Dated girl who has a twin sister for a few months. Went to visit her family during Christmas and ended up staying the night. Next day I woke up, went downstairs and saw my 'girlfriend' preparing breakfast for the family, who would undoubtedly be quite hungover after last nights events. I though this was very sweet of her. She glanced at me coming into the kitchen and said good morning. I walked up behind her, put my arms around her waist, kissed her neck and told her good morning as well. Then I heard the words "hey, wrong sister". I had a major "deer caught in the headlights" moment, as I just stood there with my arms around her not being able to process what I just heard. She turned around, still in my arms, pointed at her face and said look. The one thing that could easily differentiate her from my girlfriend is a small birthmark under her left eye. I jumped away from her like I was dodging a speeding car and apologized profusely. She was dying of laughter though and told me she figured one day in their lives something like this would happen. Turns out the two sisters didn't pay much attention to which clothes belonged to who, and she ended up wearing a shirt that my girlfriend would often wear, which is what caused the mistake from my end. Unfortunately my girlfriend was not amused by this whole thing and it ended up causing a strain in our relationship, eventually ending it. She for some reason decided that I must have subconsciously known it was her sister and that I liked her sister more. Oh well. I still talk to the sister regularly and I always ask her if I'm talking to the right sister this time, which we then have a laugh about.

He got pulled over by the police and they said: ‘are you (dads name)?’ And my dad said: ‘Yes?’ And they said ‘is your birthday (dads birthday but one year before), and he said ‘yes, except I was born in (year after).’ Then they checked his driver’s license. Apparently there was a person who looked exactly like him, same name and birthday, except one year older, and was known for steal cars. I think about that story when people mention doppelgängers.

We're not even identical, but one time a teacher praised me for my twin sister's amazing maths grade, when I got a pretty below average grade (despite being in the same class) and I had to explain she'd mistaken me for my sister. That incident still sticks with me and honestly it absolutely destroyed my self esteem. It was one of many, many instances where my twin sister outshone me in school.

I used to have a girl in my class with an identical twin sister, but her sister had already graduated school (different courses can range from 4 year to 6 year, her sister did 4 years, my classmate did a 5 year course) but I'd seen them together plenty of times prior. So one day she invites some people to go check out some stores around the city. We're in an antique store and she rounds a corner, then suddenly goes "Oh hey! I didn't expect to see you heeee... oh." I round the corner, she was talking to a mirror, thinking her sister was in the same store. Fun detail: She and her sister have completely different fashion styles so they're usually easy to tell apart based on that, but I guess she's less used to having to tell herself apart from her twin like the rest of us were lol

I’ve got a really cringe one. Not a twin but my mom and I look a lot alike. It was the middle of the night and I had to use the bathroom. I was wearing a sports bra and sweats. Since everyone was asleep, I didn’t bother to put on a shirt and went and did my business. Afterwards, turned off the bathroom light, before opening the door to leave, as my mom and step dads room was right across from the bathroom, and they kept their door open for the dog. At this point my step dad was leaving the room and I said “sorry” cause I wasn’t wearing a shirt and shut the bathroom door really quick to avoid more awkwardness. And to my absolute horror, he opened the door and caressed my hip as he was walking passed me to the toilet, ripped a fat one, and opened the lid. I was so freaking panicked that I was frozen for a couple seconds before leaving and darting to my room and hiding under my covers in bed. Was honestly very worried that he had some intentions. But he never showed up to my room. The next day I told my mom and she talked to my stepdad. he was also horrified and came to talk to me apologizing profusely for what happened and explained he thought I was my mom since he was half asleep and made the family my favorite food for dinner that night and just kept saying sorry. He’s been married to my mom for almost 10 years now and he’s a really great guy, and great grandpa to my son and brothers kids. I was 13 and am almost 22, never had another incident like that. Was an honest and very freaking horrifically embarrassing mistake 😅

my grandfather had a twin brother who died when they were about 22-23. This was in India in the 50s, my grandpa worked as a surveyor for the Government and because his job was essential they couldnt let him off early to go to the funeral. Finally he got out of work and hopped on his motorcycle and had ride all the way back to 4 cities over which took him about 2 hours. Finally he got back home for the aftermath at night where in our culture the family of the deceased gathers the rest of the close family and relatives and hold a banquet for dinner. Some of the cousins were drinking and standing outside to guard for burglars and along rides in my grandpa on his motorcycle, and the guards under the dark night couldnt see who was riding up the hill and got through the gate, so they shined a flashlight in his eyes as hes riding up the hill, after a long and tiered day and riding the motorcycle for 2 hours my grandpa was rightfully pissed and yelled at his cousins about shining the light in his eyes, and because they lived up a hill his deep loud voice echoed through the air magnifying it, and his drunk cousins thought the ghost of my grandpa's brother came back to attend his own funeral banquet and ran inside crying about the "ghost rider" causing everyone to rush outside to see what the commotion was about. My grandpa was still pissed and the cousins had to go and physically touch him to prove that he was real and everyone else had a good laugh about it.

