    No I have never seen mine but I must have several because in three different places I’ve lived I’ve had multiple people come up, insist they know me, get upset with me for “acting” like I don’t know them and go on and on about having had conversations, done things with me just moments or days before and asking don’t I remember, accusing me of playing some sort of joke on them or being just plain mean for denying it. It happened enough that people started suggesting maybe I had multiple personality disorder, that perhaps I met them when one of my alters was out and that’s why I didn’t remember it.

    I asked a close friend is that what you really think? She said - Well no but what do you expect me to think I mean it’s a lot easier to believe that you’re just confused for some perfectly understandable reason than it is to believe that many people all with the same sort of delusion could be running around in one small place. I said – One small place! Come on it’s not like we’re living in Mayberry here I mean it's Seattle I bet there are a lot more nuts than you and I have ever met living here.

    Finally it was decided for three months solid my friends would never leave me alone just in case not knowing about it I was a multiple so I wouldn’t come to any harm. However after about only three weeks so many people I didn’t know came up with stories about spending time with me that couldn’t possibly have happened because I was being babysat that they decided okay maybe it wasn’t such a small world after all and perhaps they had over reacted. LOL you think? I said yeah well either that or maybe it did happen but you just don't remember it because you're an alter too...

    Anyhow though I’ve never met any of my supposed doubles I have seen my sons, they both have a look alike in town. I used to see them at a distance and think – Oh my son is here. But then when I would get close I would realize it was only just their double. However that doesn’t happen anymore because both of my sons who used to be heavy have lost considerable weight, unlike their doubles, who have remained stocky. Now I do a lot less working my way through a crowd to get next to my sons only to realize upon closer inspection – dang, foiled again!

    When I told my sons about seeing their doubles they weren’t surprised because apparently a lot of people have told them similar stories. My oldest said he while he doesn’t know his double he knows of him because they attended the same school for a number of years however despite going to the same small school their paths never once actually crossed in all that time.

    There are 36 different genetic facial types.

    That is it. Just 36. Only 36.
    Well lets move this along.

    If there are only 36 'looks' of physical form here then I must ask if these 'templates' are of a similar nature and their life experiences are also 'templated'?

    From personal contemplation:

    As I or this form walked today to the local shop, I was considering this thread. On leaving the establishment I strolled past a group of children who were in conversation regarding the genitalia of their opposite gender's peers!

    As I walked past I noticed that one child (sorry but anyone less than 25 I consider an infant) was a remarkable refection of me at 14-16 years!

    This became a thought.... if we have a limited number of 'looks' do we also have a limited number of 'life experiences'?

    In other words ....... will the child I saw today grow to be me? Will he be 6'5" 15 stone, have no need for dentists nor doctors, did he also die at 7 of appendicitis?

    Is it a vibration which we each gather life by life?
    Normal..!

    This was reported by the BBC today: (!)

    http://bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-34679496

    Man finds his doppelganger sitting in his seat on a flight





    A man has spoken of the "total weirdness" of encountering his doppelganger on a flight.

    Neil Thomas Douglas boarded a flight on Thursday night and came face-to-face with his lookalike.

    Mr Douglas, a photographer from Glasgow, said: "Everyone around us had a laugh, we took a selfie and that was it."

    The selfie was posted on Twitter and has been retweeted thousands of times.

    The photographer explained that when he boarded the Ryanair flight to Galway via London Stansted there was already someone sitting in his seat.

    He said: "There was a dude already on my seat. When the guy looked up, I thought: 'He looks like me'."

    But the pair were later to encounter a further coincidence when they checked into the same hotel in Galway.

    Mr Douglas added: "Later that night, I went to the pub and again, there was my twin. Total weirdness. We had a laugh and a pint."

    'Do you look like me?': Finding my doppelganger

    30 October 2015 Last updated at 21:07 GMT


    How would you feel if you met a stranger that looks exactly like you?

    Niamh Geaney from Dublin in Ireland is on a quest to find seven people who look like her.

    So far, she has found not only one, but two doppelgangers.

    She told the BBC how she found them.

    Can A Stranger Look Exactly Like Me?




    Published on 7 Mar 2014


    There are 7 billion people on the planet, making it fairly likely that someone,
    somewhere looks exactly like you! Is there a science behind Doppelgangers?
    Laci is here to discuss what happens in the brain when we see someone that
    looks identical to you.

    Doppelgngers Began as a Part of German Folklore
    http://www.spiritualliving360.com/ind...
    "Doppelgänger in German literally means "double-goer" and was used to describe
    an apparition-like duplicate of a living person, not to be confused with the ghost
    of a deceased person."

    I saw my wife's in a city 13 miles from where we live. She was driving a car, and my wife doesn't drive.

    I also was mistaken for mine when I went to a small fast food place by my house. The girl at the counter told me "the usual?", and when I looked at her, she could see that I didn't know what she was talking about. She apologized and took my order.

    No genetic connection has since been proven, as shown in the follow up vid (from above)..



    Hi strangeness that two people can be almost perfect twins, yet not be related at all. Neither are these two dead ringers:

    I've only ever seen one true doppelgänger (of me). He was some hill-billy that was a guest on the Jerry Springer show! This was years ago, in the 90s. A friend actually called me asking me to turn on the TV immediately - thinking it WAS me. Not that I have the appearance of a bedraggled hilly-billy, but facially the similarity was devastating. It really freaked me out.

    I have a couple things related to this. (Of course, why wouldn't I?)

    Too many times to count I have been recognized as a guy named Scott. By different people in different cities and countries.

    Another story...
    One time I was in a store and there was a person walking toward me who I thought I recognized as a friend from college. Our eyes met and he seemed to recognize me...we walked to greet each other and as soon as we got close enough to shake hands we both hesitated - he thought I was his friend from college as well and of course thought my name was Scott. We shook hands anyway and we were both shook up and confused and we both kept looking over our shoulder at each other the whole time we were in the store.
