How would an NT react if after asking me "how old are you?" I tell him and her that I refuse to share my age in casual settings because when I make social mistakes, I just want to be assumed to be younger and therefore more forgivable?

If they know my age, they'll know I've "fallen socially behind." I don't want them to know that; I want them to assume that I'm younger therefore more prone to make social missteps and also more forgivable of these social missteps.

So what if I just tell them that I don't want people that I make social mistakes to, to know my age so that I can just be assumed to be younger when I make said mistakes?