Dating an identical twin. Hugged and tried to kiss the wrong twin in front of our entire science class. 😂

Not really embarrassing but two of my best friends are twins and apparently a guy who attended our middle school told them he would “date one of them” as if they were exactly alike. They look identical but have very different interests so it bothered them that he basically treated them as if they were exactly alike

not a twin, not even a sister but my coworker and I are strikingly similar. we were born 12 years apart, in almost opposite parts of the country and looking like our father's side of the family. we both have the same body shape, height, hair color and wear glasses but we also started on the company the same way. we started on the same shop and got anxiety attacks from the person in charge and asked to be transferred to a different shop, ending in the same one. we work in opposite shifts and to the people who doesn't know us a lot, it looks like we are the same person. WE EMBRACED IT AND FAKE BEING THE OTHER TO JOKE WITH EVERYONE

We had two classrooms for 6th graders, and a pair of twins decided that it would be funny to switch classes one day. Our teacher noticed that something was off because of their personality differences. He asked the twin it, and his guess was right. Because we were halfway done with the day already, my teacher just let them stay.😂

I'm a fraternal twin with my brother (I'm female), and I remember telling a few folks how I was a twin and showed them a picture of myself and my brother side-to-side (he's a brunette and I'm a strawberry blonde, same hazel eyes, same beauty mark on the same cheek, the similarities stop there) and they asked "Oh wow, are you identical?" 😂😂 No, ah, no we are most certainly not. Not even close.

I thought a boy didn't want to see his friends see him talking to me, which was why he would only be nice to me in certain classes. It honestly took a year until I had a class with both of them that I realized there were two of them.

When there's a visual carbon copy of you running around, you have to learn to be VERY understanding of, well, misunderstandings. XD Especially if, say, your twin's SO comes up and grabs your behind, you automatically assume they mixed you up with your twin before jumping to any other conclusion first.

Not a twin, but this is funny. I was hanging out with a friend, "Paul," freshman year of college and it was part of my regular routine to go over to his dorm after my classes on the way to the dining commons. One day, I walk in and he has a different haircut, slightly more facial hair, and glasses. Apparently, he had an identical twin, "Peter," who went to a different school about an hour away from us. I walk into Paul's dorm room, say something to the effect of "I didn't know you wear glasses" and "let's eat." He's acting a little strange and said he already ate, which was a little unusual at that time of day. As it turns out, Paul and Peter had switched places without telling anyone (except for the one girl on campus who knew them both). I figured his hair (and stubble) were because he was wearing a wig or styling it differently. He was also a very hairy guy who could grow a beard way faster than I could, so the fact that he had what would have been a few days growth for me overnight didn't really surprise me. He was a theater guy so I didn't really think anything was too far off. I went off to eat and then the next time I saw Paul, he was the same old Paul in appearance and explained the whole thing. He couldn't believe that it hadn't dawned on me that it was a different guy and thought that the hair, facial hair, and glasses would have been a dead giveaway. He laughed at my idiocy. Paul transferred at the end of the year and I never actually properly met Peter and never saw Peter and Paul together except in pictures.

Finally, my French teacher had a period of time where she got me and my sister confused so often that there was an agreement that if she got my name wrong, I would go silent and give her a death glare straight through her soul, and she often realised she had said the wrong one and corrected herself I don't understand how people would want to play tricks on others, Mabey its because I'm sou fed up with being called my twins name

Not a twin but I do have an embarrassing story from high school about my friends who are twins. My freshman year of high school I had one of my classes with this guy I knew as Damian. I did not know he had a brother. I didn't find this out until I was a sophomore. For my entire Freshman year I never saw Damian and Demetri at the same time. Apparently I had met Demetri multiple times outside of class and just assumed I was still talking to Damian. No one corrected me. Demetri would just respond to Damian's name whenever I saw him and our other mutual friends would play along and act like that was Damian even when they all knew he was actually Demetri. When I finally found out there was two of them we all laughed about it and we stayed friends all through high school. I kind of lost touch with them after we graduated but it's still kind of funny even though it was slightly embarrassing at the time that I went a full year thinking they were the same person.

