How To Date An Identical Twin by vaxx: 8:45pm On Apr 22, 2017
Dating an identical twin can add a little more complication to an otherwise ordinary relationship, depending on the closeness of the twins and their willingness to play a few pranks on you to make it difficult to tell them apart. And while some parents of twins can barely tell them apart, how will you manage? Or will you become attracted to both twins? Dating a twin can lead to some very awkward moments, to say the least, so here are some handy steps to help your dating experience with a twin run smoothly.

1. Mark your territory.
Ask your twin date to stand out if you have trouble telling the two apart. Ask him or her to wear a specific necklace or hand band, or something else that makes it easy to identify him/her. If that doesn't work or if he or she won't cooperate, distinguish and focus on a unique feature. Birthmarks, scars, and other features such as a laugh or twitch make each person different from another, including their twin.
Note that it won't take you very long when being around both twins to know who is who and to be able to tell them apart easily.

2. Avoid making the other twin feel like a third wheel.
Twins usually have a better special bond than regular siblings. So when you come into the picture, the twin may feel guilty by leaving the other one behind or alone.

Instead of feeling like you need to be around the second twin all of the time, organize specific events to go on a double date, or create group get-togethers. You might like to ask one of your friends to spend time with the other twin. He or she might even start dating one of them!

And when you're alone with the two of them, interrupt their physical closeness by putting yourself in between them.

3. Focus on the "main" subject.
It's not wrong of you to be physically drawn to both of them. But your guy or girl probably doesn't appreciate you dabbling with and eyeing his or her double.

Remember to treat your twin date the same as a single birth person. What would be challenging, hurtful, or inappropriate in that situation remains the same for dating a twin.

4. Put your foot down on any tricks.
Some twins may think it's funny to play tricks on their significant other. Never stand for any of this.

One response to trickery might be: Secretly brand your date with a mark without him or her knowing. Either her smile, birth mark or voice or simply voice your dislike of any such pranking.

5. Consider whether or not extreme closeness between twins is a problem for you or is something that you can live with.
Your presence won't break that bond, so learning to deal with it is your best strategy. If it doesn't work for you, that's a sign to draw the dating to an end.

If you find one twin is very protective of the other twin, even when you are around, and tells you to "take care of my baby sister well, or else", or "treat my brother properly", this could be a warning signal that the protectiveness will spoil your relationship. Talk to your twin date about it and decide how you feel after hearing the answers. Constantly fighting over the presence of a twin in your dating life is a warning sign. If your twin tells you that their twin will always come first in their life, this signals that the twin hasn't managed to separate his or her needs and future journey from his or her twin. It might require more time, or you might consider moving on.

6. Avoid making assumptions about twins.
Identical twins are still unique individuals and their interests, tastes, and hobbies may be very different from one another. As well, not all twins get along, or have an intense level of closeness, in just the same way that some single birth siblings don't get along well. The best thing to do when dating a twin is to put the assumptions aside and look to your own feelings about the twin you are dating.
