Do you look younger than your age?

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).

  • I think so yes. Mum used to say I didn't look my age and I've heard a few other people say that as well so I guess so.

    I looked in the mirror the other day actually and noticed I've changed a lot, look more grown up than I thought I did. So maybe my looking younger is only seen by other people to me I look like I'm growing up. I like it. Makes me feel more adult and wise :o)
