Anyone have a twin that they do not know about? Apparently I have a twin and have had a different one each year. All four years at college, I have been told numerous times that a friend saw me in one of their classes. I have classes with some of my friends but when they say the class name I tell them it is not me in their class, despite telling them numerous times. I have never met the person they say is my twin and I never know what to think when they tell me. Sometimes it makes me laugh because of where they see the “twin.” Other times I feel really bad because it is not me and they want it to be.
Recently I was at dinner in the school cafeteria and one of my friends told me they saw me running that day. I know for a fact I had not gone for a run because I had to run errands and even went home that day. A different time I was in class and someone asked me if I had done the homework for one of the classes they are in. I said no and that I was not in that class. They laughed and told me to stop joking around and again asked if I did the homework. I said no again and that I had not done the homework because I have not taken the class in three years.
Does anyone else get told they have a twin? I have neighbors that are twins that look slightly different but get confused for each other all the time. When talking to them about this article, they said they used to switch places. One would go to the other person’s class and the teacher would have no idea. One of them told me they would ask the twin to go to work for them if they were not feeling up to going to work that day. Unless you truly study their faces, you could think they were the same person.
I always wished I had a twin so I could switch places with them and have more fun with that. I would go to the classes I liked and was good at and have them go to the classes I was not good at. I would make my twin go to my math class every day and I could sit in their science classes in addition to my science classes.
I would not like having a twin in the aspect of not being able to have your own “look.” I like being able to dress the way I do and not have to worry about someone dressing similarly to me. My mom is definitely not my sister by any means, but we dress similar without even planning it. Whenever we go to family functions, we always ask what the other is wearing so we do not wear the same colors or even the same outfit. Over the summer, we took our passport pictures on two different days. When we got our passports in the mail, we noticed we both wore navy. Of all the colors in our wardrobes, we both wore the same color.
I wish I had a twin but I love being the only girl in my family.
