Hi there. I would like to share my story with you. I was going out with a guy for some months, but it never worked out. We were always fighting over small, unimportant details (most of the time). We liked each other very much but not enough to survive those quarrels and all. So we both decided it was better to break up... This guy had a twin brother, who I came to know more after the break up. With time I found out we had more things in common than what I had with his brother, and we ended up dating, been 2 years together now. I can say we are very happy. His brother (my ex) and I remained friends. Life’s strange sometimes!! I would never have thought finding happiness next to my ex's twin brother!! I also learned twins are not necessarily the same over everything! Sometimes we pass by our true happiness when it is just in front of us. We miss so many evident things sometimes. We should open our eyes and our hearts more!! Do you agree with me?

Hi there!! thank you for sharing your good experience with us. This helps each of us realize everything's not totally black in life sometimes! You are totally right when you say we pass across important things sometimes...we tend to be like horses with blinders, most of the time... Your story is a very original one but nice!! Let your positivity spread into this forum, so as to give hope to each one of us here. Welcome sweetLikeChocolate!

How inspiring! I am really happy for you! I wish you all the best! and you are very right! It is hard to see sometimes that happiness isn't as far away as we may think it is! That's for sure!

Hey "Sweet like chocolate" is in some song, am I right? When I read your nickname there was a tune repeating in my head "Sweet like chocolate..! Sweet like chOcolate..!". Well anyway, lol. That must be a nice experience to live! Yea I agree too, we must be more aware of things around us, things and people, whom you might not have met before but which/who could bring you some positive things. Good luck with your new twin bf

It's nice for you that you met happiness with the twin of your ex. I want to know if there is no ambiguity between you three when you are together I mean, how do you behave? I don't think it would have worked out for me. If all is okay for you and you are happy, congratulations!!! It's really amazing your story!

this is so true . twins may have the same face but are completely different in nature and behaviour. its good the person who gave you happiness. ya it seems strange to go out with your ex's twin brother but if he does not have any problem with that then you should not worry about it and just be happy with the one whom you do not quarrel with. as long as you never make any error in recognising the two you should be leading a happy and peaceful life.

I hope this will never happen to her again! But I think that as long as she has got to know the person she knows now how to make the difference! She's been two years with him is it? So I guess it's enough to know who is who!

Yes I fully agree with you... We miss lots of chances when they are more than evident to us. Many human beings think that as something is too evident, there must be something fishy about it!! Perhaps should we change that way of thinking.

Hey heyy! That's a cute story. And it is very rare to find the brother staying friend with the ex girlfriend, in such situations. You have got much chance. I wish you all the best for the rest! I hope you live true love with your boyfriend. And yes, you are very right to tell us we should open our eyes and heart more. Some people blame life for not giving them their chance, when in fact the person him/herself can choose to have opportunities.

Hey! How did I not see this story before!? That's a very nice piece of story that we have here! I guess you know I'll agree with everyone here and you that the true love of our life can be swift sometimes when passing near us. We must be really aware, and sometimes not leave out details or events sounding banal but which might be crucial to our life!! Thank you for sharing, Sweet! And take good care you and your new partner!
