I've heard before that people who are married a long time end up looking somewhat alike. The link to an interesting article follows. So, to those of you who were/are married a really long time, do you think you've begun to look alike?

Hmm, me thinks not. He's got the Italian dark hair, eyes and skin tone...while I'm red-headed with blue eyes, and have fair skin and lots of freckles. Plus he's managed to stay at the same weight since forever, while I keep going thru' these dang "growth spurts"!

I have heard of this too. and when I did, I started to notice some older people (I was about 40 then) did look a lot alike and will be going on the site to read it. they also say people look like their dogs. I am not being derogatory here.
Gosh, we had Bull Terriers, a Labrador and an Irish Setter. I better try and get a pic up, you all can be the judge!

Not married any longer and I would hope not! LOL
I know several couples who have been together 40 or more years and they don't look alike, though I've heard what you said before....I would guess after so many years together, mates take on each other mannerisms, etc?

I don't think we will ever look much alike. I am blonde, pink skinned and English. My hubby is dark, big nosed, with olive skin and Italian.
Yup, we're beauties.

Only around the waist! I've decided it's time to stop teasing him about his increasing waistline since mine is doing the same.

Don't know about the marriage bit, but I am starting to look like my dog.
