10 Things That Only Twins Can Relate To
Hayden Mitzlaff

Among the billions of people across the world, there’s a particular population unlike any other. They’ve been by each other’s sides since the day they were born, in fact, even before they were born. They share and have shared everything with each other, from clothes to the space in their mom’s womb. Ahhh, twins.

Your person, your automatic best friend for life. They know everything about you and everything that you’re thinking, sometimes even before you think it. Whether identical or fraternal, there’s an undeniable bond between you two. The Tia to your Tamera, the Zack to your Cody, the Mary-Kate to your Ashley –– whatever it may be, there’s nothing better and more interesting than being a twin.

Luckily for me, I’m part of that particular population, and wouldn’t have it any other way.

Here are 10 things that only twins can relate to:

1. Whether identical or fraternal, being mistaken for each other multiple times a week

Come on people, you got a 50/50 shot.

2. Even your parents call you by the wrong name


This seems to happen way too often. But hey, my mom did call my brother by my dog’s name yesterday- could be worse.

3. When you tell people that you’re a twin and you’re hit with the “No, way!!!” or the “I see it!” responses

Then they ask you what your birthdays are for some validation. Which you both reply to in perfect synchronization. You want our address too?

4. One of the first things you tell people about yourself is that you’re a twin

Love it or hate it, it’s part of your identity. And yes, it will be engraved on my tombstone that I was a twin. Don’t know me if you don’t know her!

5. You’re referred to by your friends as “the twins”


“Did you invite the twins?” No names needed. Just “the twins.”

6. The older twin always takes advantage of the fact that they were “born first”

You both had an even shot at leaving the womb first, yet you just so happened to be the lucky winner. That’s right, four minutes bitch. I always win.

7. You can vent about your twin to other people but when someone else says something negative about your twin it’s game over

All hell’s about to break loose.

8. You inevitably always get compared to your twin


Academics, sports, looks – you can’t have it all.

9. You feel lost when you go anywhere without your twin

They’re your security blanket. It’s like that recurring nightmare you have about showing up in public places naked- yeah that’s what it feels like to be without your twin.

10. You wouldn’t change the fact that you’re a twin for the world

Your best friend, your go to, your built-in soul-mate. There’s truly nothing more special and unique than the bond between twins.

Love you sissy!!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
