It's happened to me a few times... no one special lol, but just a few months ago, darling daughter was working in a town close to where we live, and she said that there is a woman there who in her words was "the spitting image of me" lol. She had gone into the grocery store to pick up something or other and she spotted this woman shopping. For a few minutes she thought that it was me and wondered what I was doing there, and then realized that she made a mistake just as she was about to approach the woman. I thought about driving over to the town just to see if I could bump into this woman, but what are the chances lol. Who knows, if we are meant to run into each other... maybe it happen. So, have you ever been told that you look like someone else??

The only other person to tell me something similiar was my mom. And she was the one to spot her "twin" lol... and she was too freaked out to do anything about it.

Someone once told me that I looked like a Swedish singer. I don't remember the name of the singer. I had never heard the name before. I wish I was able to remember the name. It could be fun to look her up online

@Hate2Iron I remember the singers from Abba. I used to have one of their CDs. As far as I understood the singer I look like is a relatively new one. I don't really know any of the new singers.

The only singers I can think of who are swedish are those two from Abba. One was a blonde and the other a redhead. Hope you find out!!

I have. There have been people who will see me in my wheelchair, and get confused because they swore they saw me walking. There was one time, where someone came running up to me, thinking I was her friend, and had freaked out. Again, because I'm in a wheelchair and her friend could walk.

A lady made a great fuss of Vince once because she thought it was her brother. She was flabbergasted to learn it wasn't so he must look very like the other guy.

Yes and it shook me up a bit. A woman mistook me for my friend- the friend having passed on due to kidney issues.

@Hate2Iron And then that lady in the grocery store who said "Well, hello there!" just like my Mom used to. That about put me into a crying puddle.

Not a spitting image but some resemblance. I have met a few who look similar with even similar mannerisms too!

Now the same mannerisms would definitely freak me out. Then again, I still have to actually have the chance to see someone who looked just like me!!
