I must have one of those faces. People always think I'm someone they know. I had one man who thought I was his childs school teacher, a woman who ran up to me and hugged me in a department store asked how my husband was (I wasn't married), an old man who tried to convince me I was his neice (i call him uncle Jerry now) even a guy who spent a half hour trying to convince me we had 'slept' together. Most recently while at a truck stop with my boyfriend the cashier kept watching me...I thought she thought I was going to try to steal something...when we got up to the register she said "Did you see me looking at you? I thought I recognized you from prison!" The look on my boyfriends face was priceless. She quickly added "I worked at the prison and you look exactly like a girl who worked there with me!" Does this happen to you? I want the stories!

I have always been told that I look like Valerie Bertinelli. I suppose I do, she and I are the same age....I think we've aged together.
At least I don't look like Ernest Borgnine!

No and I am glad it doesnt. But one time my bf was at the grocery store after work and thought I had stopped there too cuz some girl looked like me from the back and he almost went up to her and grabbed her behind! I am glad he realized it wasn't me before he did that or he probably would have been arrested!

Once a lady came up to me calling me Brittany and wanting to hug me, I was afraid lol and she was trying to convince me she was once my head start teacher and she didn't believe me when I told her I had only transferred to that particular school in the 4th grade so it was impossible for me to have had her as a teacher, and she only believed me when a couple of my friends came up and started calling me by my name (Brianna) and my friend Cristina had to explain to her that I had just moved there a year ago lol I'll never forget how hard I laughed after she finally understood.

I once had this couple looking at me and smiling then talking. I just kind of ignored it and kept shopping. Then the man came up to me and said it was remarkable of how much I looked like their daughter. They were all smiles.

I've been called every name in the book. Yesterday I was 'Pam', and the week before that, I was 'Jessica'. I too must have a common looking face. It's funny but annoying!!

It happens to me to a lesser extent. Everyone I meet seems to know someone who looks "just like" me. They know I'm not that person, though. I decided I just have an average face for a white person and leave it at that. lol
