If the universe is infinite, that means that not only is there an exact me and an exact you out there, but there are actually an infinite number of us doing exactly what we're doing now... and an infinite number doing just one tiny thing different... there's an infinite number of mes typing on a keyboard that is white, and an infinite number typing on a keyboard that is black.... every possible thing, is happening an infinite number of times... it's a lot to wrap your head around...

I don't think the universe can be infinite though. Because matter is finite. It has to end somewhere. And that somewhere would seem to be the "edge" of the universe. Maybe in parallel universes there is another you and another me and we're having a conversation about us. Weird... O_o

I reckon there might be other life forms out there beyond our Earth. I study Physics at school and I know that the universe is really huge! Our Earth is like a speck of dust compared to the universe! 
Also, the universe is still expanding so all the stars and galaxies are being stretched. There has to be some other life forms out there, there couldn't just be one earth in one big universe. There could be another you xor me on another planet far far away! You may never know! I don't know if aliens are really green with huge eyes and fly in UFOs, they may exist or it could be something made up. But there are planets able to hold life. Maybe one day we might have to move to another planet as Earth is so heavily polluted. It would be like the movie Wall E!

Haha! That is a very good point! Although if they had the technology to reach us, they probably have the technology to blow us away. So I don't think we'd be much of threat. But maybe one moral grounds?