Their mom, my friend, and one twin went to go get fresh foods while the other twin and I went to go look for dessert options. While debating what cookies to get an elderly man commented how nice we were being about it and said he and his twin always fought about everything. We met back up at checkout and said what happened. Mom found it funny. The twins and I were trying to figure out how i could look anything like them. My friend didn't really care 😂

Not an identical or even an Irish twin but people think I’m my older brother a lot. He’s gay, I’m not. A lot of homophobic drivel thrown at me that was intended for him. Sigh

I have sisters 2 years younger than me that are identical twins and they had a few times they switched. They don't look alike anymore, but my aunts are also identical twins and I couldn't tell them apart for the longest time! I've heard many switcharoo stories.

I went to school with sororal twins who looked a lot alike, but not totally. I seemed to be the only one who could tell them apart. I think them being black in a mostly white, rural midwestern town was a factor. They were constantly being confused by teachers Then theres me, I dont look like my siblings that much except the usual clearly-related archetypes. I transitioned in high school and my brother was a freshman the next year and he was confused with boy me pretty often I also have two younger fraternal brothers but theyre completely different and never had a problem

My dad is a twin. He and his twin are the two brothers who look the least alike. However, they walk the same, and they have the same distinctive cough. On multiple occasions, I've been facing away from the door and think that my dad just walked in only to turn and discover that it's actually my uncle.

Not an identical twin, but I have been mistaken for my older brother. My brother and I are the only children of our dad and look similar but have enough differences to where we shouldn't really be mixed up. And yet, it still happens. My brother and I both worked at the same fast food restaurant for a while before I quit. While I was there, my brother had long hair. I have long hair. So coworkers and even customers would mix us up from time to time. It also didn't help when he would give me his sweater whenever I was cold, and he would take mine when he was cold. Most times, we would be mixed up because someone saw us from the back of our heads. They'd see long hair and assume it was the other person. Imagine how many times I would hear "Hey, __brothers name__! Oh wait, nevermind... sorry!" Honestly it's kind of funny to look back on. Another thing, my older sister is very often mistaken for our mother (before anyone asks, we have different dads).

We had an over abundence of twins when I was in school, so I got fairly good at telling them apart. 😅 It was the set of triplets that fucked me up royally. I had a class with all three in highschool, but I was never very social so I'd never talked to them. I only found out they were triplets by eavesdropping. As a side note, it's entirely possible to not know someone's name for a long time. It couple be because of audio processing issues so you didn't get it when introduced, or a bad short term memory so you forgot right after you were told. And if you're awkward, like me, you just don't ask because you don't want to come off as rude, and the longer it goes on, the worse it feels. It took me like, 9 months to learn and remember the names of my coworkers at my last job, and there was only like 8 of us. I saw them every day for 6hr shifts, but the guy in the video probably only saw his customers for a short time once, maybe twice a week. I give him a pass.

No twins but I look so similar to my mom and we’re about the same height. People have gotten us confused and or thought we were siblings. This has caused some funny yet also awkward incidents. My boyfriend took me to prom and my mom drove me. He sees her and they talk and he casually mentions she’s cute in front of me her and his dad. Soon we head in and we start talking and eventually the fact that my mom drove me there came up and when he heard that he froze and just goes ‘wait that was your mom?’ And I respond ‘I thought you knew?’ ‘No I thought that was your sister’ ‘I told you I only have a younger sister’ he just stands there confused and embarrassed until we both laugh. My mom didn’t mind since this isn’t the first time we’ve been confused as sisters.

Not a twin, but my little brother looks similar to me in several regards, about 4 years younger. This age difference meant that as I got out of highschool he got in and he has told me about how several times teachers either called him by my name or asked him if he was my brother. The poor guy lived in my shadow, fortunately the teachers had liked me, but it meant he was compared to me constantly and I can't imagine those were easy shoes to walk in.

