KittenMoon Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 I was at the grocery store today in the neighborhood I share with my ex, and I saw a guy who was a dead wringer for my ex. In fact, I panicked at first because I thought it was him! He was dressed in an exact outfit my ex always wore, same body type, same hair color, pulled back in a pony tail like my ex- his clothes even hung on him in the exact same way! They were even facially similar to the point they could be brothers. It took me a bit of stalking to assure myself it wasn't him, but I've never seen someone look so dead-on like somebody else in my life! My adrenaline had so jumped when I saw him initially it took like an hour to calm down again. Yeesh! No more of that please!
randuff Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Scary! I hate that feeling when your heart just drops like that.
alphamale Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Wow what an experience KM...I hope you atleast got some decent produce. Fresh vegetable are fruits are good for you.
serial muse Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 perhaps he was the reanimated zombie of your ex?!? sorry, was just reading about 28 weeks later...

Mine is no where near as exciting, but I saw a dead wringer for my ex on Myspace today. Then when I looked at his page, I found that he is the same age to the month, wears one of the same shirts, listens to the same music, and has pictures of the same things on his page as my ex. The only difference is he lives in Ireland. Everyone has a long lost twin somewhere!
Author KittenMoon Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 Everyone has a long lost twin somewhere! Haha, that's funny, I've heard that before. I mean, it was kinda funny afterwards- I just can't get over how totally similar they looked! It was like a car crash- I couldn't stop looking!

panzer6 Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Mother of God ! The guy had a ponytail ? Trust me Kitten you are far better off without him !
Author KittenMoon Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 Mother of God ! The guy had a ponytail ? Trust me Kitten you are far better off without him ! I like long hair on some guys. And he was one of the small percentage of guys who looked better with long hair than short. But yeah, it looks ridiculous most of the time- I spent years convincing my little bro to cut his- it looked awful! (he finally did, looks much better)
Ssheena Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Hi KM, I hope you are doing better than our last conversation. I HATE that feeling that strikes out of nowhere - like your stomach just dropped, your pulse speeds up, get anxious, and I'm sorry it took you an hour to get back to normal after your grocery store encounter with the dobbelganger. The only plus I can offer you is...(works for me at least) is to tell yourself that while you were in such a state your metobolism was jacked up and you were burning lots of calories!

Yeah- it's a sick feeling. It's not specifically an "ex" thing, I mean, it happens the same say, if I narrowly avoid a traffic accident or something. That "fight or flight" panicky adrenaline thing. It just takes so darn long to go away! And I'm doing much better lately, Ssheena, although I will admit my situation has continued to be significantly retarded to the point of being almost humorous.

My adrenaline had so jumped when I saw him initially it took like an hour to calm down again. Yeesh! No more of that please! I had the exact same experience a few weeks ago. The only difference was that it was actually my ex. It was the first time that I had seen her since we split and I guess that I still hold resentment towards her, otherwise I would have not reacted the way that I did. Anywho, I know that feeling and it does suck. At least it was a one time thing.
