Hey I have just realize that it really is great to have a twin sister. I could just imagine looking at the reactions of people when they would mistake either one of us for the other!! and best of all I got to have many friends because of my twin sister and that goes the same with her too, why? because when someone would mistake me for her or her for me they would just actually say, " Oh what the hell you're just the same faces so it wouldn't make any difference if I just talk to you." and eventually because of more than a few times where my friends and her friends would mistake us we somehow made each of our friends my and her friends too! and we get to fool people and even attend each other's classes.

I would not have minded having a twin myself, but what I would have minded is having twins as babies! I was not that young when my children were born, but thank goodness the two came at different times and I love both the girl and the boy, although they are now nearly adults now!

I could not do much about the way they look, but I would want those twins to be individuals in their own right, with their own identity!

Have you noticed, most parents of twins, loves dressing up their kids like they were the same person. they were the same color, have the same haircut. If you have identical twins, will you try to make them similar or do you want them to be individuals with their own identity.

good day otakumarie, when i was still a child, i wish i was born with a twin sister or brother. so during those times, i have asked my mom if it is possible to have an upcoming baby to be a twin. but, according to my mom, it is on the genes. and since the genes of my mom does not any indication that she can bear a twin so it is not possible to have a twin in my siblings.

there are twins who acts like they were the same person. I remember in some competitons, twins are counted as 1 person. sounds unfair but I had seen it done so many times. I remember in the news there were sisters who are triplets and they competed as 1 person in a beauty pageant, they walk together an act identical as they can be.

I thinked about that one too, imagine you can make your twin go to your work and be your proxy if you are sick... LOL you have someone who looks like you and you can dress up similarly though some twins try to be individuals so badly. a lot of twins loves looking similar. If time machine is real, sadly its not... having two versions of you from 2 different timeline will automatically give you a twin. I think having a twin is cool cos you will have a sibling the same age with you and its would be easier to relate to each other....unless your twin is your opposite but most twins get along well.

if i were a boy,i'd love to have a twin sister,if i were a girl ,i'd love to have a twin brother. i'm a girl,and if i have a twin sister,it would be embarrasing that my boyfriend miskiss her instead of me..lol..and if we 're too much alike,both appearance and characters,we may have bf issues or things like that... maybe i've seen too much drama..

well if one of you will have a hair cut and will try to have a different fashion sense then there could be a difference. some identical twins may look the same but they dont have the same voice and behavior. Many twins are opposite of each other. I twin sister could be your greatest best friend or tag team partner but yeah some twins dont get along but most twins actually are friends.

Its great of having twins/or being one of the twins. Just a great problem is for the mother to handle 2 kids of same age at the same time.

The mom can hire a nanny, or ask help from the grandma or the auntie.

maybe it is amusing when we having a twin ,we can work together in a matter in a goodness or badness. in terms of goodness , for example : we can do the work-school together , work in the company together ,when we are sick and can't attend in a meeting tat could replace by our twin without known by other people ,etc . in terms of badness , for example : we can confuse others because our face are similar , we can exchange our girlfriends without known by each of them ,etc.

Can you imagine if a version of you from another dimension got stuck here, for an instant, you have a "twin brother" but its actually you from a parallel universe somewhere. back to the topic. If I have twin ,we will try to talk at the same time if someone tried to talk to us. we will act like the same person. LOL

hi otakumarie it sounds like having a twin is really so much fun and too the bonds between twins I am told are really super special. I always thought it would be neat too to have a twin but I only =had a little sister much younger than myself I have known several twins and they were the happiest of people with loads of friends too. And you always have that one special friend your twin who will never go back on you ever. happy myloting.+

I wonder how does it feel to have a sibling with the same age. In my country's culture, older siblings have authority to their younger siblings. Older brothers have to called "Big Brother" and older sister have to called "Big sister" we dont call them by names like western siblings do. Its like a sign of respect. if you are twins you will be equals right?

I'd joust like to have a sister. Having a twin would be bliss. However, I can't imagine anyone actually stating that it doesn't matter which of you they are talking to because you have the same face.

It'd be great to have a twin, I think. I can't imagine how busy a mother will be to take care of two babies at the same time. But it's surely worth it. Those who haven't a child will dream of having a twin.
