Have you ever had an experience you cannot explain? Something that was so strange, so surreal that it almost defies belief? Have you ever seen a ghost, or perhaps a flying saucer? Whatever it is, have you ever questioned what you experienced? Have you ever shared your story with anyone else? I think that it's amazing how many people around the world have had unique encounters with something that they cannot explain. For most of us, the opportunity to experience something strange and unique can feel terrifying or thrilling...but for those of you that have had such an experience, I would love to know what you've been through and how it affected your life.

I don't know if this will make sense to others, but weirdest thing that happened to me is when i meet someone for the first time and swore i knew them. We looked at each other a few minutes and were like i know you, but the thing was we hadn't meet before that day. We finally decided we had to have know each other in a past life.

That happens to me too. I usually think that we have either met in a past life or we have just almost met like a million times but never actually made eye contact. So when we finally do make eye contact you recognize each others energy but dont know why. This is what gives that, "dont i know you from somewhere", vibe.

I've had a few weird experiences that were weird in a funny/odd sort of way and weird in the more serious use of the word. Here are two examples I can think of off the top of my head.
One odd thing is that with all of the close friends I have ever had, we became friends after they asked me a very basic question. There's one guy I've been friends with for eight years and we met when he asked me what time it was (I had a watch, he didn't).
An example of 'weird weird' sort of experiences, I remember as a kid I had this little toy gumball machine. You would put gumballs in it and put like a penny in the slot, a gumball would roll out. Basically it was a toy/kid version of the ones you'd see in stores. I remember one day I decided to get one out. I was standing in my living room and it was sitting on the counter in the kitchen (and you could see it from the living room). As I entered the kitchen, I thought to myself, "I want a gumball!"
...A gumball then randomly rolled out without doing a thing to it as soon as I thought that. And mind you, no one was in there and I was still on the other side of the kitchen.

Well i have had 3 major boyfriends in my life and they all had the same b-day. April 1st. Yup April fools day. I just dont get it. I dont believe that it is just a coincidence, because i dont believe in coincidences. And to make it even creepier the relationships were all spaced exactly 2 years apart. So every time i would end an April 1st relationship exactly 2 years later i would end up dating another one. Now, a prerequisite for dating or even becoming friends with anyone is that they do not have an April 1st b-day. I actually ask a guy who is hitting on me if his b-day is April 1st, if they say yes i run the other direction. (i have not encountered any more April 1st b-day people though)
If that alone is not weird, i have casually dated like a total of 6 Aries. (April 1st is the sign of Aries). I dont even take men who are Aries seriously anymore. I wont run the other direction like i would if they had and April 1st b-day but i still dont even consider entering into any kind of relationship and i do mean ANY kind.
