Doppelgängers

When I was 16 I met one of my sister’s male friends. We got along great, and I really looked forward to seeing him again. But when I did - his reaction was not what I expected. He was angry at me. He said that he saw me the week previous while I was working at a local coffee shop, but when he said hello I looked at him like he had three heads. He started to talk to me, but I ignored him completely. I was extremely rude…but the thing was…I wasn’t. I didn’t work at a coffee shop, and I didn’t even go to that area since the last time we met. I never ran into him at all. He didn’t believe me until my sister confirmed what I said. He was shocked. He apologized, and said the only explanation was that I had a doppelgänger. I laughed it off, but during the next few months more and more people approached me upset that I would not talk to them when they approached me. Each time they told me the situation, I had an alibi for the day that they supposedly ran into me. Then just as quickly as this started - it stopped. No more weird confrontations…my doppelgänger disappeared. You may think that this is unusual, but it actually is a lot more common that you think. <br /><br />Welcome to Episode 85 - Doppelgängers.<br /><b></b><br /><b>We got merch!
