A twin

You ever see someone who looks like someone you used to know ? Happened to me but it couldn't possibly be. They do say everyone has a look a like twin roaming around somewhere in the world. It makes you look twice. But again not possible its the same person yet an oddity just the same. Alternet Reality !

We could all have a doppelgänger somewhere, if you look into your ancestry. I'm Irish and if you go to Ireland and look for a skinny, pasty faced, blue-eyed person with reddish hair you will see me. That was a weird trip, seeing all these people that resemble me.

Happens to me all the time

People walk up to me and call me Johnny twice a month. Personally, I don't think there is a Johnny, I think these guys just want to get in my pants. For some weird reason, attention whores crave my attention, it's tiring as fuck.

It happened to me someone said omg you look just like the woman who manages the dollar store. So I was there one day shopping and the lady at the check out says to me again " hey there she is your exact look a like ". I turned around expecting to see my double and to tell you the truth I didn't see the resemblance what so ever. Lol
Maybe we both had glasses that's about it.
Eyes can really see differently when looking at the exact same thing

Sounds like a 90s chat room that came back to haunt us.

Makes Me Wonder

If I have an actual twin, as there is a big family secret around my birth.

Two times I've been told by friends and acquaintances that they saw me and I ignored them- once in North Van and another time in Richmond. Places I never ever go.
Another time, walking down the street a woman got very angry with me and told me how I'd broken her heart etc. I had never seen her before and certainly never dated her.
Several other times, on Skytrain etc had people come up to me and say "hi how you doing, haven't seen you for a long time". And then look confused at my confusion.

Not a twin!

Happens to me every couple of years! A complete stranger will accost me and insists that I'm X or Y or Z (name is always different). Usually they just laugh when they realize they are wrong, but I've had people argue with me about who I am.

Dad long dead, mom in severe dementia, and estranged from the rest of my abusive family.

I saw my twin when I was 9

on a ferry to/from Horseshoe Bay. She even was wearing a similar pink dress to one I owned but wasn't wearing at the time.
And another time, in my late 20s) a French Canadian woman insisted that I looked like her friend Manon... though she was drunk at the time so not sure how great her vision was at the time.
The idea of everyone having a twin somewhere seems like something out of a sci-fi novel. ;)
