Not too long ago someone send me a pic of a girl that looked exactly like me... Unfortunately she passed away about 2 years ago and I will never met her in person.
Her mommy was from Japan and her daddy was African American.
Surprisingly, my DNA test says that I am coming from China and Africa. I was born in Mx and my heritage is from Spain.
Have you met someone that looks like you from another part of the world?...

    I have not, but several other people swear up and down that they have met, seen or talked to someone who looks surprisingly like (or exactly like me). This happened a lot in the city I grew up around, but not in any of the locations I've lived since.

    I suppose it might be possible given that I was adopted, know nothing of my biological "parents" and do not know if I have siblings or other relations that were still living in the area when I was there.

    On the one hand, I always found the stories amusing when friends/family would tell me about it, on the other hand, it's a bit unnerving. A world of unknown possibilities, if you will.

    Why yes, I have right here on MFP. It’s amazing really the resemblance between us. If it wasn’t for the age difference, it would be impossible to tell us apart...

    It is amazing the things that this app brings. The person I was talking about on my post is my pal as well. I am sure I have another doppelganger somewhere in the world....

    Supposedly I was a dead ringer for a British actress 30 years ago.

    My parents and I were flying back from a family funeral in the UK but they weren't able to get us three seats together so during the flight I walked back to chat with them. Afterwards my mum mentioned that the couple sitting next to them actually thought I was this celebrity woman and it took quite a bit to convince them that I was just their daughter.

    Of course, neither of my parents remembered the name of this actress. :s

    Probably not the same thing but me and my sister got mistaken for each other all the time.

    I've been told more than once that I look like Dr. Strange. And also Thomas Hayden Church as Sandman. Curious because these people don't look alike.

    Many years ago a man walked up to me at a funfair with a woman's ID. Thinking back it should have been an insult because I was too young to even have an ID, but he showed me the ID and asked if I'm her.
