  • Huh, I never knew the word for it. Thank you.

    My wife has said many times, to me and others, that she thinks I have a form of face blindness. I don’t think I do.

    It came up because every time someone said something like “doesn’t X look like Y when they were little?”, and I’d respond that I don’t see it. So many people say my kids are a splitting image of me… Nope, I don’t see that.

    I recognise people I know in photos, new or old photos, usually without issue.

    I do however often think an actor is someone they aren’t. “Hey, is that the person from this other movie”, my wife: “what?! No! They don’t even look alike”. And sometimes I’ll ask her if a random person looks like this or that person, usually with the same response, sometimes a strange look and “are you feeling ok?”.

    Anyway, these guys should team up on a project. /s
