Do you feel sometimes that a certain situation happened or seen already but don't exactly know when and where?Its like an overwhelming sense of familiarity with something that you should'nt be familiar at all.I meet this guy that my friend introduced me in Singapore while where on our way to a restaurant for dinner. I have this sudden feeling that I met him before, like I've known him in the past and that were somehow connected!. The guy at first look at me and asked me personal information because he is feeling the same way.Did it happen to you in anyway?How do you react with it?Do you dig more info. to prove that your souls is somehow connected in this world?

I have experienced deja vu a couple of times. There is one experience that I especially remember. When I was still at school we had to write down which kinds of jobs we were interested in when we finished school and we had to spend one week with someone who had that type of job. I was interested in working with children and my parents knew a woman who had a small daycare center. They asked her if I could spend a week with her and she said yes. Inside her house there was a playground for the children. There was a room with lots of small plastic balls where the children could play. When the children were sleeping the woman's daughter and I played in the balls. I had a very, very strong feeling of deja vu. I felt that I had been there before and that I had experienced the situation before, but I had never met her daughter before and I had never been in the house before.

Yes a couple of times. Of course there are just times where the feelings are just grossly misplaced, where I just feel a lot of things that are just a figment of my own imagination. Then there are times where it does rather creepy, almost like it is something that happened before. Yet it doesn't seem to be the case, but somehow it is. Just like it is one huge faded memory right in the depths of my mind, where my recall might be rather suspect. I think that this does happen a fair few times to me when I am dreaming as well, in addition to the real world. Where I have a dream so vivid, it is almost like I feel as if it is something that has occurred before. But I naturally cannot dig it right out of my mind. But it is there, you better believe that it is there. De-ja vu is an intriguing thing. Is there something to it? Or is there just something that was inverted by our minds. Who really knows.

Yes, I've been in a situation like that before but I didn't mind it at all. In my opinion when we felt a deja vu is because we have been in that situation before and we just don't know, maybe we are aspiring for that situation to happen, we may not noticed it but our subconscious mind is recording it and when the time comes for that aspired situation to happen, that's the time we call it a deja vu.

Hi there, it does happen to me sometimes. It is strange and I do think deja vu is connected to my past life. And to answer your question whether I react to it or how I react to such incidences, I simply think for a second or two and ignore it. Maybe because I did not have same experience as yours when the two of you is actually feeling the same about the situation. If that is the case with me I will surely launch into an interviewer mode just to satisfy my curiosity. I wish we can find perfect explanation for this occurrences.
