Do you have a double?
I do I ran into her years ago in a mall where I grew up. People had been telling me for years about this woman who looked just like me. And DAY-AM if she didn't.

How about you??

1. If I ever met my double I would be like...
...okay, you're the clone that works a double shift and I am the clone that cashes the paychecks and just enjoys life in general.

2. Yes, and it was freaky!
Boarded the plane and sitting right next to me is a woman who was younger and blonde, but looked just like me! I couldn't take my eyes off her...very strange. Same eyes, same demeanor, same face not petite like me, BUT had the same figure! This happened about 10 years ago and I am still talking about it.

Did I say how freaky it was?

"they" say we all have a double, and I believe it now.

3. Apparently there is a girl in my city who is my age ...
and people in HS told me that she acted exactly like me - facial expressions , including the way she danced . I have never seen this girl before , but if I do , I am sure I will freak out .

4. evidently
I have a double here in my town, but I've never seen him. A few times, though, strangers have just started talking to me like an old friend... then it becomes clear I'm not who they think I am.

My boyfriend has a double, too. He's an identical twin.

9. Greg
I have one named "Greg." I have never met him, but his boyfriend (he's gay like me too!) was convinced I was him when I was in Atlanta. Greg and I kept missing each other. Then, a few years ago, here in Oklahoma, a man stopped me and started talking about the old HS days. I looked at him funny..and he said "I am sorry. I thought you were someone else." When I asked him, "Did you think I was Greg." He said "YES! Do you know him?" So, I guess someone out there named Greg looks like me.

11. Went to high school with him
we were mistaken for each other often, could switch classes and people would not notice. His mother was confused once, thought I was him.
lost track of him after high school

12. Someone told me I did awhile back....
that there's some woman who looks like me which actually elicited some positive emotional response in the person at the time.

Someone else recently told me I did as well (and it wasn't such a good thing apparently), but seemed, if anything, more like an odd line of bullshit given the circumstances and the person's unwillingness to even talk to me like a mature human being.

I am very much ME ME ME!!! :7

and that is all I will say

13. yes.
He is an english teacher at a local high school. On 3 occasions I've had people start talking to me thinking I was him, 2 were student and one was a parent. The parent went so far as to give me his name and how to contact him because he thought we should meet. I still have the info but never have pursued it.
