Saying “I Love You” To The Wrong Twin

The dad and uncle of this Reddit user were identical twins. They said, “When he was dating my mom in college, he used to play a game with his twin. He would call my mom, and partway through the conversation, hand the phone off to my uncle. My uncle would see how long he could carry the conversation before he had to tap out and hand the phone off to my dad.” Apparently, they got the timing wrong once! “Anyway, the first time my mom ever said “I love you” to my dad, she was actually talking to my uncle. My uncle faltered, and that was when my mom realized what had been happening. They must’ve straightened everything out, because she and my dad ended up married, and had me.”

According to mertzlufft, a friend once pretended to be his twin in a class held on different days. They said, “The fake one would attend my class, the real one would attend that class the next day. At first, he just showed up because he would get bored, and decided to sit in on the first day’s class, but then the professor asked if he had a brother in the other class. Naturally, he said he was a twin, he just wasn’t put on the roster. This went on for the entire semester as he kept digging himself a bigger and bigger hole.”

What happened in the end? They explained, “This last month, we had a huge project due, and the professor loved the fake twin’s idea, but hated the real one’s idea, so he tried to do both projects, and failed. He decided to only go with the real idea, even if it was worse. When the last week of the semester came, he presented the project, and told the professor that it had been a joke the whole time and he had really been his own twin.” The professor did not get it right away, however. “Our professor is foreign, and apparently didn’t understand what he meant until after the fifth time he was told that the other twin didn’t exist. “
