She came to live with my husband and I not to long after my son was born. Helped with the baby and stuff so I could go back to work. Met a guy, started dating, it was all down hill from there!
My new neighbors (moved in right before she did) who I had not met yet, did not realize there were two of us.
They would see my husband and I then they would see my sister and her boyfriend and thought it was me the whole time.
They were so disgusted they would never give me a chance to introduce myself, so they did not know any different for about four months.
Finally they saw the both of us in front of my house one day and figured it out. When they came over to introduce themselves they apologized for being so standoffish and told us why they had been. It's pretty funny now, but at the time I could not figure out why I got such dirty looks from them.
Now I have two boys two years apart and everyone thinks they are twins too!

It just shows how stupid people are - it's like men only looking at women's chests when they decide how attractive they are. And it's not just men. I remember a girl at school asking me and my friend if we were sisters just because we both had similar glasses - she was tall with a long face, curly dark brown hair, dark eyes and freckles, I was much shorter, straight dark blonde hair, green eyed with an unfreckled heart-shaped face - it was bizarre. I assume you look quite a lot like your sister, e.g. similar height and build and colouring - but even so they ought to be able to tell you apart if they actually know you. Maybe if you start telling them off when they do that, they will start paying better attention to which of you is which. Maybe you should point out some of the obvious differences to them so that they can tell more easily when they only see one of you at a time - if they are quite dim they will need some help.

completely! My Cardigan Welsh Corgi has been incorrect for a Pembroke. they're great dogs, so I wasn't for sure insulted, yet i don't think of those human beings were very inteligent. I propose, the fluffy tail is incredibly obtrusive, isn't it? My GSD has been incorrect for a wolf hybrid (???). Yeah, proper, it became a 6 3 hundred and sixty 5 days old, so don't be alarmed! The day I presented my black labrador retriever domicile, I went to reveal him around the neighbourhood and a stupid 13-3 hundred and sixty 5 days-old lady aproached and stated: "OMG!!! it really is the cutest mini-lab I EVER talked about!!! do you want to reproduce him with mine?!" i did not even comprehend there became such aspect as a mini-lab. He became nevertheless a domestic dog and quiet small, yet there's a large stupidity in the back of calling him an individual mini-lab (inspite of that mutt is). expensive God! unfavourable you! Corr, this is undesirable to be insulted...

Ha ha ha! Yeah, that reminds me of a few years ago when my sister's ex-boyfriend mistook me for her! The weird thing is we don't even look that much alike, I have long hair and hers is short and she's skinny while I'm kinda curvy and got big boobs. But this guy hadn't seen us for about a year and he was really drunk when I saw him at the pub and he started talking to me and by the things he said I could tell he thought I was her so I said 'You don't even know who I am, do you?' So he said 'Don't try to **** with my mind I know exactly who you are, Louise (my sister's name)!! It was very funny but also very disturbing and weird.

well, I was never mistaken for a relative, but my best friend and I dated identical twins once...that was interesting haha. No need to wear a name tag in my opinion. What our boyfriends would do was wear a different color hat. One wore a blue hat and the other a black hat. Try something to set yourself apart from your sister. Make it obvious you are you =)

that's terrible! People mistake me for my sister on the phone all the time. They can't mistake us for the same person though b/c we are six years apart. I get really annoyed when people do that. Even my mom and best friends do that! So, I might know where you're coming from.

Haha, no, my brother's are 16 and 18 years older than me. But when I was little, a lot of people thought I was their kid.
From what you've said, it sounds like these guys don't really know the difference. They're not worth your time.

oh yes honey. People mistaken me with my sister too. One day there was this guy that actually sat down with me in a restaurant and started a conversation with me, thinking that I was my sister. After 30 minutes he realize I wasn't my sister

My brother and I dont exactly look alike, but we do sound the same on the phone. I'm always mistaken for him when his mates ring up. I just laugh about it and dont take it too seriously.

one time, when my sister and I wore similar hair styles people thought she was me by mistake. I think some people need to wake up. At the front desk in my dorm the attendants thought the other disabled guy was me. I am white and disabled he was black and disabled. I don't think people pay attention.