Actually an identical twin, no embarrassing stories though. Sometimes a teacher would tell me that I was in the wrong lunch period but they didn't get mad and I'd just explain that wasn't in the wrong place. Or I went to his classes to pick up his missed work when he was sick and the teacher told me to take my seat. Or many a teacher I had would suddenly tell me "I didn't know you had a twin" randomly. Or just be surprised the first time they saw us together. Or a customer at work would say "they sure have you running around everywhere today" which was kinda my job but then they mentioned where they saw me and I'd tell them that was my brother. What's more awkward is when people wanted us to stand next to each other so they could stare and "figure out the difference." They would confidantly declare some supposed visual marker and you just know they don't get it at all. The same thing would happen later the same day with someone else equally confidant saying the opposite and it's like ok yeah sure have fun. Plenty of people could tell the difference between us though, but when asked to how to tell us apart they'd draw a blank. We just look different. The exact shapes and sounds and behaviors can't be distinguished with language, so all the words you could write down be the same on paper. I think the brain just needs repeated exposure before it decides to store 2 similar sets of stimuli separately instead of lumping them together.

There's nothing wrong with not being able to tell the difference though we're used to it, if you need to know but can't tell just remember what shoes we're wearing, it doesn't have to be deep or meaningful it just needs to work right? "But what if you switched shoes?" Why would we ever do that? We're not trying to trick people and I don't want to wear his shoes, that would would just feel weird and uncomfortable. I chose my shoes bc they're most comfortable for me, I broke them in so they feel familiar. His shoes would just feel weird and alien and gross. Why would I do that just to mess with you? I hardly know you you know?

My twin and I are not identical and are opposite genders, but one time at a track meet, he was hanging out with his friends and a couple of random kids and i ran over to him to tell him about my race. the random kids were like, "ohhh, is she your girlfriend?" and when we told them we were twins for some reason they all started cheering!

The funniest time was a few months ago, though, where I was at work, and it was slow, so I gave my mom a call to ask about something my coworkers and I were talking about. I put her on speaker phone and they were blown away. Apparently, I also exhibit a lot of physical characteristics from my moms side of the family. One time, I was walking around our local gardeners market, where my parents had a food booth, and was approached by a random older guy, who asked me "You're a *mom's mothers maiden name*, aren't you?" So yeah, that was fun. In highschool, we had a set of triplets. Two were identical, and one was fraternal. I was surprised when I found out who the fraternal one was, I never would have guess she was related. Anyways, I didn't interact with them much, though one twin had the same musical class as me. I'm proud to say that I was actually able to get to the point I could tell the two apart.

I always used to get very confused in High School cause one of my classmates had an older sister who looked vaguely similar to her. I never confused them for one another cause to me they only looked related not identical. But everyone else confused them for one another multiple times for years and I never got it. Like the younger sibling was stockier and had a softer face, they both had red hair, freckles and names that started with the same letter. But I never looked at one or the other and thought “hmm yes, sams person.”

Goodnight and guard your booty. LOL 😆 🤣 😂

I was embarrassed, but I wasn't the twin. My aunts were. I had twin aunts who were visiting with my Mom and they were all sitting together at a table. My mom wasn't part of the equation, yet, when I walked in, I couldn't tell which one was my own mother. It actually took a few minutes, that's how alike they all looked. I didn't let on, because I knew they would mock me. lol

I don’t have a twin, but people always thought me and my older sister was twins, we even got mistaken as each other

Surprised no ‘my twins a sex offender’ moments

there was only one pair of twins that I knew of when I was in school. They were sisters, and I never really knew either of them well enough to get them mixed up, but whenever I saw them, I would say hi, calling them "The Wonder Twins"

I work at a daycare, and I like to refer to some twins there as the wonder twins, or the disaster twins, depending on the day, and when they work together it's double the trouble double the fun

one of these stories reminded me of something my mum kept telling me(female) and my brother. When we were little, apparently, a lot of people assumed we were twins. Even though i was much bigger than him (since we're 1 yr and 2 months apart), and i just find it funny.

"HEEEY how are you?! I haven't seen you in forever!" "heeey I'm great how bout you?" Starts hugging "Everything is fine" "Good good... who are you tho?" OP tightens grip while other person desperately tries to escape from hug

I have differemt color eyes, and I met someone who moved away in elementary who I was good friends with, and moved back. He saw my brother in the hallway. He waked up to him thinking my brother was me, and said "WOAH YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR EYE COLOR!" My brother has green eyes, and I have 1 blue eye, so he thought I could change my eye color 😂

When I was in high school. I wasn't in any lessons with this girl but felt like I walked past her about 20 times a day. Turns out it wasn't one girl but a set of triplets. I didn't didn't know until my leaving ceremony 😂

My dad is an identical twin... A woman who is a friend of my grandparents who have known them since BEFORE they were born STILL can't tell them apart... My dad and uncle are 60 this year. Also, my dad has always been a bit on the bigger side, well, he lost a lot of weight before my uncles wedding 16 years ago and was his best man. I sh^t you not, I could not tell them apart by looking at them. Thankfully, my uncle wore a red waistcoat while my dad wore gold. They couldn't take them off because neither me, my sister or my uncles wife could tell them apart! It was so surreal! That's the first and only time that's ever happened to me or my sister!

