I forgot · I completely forgot about it
You know those moments when you totally forget something important, but it wasn't intentional? 😅 This is your go-to phrase for those brain-fart moments! It shows you didn't mean to forget, it just... *slipped* away. Perfect for light excuses or admissions of forgetfulness.
💡 Use 'It slipped my mind' when you want to politely admit forgetfulness without sounding irresponsible. It implies an unintentional oversight. For example, 'I'm so sorry, it slipped my mind to send that email.' Avoid using it for truly critical or sensitive matters where a more serious apology might be needed!
