wondering if this is synesthesia or if i'm just weird

Well, i feel like i can kind of taste personalities? Like idk how to explain exactly, it's like a mix of voice, appearance and ofc personality.

It's been with me ever since i was a kid, but the reason i am doubtful is bc it doesn't really happens all the time... In my experience this happens more often upon meeting women, men's taste aren't usually so tangible for some reason.

Also, the more i know of the person, the less i am mindful of what they taste like, like how if you see the same thing over and over again you'll eventually ignore it. But still i can attribute a taste for them.

Due to those inconsistencies, i am unsure if this is synesthesia or just something else. I looked a little bit into it on the internet and it seems like this type of synesthesia is quite rare, so at the same time that i doubt having it, it's clearly been a thing that i've been doing for years, i even realized that most women that i had a crush on had "similar taste".

I am also mildly autistic if this changes anything