I have a colleague whom I always chatter with at work. We are always making smart and cheeky comments to each other when we meet each other in the office. So one day he comes into my office because he needs something, we chat a bit and he walks off. 5 minutes or so later I need to go to the copy room and meet hin outside in the hallway. I was grinninand said "Long time no see". He looked at me like a deer in headlights and said "Oh sorry I think you mean my brother. I am Ben". He looked so similar to my colleague, he had a similar haircut, glasses and even wore almost an identical shirt that day. Never did my colleague mention he had a twin brother nor did he mention he would visit that day 😅. I felt slightly embarrassed

I have a twin sister. We’re not identical but I remember scaring off one boyfriend of hers because “having naughty time with her feels like having it with the both of you now that I know she has a brother “ in other words, now he sees me in her face every time he goes for a kiss. The last time we met she finally made a comment about us finally looking different from each other meaning that wasn’t the first comment she’s gotten lol. It’s not freudian, just a little bit of sibling teasing.

I remember when I was a junior in highschool during my marching band season we had a pair twins one was in my section the other was in a different( saxophone my section ) (flute the other twin ) one day the director said that my section could go home so I walk up to the twin and tell her to go home . 2 minutes later the flute section leader is asking where is ( the twin that plays the flute ) Turns out I Told the wrong twin to go home so they both left because another member told the twin ( the one that plays the sax ) . Yeah it was an akward time

I had this experience back in high school where my teammate’s girlfriend and other teammates would mistake us for the other. I quickly realized we were related when my uncle said that I must know his grandson since we were on the same track team. I never even knew my uncle had grandkids before then.

I went to college with a pair of twins. I knew them both, but never knew there were two of them for three years. I just thought I kept getting his name wrong. “Brian?” “No, Mark.” “Hi, Mark.” “No, Brian.” My brother in law is a twin, and I’m sure he did lots of stuff, but I was there when he went to a church conference. There was a woman who knew his father had died twenty years before. He was the spitting image of his father, and you could hear her gasp across a sea of 500 people.

Not a twin, not even family, but my teachers and peers back in my middle school and high school days would confuse me for my best friend and vise versa. This happened with two different friends of mine, mind you I don’t look anything like either of the two friends and our names were no where near similar either 😭

I once thought two classmates were twins. No. The brother (who acted the most immature) had a class alongside his little sister

So my brother has a doppelganger, and I have one. We've met his, but I've yet to see mine, though it'll extend her lifespan if we don't meet. She's a really well known "working girl" and no matter how much I've changed my style and appearance I still get approached by creepy dudes asking for another round or trying to convince me that i am actually this other girl. It's led to lots of assault and I now have a very dark and violent mindset concerning strangers and am very much the "I'll talk to you on your ambulance ride to the hospital"

My sibling had identical triplets in her elementary school there was a lot of “I thought you were the same person” and then a third identical person would turn the corner

I'm not a twin but me and my sister are 1 year apart -(Irish twins as my mum from up north says)- and look alike, enough to be mistaken as twins for years, my other sister accidentally cut my sisters hair too short so she had a bowl cut for years and people kept coming over to me as if they knew me from the day before only to find out I'm not my sister

Not a twin, but a lot of ppl get my sister and I mixed up. So my sister, 8th grade, is kinda popular in middle school. She’s a cheerleader, straight A student, has lots of friends, etc. and I, 10th grade, am none of those things. I was in my PE class when a freshmen came up to me and said “hey [insert sisters name] I thought you were in 7th grade last year.” I had to then explain how that was my sister and I’m actually a sophomore. My sister and I don’t think we look alike at all, but we get mixed up a lot. Even family mix us up.

I have an identical twin but we don't look extremely alike for twins. I usually have no embarassing mix-up moments because she wears her hair long and I wear a pixie cut but we get confused online a lot: Our style of writing seems to be super similar and even though our profile pictures are very different (and our names, too), it often happens that someone on social media or in a forum talks to me about something she has written. That's a bit annoying especially if the person is calling me out for something I have never said.

