13 Basic Questions Twins Hear Over And Over
Lex Olson

1. "Are you identical or fraternal?"

If you are a twin you can definitely relate to this one because I'm 99.9% positive that it comes up almost immediately after people find out you have a twin.

2. "Are you guys like best friends?"

We argue just like any other siblings do. Sometimes we are best friends; sometimes we absolutely cannot stand each other.

3. "Man, I wish I had a twin that would be so fun!"

Yeah... A lot of people have this opinion, but I will let you know that having a twin is both a blessing and a curse because. They know everything. You are seeing a new boy and do not want your parents to know? Too bad, cause your twin already told them.

4. "Did you end up going to the same college?"

I get this question all the time and truly I don't know why; after spending nearly 18 years together I was definitely in need of a slight distancing from my womb buddy.

5. "Isn't it great that you can share clothes?"

Ummm... it's great if your twin is willing to share them... but when they do, it's perfect cause you basically have two closets to choose from!

6. "Do you have the same friends?"

We are different people, so most twins can probably say, they have a few of the same friends and a few different ones. It all depends, but we usually have the same enemies cause twins have to stick together of course.

7. "Is it hard being away from your twin?"

SO. INCREDIBLY. HARD. But Facetime and texting will do while we are apart.

8. "Do you guys have twin telepathy?"

No...I don't know why people assume this is a thing.

9. "Can you feel each other's pain?"

Still, no.

10. "Do you ever dress alike?"

When we were toddlers and forced into matching clothes by my mother who thought it was absolutely adorable; but now, if I were to come downstairs in something even slightly similar to my sister... one of us must change.

11. "Do you do everything together?"

We aren't conjoined, so no we don't. We do have our own lives.

12. "Do you mind sharing a birthday?"

Having a twin means double the cake and double the party guests! So its a win-win, and the funniest thing is there is always at least one person that will ask both of you when your birthday is and then feel defeated when they realize it is the same.

13. "Do you like having a twin?"

I absolutely love having a twin. It has its ups and downs, but anyone who is lucky enough to be blessed with another human to their exact age to go through life with should cherish it greatly.

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
