That's hilarious that people think you and your steps look alike!<br/><br/>ginger: oh twins are the worst. lol! I used to say hi to this lady all the time only to find out it was her twin sister. I could never figure out why she always acted like she never knew me.<br/>It's funny how twins look so much alike but if you date one or are really good friends with one they look nothing alike.<br/><br/>xanadu: yes very frustrating! even worse if you remember them 5 min after they walk away. it's like "oh wait, you think I'm my sister..."<br/><br/>silver: i get the mom thing too. As for her going on and on, I can see how she thought I was Betsy. I did mention Betsy in the course of our conversation and I bet once I mentioned her name she had an "a-ha" moment and felt as strange as I did not placing her. ha!<br/><br/>inneed: I'm glad you found me :)<br/>I know what you mean about the adopting thing. My friends brother and his wife adopted their son and he really does resemble them so I guess we do see what we want to see. morphine: Sally and Jason look alike and me, John and Betsy look alike.

xanadu: yes very frustrating! even worse if you remember them 5 min after they walk away. it’s like “oh wait, you think I’m my sister…”

Sometimes people seee what they want to see. I had friends who adopted a baby and when they visited the churches they grew up in everyone in the dad's old church said how much the baby looked like him. Same thing in the mom's old church. <br/><br/>Sounds like you handled the whole thing well - evenafter an hour of turbokick. <br/><br/>I was trying to figure out how there were two forests. After reading your entries, it makes sense now. <br/><br/>Hope your day's a good one! I’m smiling at Morphine’s comment. Sometimes people seee what they want to see.

At least you figured it out. Funny story! lol. Hugs. That’s so frustrating when someone knows me, but I can’t remember them. At least you figured it out. Funny story! lol. Hugs.

I was actually talking to her (identical) twin sister.

The only strange thing that happens to me on a regular basis is people "know" I'm my brothers younger sister, because we look "So much alike" and it's "obvious" and how we both look exactly like my dad. And I just want to laugh at them because he's a step-brother and my step-father. But I never say anything otherwise, no point. Thankfully, I look nothing like my sister so I don’t get that!

Seriously if saw me how I "normally" look you'd laugh - especially after doing Turbo Kick for an hour. oh Jess! have you read Steve’s post on facebook about pictures? well I don’t exactly post the ugly ones of me.

We were in band together, he played sax and I played french horn so we sat by each other... football games, school functions you know - but never dinner and a movie or anything. In fact, I never even kissed him but I've always thought he was cute. He was the brother of my best friend at the time. bobby: I really thought I was going crazy for a minute