When I was a kid, me and my brother were friends with twins who lived up the street. They were identical, but we spent so much time with them that eventually it was easy for us to tell them apart, but the 4 of us took karate together and the only way the karate instructor could tell them apart was because one of them had a scar on his head. In high school there were two sets of twins. two of them I never really had classes with, so I couldn't tell them apart. The other twins looked like twins, but different enough that I never mistook one for the other. At another school there were two girls who were sisters, but for the longest time I didn't know they were twins. They had drastically different hairstyles, but even if they had similar hairstyles I don't think they would look like twins.

I dated identical twin sisters. It didn't last long. But because I got close to them, I was able to see the small differences between the two. They we're always amazed when I just walk up and identify who is who.

Once I was in a more casual meeting at work and the fact that I was a 3D modeller hobbyist came into play. One guy approached and said: "could you talk to me or my brother later? We are rendering these videos and it take ages for each frame". They were technical draftsman, they were used to 3D software, but not to rendering engineering videos. Later that week I found the guy after work, sit with him and ask him to explain the issues with rendering. It came up that the model was not optimized and the scene settings were not properly configured. We went into almost midnight setting up and I shove off months of his render schedule. The following day I was having coffee and the two guys appeared to thank me - the one who asked me for help and the one who was stopped by an unknown engineer that held him after work for 6 hours :-)

Knew identical twins in high school. They would randomly switch classes, just cause. And they shared all their clothes. So sometimes I’d be like “Hey Shine, how do you solve this problem.” And she’d be like “Idk, ask my twin. I’m not in this class.” 😅

I don't have an identical twin, but I went to school with someone with a near identical name. Same last name, similar middle name (hers was a feminine version of mine, and mine was a male version of hers), and completely different first names. I only knew of her at the start of me going to school there when we ended up going to each others first class, at the first day of school, due to a clerical error. Graduation rehearsal was the first and only time we ever talked to each other and it was brief, but pleasant. When it came time for the two of us to walk up, she was first. When it was my turn and they read my name, they used her middle name for me. Pissed me off cause I already got picked on at school. When it came time for the actual graduation, I made it a point to correct the reader before they had the chance to mess it up again. BTW, we are not related in the slightest, we could not look any more different from one another, and us sharing a last name isn't too surprising because it's a common last name.

i’m friends (and have been since kindergarten) with people who are identical twins, i can only tell them apart cause one is a bit taller and has a mole on his neck and the other doesn’t

Oh I got one for you. Once along a time my brother and used to look alike during our early years but not anymore. For a bit of back story, my brother and I used to lime this girl that was a short ways from where we lived and we would visit every once in awhile, after awhile my brother and her started dating and things for fine for a few months but one day my brother had left her for another. I wasn't aware of this till a Saturday when she sends her brother and a friend of his to teach my brother a lesson. Unfortunately this is where I get dragged into the mess because she had shown a picture of my brother to them and they had immediately headed over my home. This was the time when owning a cellphone was nearly impossible to have. So anyway they had spotted me walking down a canal that's right next to my home and I was vlackberry picking because it was summer and they were in season and grow really well with lots of water. They came up to me and asked is I remember the now ex girlfriend and when I said, ya? They jumped and started beating like a bunch of hoodlums they were. I was a junior in high school and was constantly playing sports, so I was in pretty good shape. Now to be fair my temper is much better than it was in my youth so I know I went way overboard but at the time I was fighting for my life. Anyway as they were jumping me and started wailing on me like I owed them money i was startled at their actions but quickly reacted and made them regret ever meeting with me. My brother and I fist fight all the time so I'm well versed in give others a taste of pain. When all was said and done both guys where laying with a broken arm each and a bloody face. They had gotten a few hits on me but they would only leave me with bruises. After I questioned them on what there flipping problem was they told me their side and I got a jist of the story. After telling them I was the brother and they're idiots I walked way and went to the ex to confront her for the crap I just went through. When she saw me she raged at me that my brother a pig and a womanizer and he'll get what he deserved. I then told her that he won't because her henchmen came after me and I sent packing. At this she was really pale and finally noticed that I had bruises to my face and began to apologize which I told her not to bother.

Her brother paid in full and with at I tuned and left. A few hours later they're was a knock at my door and there was a police officer at my door and asked me if I was in an altercation with two boys. I told him what had happened and that I was defending myself. After the officer told my statement he left and never heard anything about it. Not long after though my brother had finally came bk home and as a greeting I slapped him full force in the face and said you ex said hi.

