I'm an identical twin, my brother and I are 7 minutes apart. We're the only ones in our family and we use to hate being asked, "Are you twins?" by other people. We didn't think it was such a big deal that we looked the same. But we've grown to enjoy the bond it gives us. We use to switch classes in grade school but I flunked a math test for him so we had to stop.

I'm sorry, I appreciate you sharing that personal part of yourself. You know she's with you though, a bond like that can never be broken.

Im not an identical twin as obviously im female and hes male. Growing up people used to compare our heights by getting us to stand back-to-back. Some people said we looked alike which would frustrate us both. We could never play those 'twin pranks' but we have a close relationship. When we were at pre-school there was a total of 5 twins and that was before we started!!! Must have been something in the water lol

Cool, I know some twins who aren't identical, I wasn't trying to be biased cause I have a copy of me walking around. I know, I hated having to stand back to back, or smile or talk, sometimes I felt like a monkey in a zoo. About the water, must have been what they were doing after they drank the water!

There are twins in the history of our family. My step nan is a twin (on my dad's side) Strangely enough, from doing our family tree I have found someone who has a daughter called Jacqueline and a son called Christopher (they're not the same age) but thats what me and my twin bro are called. We never knew about these people until last year when my mum started digging into the family tree!! How bizarre is that!!!??
Must have been what they did after the water, I agree with you there!! lol

My nephews are NOT identical but they look exactly alike. One of them passed the other's driver's test for his license!! We used to be able to tell them apart because one of them got a scar on the middle of his forehead. Well, the other got a similar scar on his forehead in almost the same place. I'm sure, knowing them, that there are many kinds of pranks that they pulled in and out of school because they look so much alike. My poor sister. They were 8 lbs 9oz and 9lbs when they were born!!

You must or people wouldn't say anything, some people are facinated by twins because they want to understand the bond. The movie "Nell" with Jodie Foster, nobody I know got that movie, I did, I guess its a twin thing, like "Its a Jeep Thing."

That is awesome that you have a twin. I personally don't but I know two guys that are twins and happen to be my friends. That's funny how you said you used to switch clases and you ended up failing his math test. I bet he really like ya for that one? lol well it nice that you and your brother have agood realtionship and can communicate like you do regardless of what people may say about you two being twins. Take care.

We even use to pretend to be each other when talking to our girlfriends, our services are no longer used though.

We sorta act the same still, we do dress alike sometimes. I hadn't seen my bro in 2 months and we showed up wearing the same outfit.
