...dinner comment

I went out to dinner (in drab) with my wife and an elderly man she is caregiver for; while we were eating and talking about out family's she mentioned her brother and his wife had just spent the weekend with us and how much they looked alike and she showed him a picture of him "yes indeed you do look alike" she mentioned they were always mistaken for twins...well I just had to get into it and showed him a picture of one of my sisters (I have three) in which we bear strong family resemblances and he replied "oh yes I can see the similarities " - then I thought what the heck and said here is a picture of another sister Debra (myself dressed) to which he replied "she is better looking" :o: :battingeyelashes: (and my sister ain't ugly) just made my day and thought I would like to share...…………………...Debra

Why was your wife dressed in drab? J/K lol.

I too sometimes show images of myself dressed to friends (well the avatars of me I post on this site, anyway). Some people see it's me straight away, others actually think I am showing them a pic of a woman.

Glad you got a positive reply from your wife's client.

So the question is Debra, did you tell your sister this story? The devil in me wants to think you did. :)

Cute story! Sounds like a little sibling rivalry going on there!

Daisy …. I think I will have that chat with my sister - not the one I showed him a picture of but one I am closer to and knows:devil:...……………...Debra
P.S I've always been the cute one :eek:

Whatever you do, don't tell your sister.
That could be stirring the hornet's nest.
Keep it as your little secret.

I look like my imaginary sister too.

She is definitely better looking. :-)

Debra, that is a great story. I would not tell your sister.

Debra

How that is very cool and kind of brave of you. Based on your pictures here I'm not surprised. I can only assume your wife had no problem you showing the picture. My wife would kill me (she might wait until we got home or do it right there at the table lol).

No Connie - wife didn't care, thought it was kinda funny :cool:...…………………………..Debra

Great story, please share the picture

This is the picture I showed him, a cropped version from a few years ago ….. sorry I can't post my sisters pic to compare Attachment 297944

The picture looks very natural to me. I can see why he didn't put two and two together.

I find that I am starting to carry a photo of myself with my twin in my bill fold. It actually is myself with my drab self.
I have photo-shopped the two of us together.