Story 6 was wild

#21 killed me. 😂😂😂

Not a twin, but all the cousins in my family look shockingly similar specially as kids, once, I was with a slightly older than me cousin and our uncle (uncle for both of us, grandma had 3 kids), we were on the stairs walking up to my grandma’s and some lady was coming down, she looked at our little group and told our uncle “they look exactly like their dad”

There was a twin in a college class I attended - he hadn't mentioned he had a twin, or that his twin was attending the same college. Midterm exam comes along, and he contacts the teacher to say he was sick, and arranges an alternate time to take the exam. So we're all standing around outside the classroom right after, and who should walk by the room BUT THE GUY WHO HAD BEEN TOO SICK TO ATTEND! (Or so we thought). Seriously, like 5 of us went out and confronted him - he was initially confused (understandably) then said "Oh, you must think I'm my twin brother" which got a lot of "Oh, yeah, right, like we're going to believe that!" Poor guy finally pulled out his ID so everyone would leave him alone. He was remarkably good humored about the whole thing.

“I AM NOT ALPHINAUD!!!”

Not a twin but my younger siblings are, my parents and my relatives could not tell them apart, but I can and my older brother, too. I keep telling them that they have different eye shapes and thickness of their hair, they still can't tell them apart. So everytime they want to call one of the twins, they pull me or my brother aside and asked us which twin is which.

My uncle on my mother's side had no idea that my grandfather on my dad's side had an identical twin. He went to my grandfather's funeral in 2012 and almost passed out thinking he saw a ghost 😅

My mom is an identical twin (though over the years she and my aunt have become very different looking people) and when she and my dad were young, (14-16) my dad had a thing for her and his friend had a thing for my aunt. So they devised a plan during a get together where they were all riding four wheelers around my dad’s place and my dad tapped the shoulder of who he THOUGHT was my mom and said, “You want to ride with me?” My aunt turned around and needless to say, both my dad and his friend were disappointed with the twin they ended up riding with.

The bald guys brother should have just screamed DIMOXYNIL!

My mom is a twin. Her and her twin lived in different states but still managed to dress similar and have the same haircut. So when our family would go visit my mom twin in her state random people will just go up to my mom and start talking to her. It always confused me growing up since I was always able to tell my mom and her twin apart. We later moved to the same area as her twin and I would always run into my uncle (twins husband) so I would talk to him...I'm Hispanic so we greet each other with a kiss on the cheek. One of the workers at the deli thought he was cheating on his wife and the other worker thought I was his daughter (he only has sons). I look very similar to my mom's side of the family so it made lots of sense that I looked like his daughter. One of my brothers looks like my mom's twin's son. I'm a quad so people used to get me and my sister confused to the point that we served each other detention...my sister always got me in trouble and it doesn't help that our names are similar too so teachers really did guilty by association a lot. 🥲

Not a twin but I get mistaken for my sister and we both look young for our age. Funniest one was when I was a regular at a dance club for years. I was there enough the bouncer, DJ and most bartenders knew me. Being a cute perky blonde, I’m hard to miss, even if I’m only a little over 5 foot. So, this story takes place in 1990, when I’m 25 and I’ve been going there about 6 years. Every time I come back from dancing, my drink is gone. So I tell the bartender and they replace it for free. This keeps happening for about 2 weeks. About 6-10 times a night. Hey, I’m getting about 6 drinks for the price of 2, so not exactly complaining. One night, after the bar closes, I go for food and as I’m leaving the restaurant, I approach one of my friends and the barback. They’re having a simple exchange where he keeps saying “No” and she replies, “Yes”. Back and forth, several times. When I get to them they both turn to me and she says, “show him your ID.” Confused, I take out my ID and hand it to him. He looks at it and his jaw hits the floor. After a few seconds he stammered that he thought I was 18. He’s 19 and the only reason he gets in is because he works there. But this isn’t the end of the story. I go back the next night and run into him and the bouncer. Barback (pointing to me): Do you know how old she is? Bouncer: yeah, she’s my age. Me (now I’m confused because I thought Bouncer was in his 30’s): Really? Bouncer: yeah, we went to (my) high school together. Me: yeah, I went there. Wait, what year did you graduate? Bouncer: 75, same as you. Me: I graduated in 83 but my sister graduated in 75. So for 6 years this guy thought I was my older sister and hadn’t notice the different name or the year on my ID. Just another one of the many times I got mistaken for my older sister.

