I never really thought I looked like my parents, but people say I do. Do you look like your parents?

    My mother and I look almost identical. I will change my profile pic to one of her and me.

    I look more like my mom than my father, but I look like my father when he was in his late teens, early 20's.

    I think I look like my father but most people think I look like my mother. Strange.

    You do look like your parents! I see it most in your Dad.

    People always say I look like my Dad, but I swear I'm the spitting image of my Mom when she was my age. I don't have any pictures to show currently, but maybe I'll come back and post!

    Depends on who I stand next to... I look like a spitting image of both of them. Neither one of them could deny me if they tried :laugh:

    I'm adopted and people CONSTANTLY tell me I look just like my mother, which makes us both giggle inside. We look nothing alike at all.

    You deffinitly have your dads jawline but in a feminine way of course, you have your mothers shaped eyes but yours are a very nice distinct blue, therefore, you do resemble your parents and can tell your their daughter but your also yourself and obviously took the best of both :)

    unfortunatly . . . I take after my old man lol

    I look nothing like my parents. Not even close. However, my daughter looks so much like me that she could be a clone. We have won every mother daughter look alike contest since she was one.

    My mom and I looked identical at age 13, but as I grew I looked more like my Dad. Course, people thought my Mom and Dad were siblings (they weren't, I swear) so I'm not surprised when people say I look like my Mom, and then 20 minutes later they say I look like my Dad. Hands down, I get my body type from my Dad's side, though.

    When my sister was alive, I got told ALL the time I looked like her. After she died, I got told I look just like my mother. I lean toward believing I look like my mother. although I hope I age a bit better than she did.

    Nope, nothing like either.

    I have actually been mistaken as both my dads older and younger sisters daughter on more than one occasion.

    I look nothing like either of my parents. My dad is tall and thin, gaunt looking really with dark brown/ gray hair. My mother is short...shorter than me, super thin, naturally dark skin and black hair. Essentially just think Native American because that's my mom.

    Their contacts, but my eyes are brown like my fathers.
    I have a lot of dominate features from my father's side. My mother, I just seem to have her sassy and wild attitude from what I've heard. Well your father must have been handsome :smile:

    I look nothing like my parents. I look like a combination of my Dad's sisters and a little bit of my Mom's sister. What's weird is that people say me and my brother look alike, but he takes after both of my parents

    I look like a pretty good mix of both of my parents. For the most part I have my dad's personality with my moms temper.

    I'm adopted so never got to do the I look like thing. Until 3 years ago when I found them. I don't think I look like my parents..., but my son looks exactly like my dad. And I have a full biological sister from them also who is my twin in ever freaky way possible.
