I am and it sucks. Very limiting socially. I can’t even reliably differentiate my parents from similar looking people beyond 10ft or so.

For most people the only thing I can really use are things like distinctive hair or tattoos.

Context is also very important. Back when I still worked in a office I eventually learned the people I interacted with at work, but if I saw them in, say, a store dressed casually I probably wouldn’t recognize them, or at least not be sure enough it was them to approach.

(BTW, face blindness is another one of those things that tends to co-occur with autism. )

We ought to start a movement and push for a law requiring everyone to have their forehead barcoded. ;)