My sister and I were born a little under 2 years apart but used to be mistaken for twins all the time, us both having our hair long to donate it didnt help. Now that we're older we dont look as similar but she would get mistaken as our mother sometimes when they worked at the same store. Imo, she and our mom look alike, and she and i look alike, bit my mom and I dont as much. That could also be because its me im talking about and I notice all the little differences about me and her but still even if I were to grow my hair out again and make it wavy like my moms im certain I would never get mistaken as her.

As someone who goes to the same shop every other day for 5 years with mostly the same employees staffing it the whole time, I can honestly say I don't know any of their names except for the owner. I only know his name because his mom who works the cash register will reference him by name. He just calls her mom, so I have no idea what her name is. 😅 I did learn the shop dog's name but they stopped bringing him in due to Covid.

slightly related but I'm an only child and on the first day of school every year I always have at least one teacher who asks me if I have a brother or sister. they always asked one or the other, never both. Turns out there was a girl two grades higher than me who had the same last name and looked kinda like my mom, but I've never understood people asking me if I have a brother (especially since that gets asked more)

My brother and I got mistaken for twins by two sisters who we mistakenly thought were twins.

I got a fraternal twin sister. She has a different hairstyle from mine and really different interests and personality, but most people mistake us as much as they can and seem to not give a damn about telling us apart. It's hella frustrating! Am I the only one?

My brother is 2.5 years older than me, but people still think we are twins lol

Okay, not an identical twin, but friends with them So, in third grade or so, in PE, we were playing throwball or smth and I met a girl there who was pretty good at it. Let's refer to her as Aira. She was explaining the rules and stuff and we had the same shoes, not fit for games. Those shoes were pretty new, about a month old, so I thought about wearing it to school, although I knew we had PE. Aira, did have another pair of shoes to wear to PE, but she had accidently worn the 'not fit for games' shoes. So, we began talking about how hard it is to run around in them, and became close friends soon after. Fast-forward to around 2 months later, it was dispersal time and i was going to my bus and I saw her. I waved at her excitedly. She waved at me back, but with a confused face. The face you'd make when a stranger was waving at you. I was just making eye contact and wondering why she made that face, and BOOM. Her twin (Aira) came walking from behind her. I had this strange feeling. "SHE HAD A TWIN?" Now I got it. I was waving at her twin (who did not know me back then). I asked her if they were twins, even tho I could see that they were (I was in 3rd grade bruh) and she said yes (ofc). Later we became friends.

My sister and I have been mistaken as twins in the past by strangers

I'm not a twin but have been mistaken for someone else three times. One was a snow cone/ice cream shop. She asked how my father was doing. This confused me for many reasons. 1 I don't discuss my family with shop keepers. Even if I'm a semi regular and second I went everywhere with my mother as 1 my parents were divorced and my mother had full custody and 2 my father had died many years ago. Never went back. 2 Went to tour a technical college and this lady thought i was someone else. I didn't end up attending but not for that reason. The last time this couple came up to me at work and asked if I was leaving. I told them the truth that i had no idea what they were talking about. I guess they took that to mean I wasn't leaving or whatever. I'm not even sure I'd want to meet this twin.

HEY! MY NAME IS OLIVER AND I AM PRETTY SURE I WOULDN’T LIKE THAT EITHER!

There were triplets in my middle school and like 6 or so twins more or less. I remember walking and seeing Triplet 1 going to the east side of the building, and when I got to the second floor I thought he quickly got into a language arts class, then when I went to gym I was so confused because I thought I saw him go elsewhere. I told a friend that I was having an off day she said that the guy was a triplet. Still have the yearbook to this day. PS they had twin sisters in the 8th grade and we were in 6th. I can’t imagine their poor mother 😅

Not identical twin, but two of my best friends and myself looked really like we were triplets... Long brown hair, glasses, same height and slim figure... It didnt help much that we sat together all high school 😂 the teachers always handed out the test results to the wrong person and called us by the wrong name 😂 got to the point were we kept our name cards on the tables, didnt help much tho 😂

9:40 I can sympathize. I've had the same dental hygienist for 3 years. Still can't remember her name, even if we talk every six months.

A comment to the creator: you stop learning names in a field where every two weeks marches a new bunch of people in and out in the next 2. why shall I remember names? Even with people I talk with. They are gone by the end of the month anyway xD°
