaintance zone.
