I choose you

Today we had the opportunity to briefly speak to our class about being a twin. A common question asked is “can you be separated from each other?”

The answer is a confident Yes.

HOWEVER…

Many don’t see that answer as true because of the way we interact with each other. Some have observed that we communicate in an intimate way. Intimate in this context means when we speak; as one person explained to us, it’s like we’ve just met for the first time in months. We tend to express excitement and become involved in what the other is saying.

This to us seems normal, it’s an everyday life occurrence, but we can understand that for others it is completely out of the norm; many feel uncomfortable at the honesty we give each other, and many find it amusing… and that’s ok.

What we would like to say in this post is that we have shared a life time together. As usual there is room for improvement. We know how to interact with each other, from a natural bond and many years of practice

.

As we’ve mentioned before we like to be together; we choose to be with each other; it makes us upset when people find this to be a cripple or a disorder in our relationship. This is not the case and it’s a shame if our relationship comes across that way. there’s allot of beauty and a rare bond that we share and we would rather have you celebrate with us than think of it as a dependency disorder as others have referred to it. 

Watch this clip from the movie Jack and Jill, it's interviews of twins. it's really insightful. it looks like it's been recorded on on a phone. but we couldn't find a better one :(
