Do you look younger than your age?
Could this be autism related?
An autistic friend mentioned this to me the other day and then it was commented on in a thread here today.
I do look younger than my age and so does my friend - maybe by as much as a decade (on a good day).
My daughter is 21 but looks about 15. When she was assessed and asked her name she couldn't believe her age but then did say people with ASD typically look younger and are 5 years behind emotionally.
