40 Hilarious Twin Mix-Up Stories That Are Almost Too Embarrassing To Share

I was with my twin brother at the supermarket this one time, and judging from this story I’m guessing that obviously we look the same from the back, but not exactly the front because I’m a female. My brother’s girlfriend was shopping at the same store as us that day and comes up behind me and smacks my bottom saying “Hey love” jokingly I turn around and say it back. The look on her face made me regret what I did....

Not a twin, but I was dating one.


They shared a bedroom, we were at an age that we'd still live at home. I walked in on "my" twin, fresh out of the shower. She was butt naked and stood with her back to me, so I walked up and grabbed her from behind, pulling her closer to me when she asked:
"Alwin_?"
"Wrong twin"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Our secret?"
"yeah... Sorry about that. Bye."

I went to a funeral of a friends father, I had no idea that the deceased had an identical twin. It felt really strange to see the guy in the coffin sat at the front row of the Church.

My girlfriend told me about a production of Twelfth Night that was able cast identical twins for the main role.

At one point one of them walked off one side of the stage and the other walked on from the opposite side in a different costume seconds later. Most of the audience just thought they were doing really fast quick changes.

In the version they used for the dvd a guy in the audience near the camera very loudly said “what the f**k?!” when this happened.

My husband has an identical twin. When my husband and I got engagement photos done, Facebook automatically tagged my husband's brother in a bunch of our photos, and I posted them without realizing.

There was a f****d-up story about the twins in my country. Two baby girls were swaped in hospital, and one twin came back home with other family, their daughter stayed with her 'twin sister'. Girls were completely different, but the family thought they are just not identical twins.

They found out the truth when all 3 girls were in high schools. The real twins were constantly called differently and strangers would approach them and say hi. They lived in a relatively small town, so finally some common friends organised their meeting.

Although they look identical, they are completely different people, eg. one of them likes metal music and wears black clothes. The story didn't end up well, although they sued the hospital, both families are devastated by the whole story.

Not a twin.

Dated a twin on and off for awhile. In middle school, I would get a call from my boyfriend. We'd chat for a bit and then he'd have to go so his brother could have his phone time (these were the days before cell phones). Then we'd hang up and I'd get another phone call a minute later. From my boy friend. Turns out the first call was from his twin brother. Boyfriend would get pissed.

He tried that a few more times. Then I learned to tell their voices a part.

Edit: thanks for my first silver!!!

I dated an identical twin back in high school. Her sister had recently broken up with her boyfriend. The ex-boyfriend and his mom were walking through the park and saw my girlfriend and I kissing. Without the slightest display of emotion, she turns to her son and says “Ah, so that’s why she left you.”

I’m not the twin, but I was dating a guy on and off for years (long distance) and eventually came to find out that the guy I had been on and off dating was f*****g his twin brother & his twin brother’s wife.

I couldn’t believe it at first, but then a whole lot of things started to make sense, the more I thought about it. I’d been friends with him a solid fifteen years, and in that whole time he never really dated anyone but me. But he spent so much time with his twin brother & even more with his twin brother’s wife.

We’re no longer dating.

My twin brother went out to pick up some wine and his girlfriend (at the time) came over and thought I was him. She was probably really horny but without hesitating she began to kiss me and it took me by surprise, to the point where i was frozen in shock. I was about to get her off me, but that was when he walked in...

My identical twin brother, my wife, and myself all went to school together and got jobs at the same place after passing boards. Since there are some rules regarding family working together, I was not hired to the same unit as my wife. But my twin was. It was a lot of fun, taking lunches together, etc. But there was one social worker who just couldn't grasp that my brother and wife were not the married ones. She'd compliment me on how cute they were together, comment on social media how great a couple they were, even talk about how much my kids 'take after their dad' (referring to him). It's all benign and we laugh about it, but she really laid it on thick.

My ex was once scrolling through FB and said 'you look really hot in this photo'.

It wasn't me.

Not a twin, but I had a pair of teachers at my middle school who were identical twins. They tended to dress similarly and I spent a lot of time confused as to how they could move around the school so quickly until someone told me there were two of them, and that they were twins. This was right before one of them got pregnant though, so I would have figured it out eventually

My grandma and her sister were twins. Her sister was going to be a nun so couldn't be involved in any affairs. Some guy asked the sister out, who sent my grandma in her place, tasked with ending the date poorly.

I'd like to say there's a funny ending that the guy is my granddad, but he's not, he's just some random dude.

When I was a baby my dad was supposed to take my brother to a doctor's office because he was sick and he took me instead my dad realized that it was me and got my brother to the doctors turns out he just had a cough.

My twin brother is gay so early in highschool before people knew he had a twin I was groped by a gay man...

I tried to date this girl from class and we were going out on dates and everything but out of nowhere she stopped talking to me because her friends saw me with another girl ( my twin sister) at the movies and thought I was playing her but they didn’t know I have a twin sister.

I'm not a twin, but I knew some in hs.

There were these two identical girls who were your kind of typical sl*tty experimental girls, and they revealed to me they would practice making out on each other. Additionally they shared a boyfriend at some point without telling him they were two separate people. But when he found out, he was real upset because if they were lying about that, then what else was going on behind his back.

My cousin married a twin, accidently groped the wrong tooshy at their wedding reception in front of both families. No alcohol involved but there were some tempers and some tears.

Not embarrassing but my geography teacher has a twin brother and when he left a few people without a grade meaning they had to take summer exams, a few of the kids gathered and broke his twin brothers nose and gave him a black eye. They were pretty surprised to see him the next day without a scratch.
