11 cotên herî bedew ên cêwî li Yekaterinburg: hûrguliyên wêneyê

They are often asked: “Which of you is who?”, “In childhood, teachers were fooled?” Woman`s Day presents 10 pairs of people who are like two peas in a pod!

Anastasia Sheybak and Ekaterina Sonchik, 31 years old, actresses

Nastya says:

– My sister and I have been inseparable from birth: kindergarten, school, institute. With age, they became even closer, only they stopped dressing the same, because it looks stupid. Although in childhood we fought over clothes: if my mother bought different outfits, we always chose the same one!

There is a connection between us. When I gave birth to my first child, my sister could not find a place for herself at work and felt pain all over her body! The birth was difficult, and for some time I was left without connection. And until she announced that she had given birth, she was physically ill. Then we attributed it to excitement, but after 3 years I gave birth again, and history repeated itself: only this time everything went faster. Now the sister says that she knows what childbirth is and is ready to give birth to her children. He loves mine as his own! Children sometimes confuse us – it’s funny.

At school we read poems for each other, solved control tests, ran relay races … At the institute, we also tried to substitute, but in the theater it was more difficult to do this, because our roles were different and our speech was different (my sister lurts slightly). Sometimes the teachers bought us out.

After the theater, we entered the Moscow Ostankino Institute of Television, or rather, for both of us … Katya did! So we decided to save money on plane and accommodation. The interview took place in a free form, and the sister first came for herself with her documents, and a day later – for me, putting on glasses and changing her hair. She was asked why we didn’t come together, to which she replied that I was sick. So we were enrolled in the institute.

In my personal life, I also had to replace my sister: when in her youth she was offended by a young man, and she was afraid to part with him, I did it for her!

Outwardly, of course, we are different, and the older, the more. After giving birth, my hair changed, became not as curly as my sister’s. But people still confuse us. Our tastes coincide in almost everything (food, clothing, hobbies), except for men. And thank God! We never shared men or fell in love with the same man like most twins! We know how many pairs of twins have suffered from this triangle.

Now he lives 100 km from each other and when we see each other, we spend time with our family and children, we walk, talk a lot about life, sing (our favorite hobby) and sadly part.

Julia and Olga Izgagin, 24 years old, saxophonists

Julia says:

– As a child, we swore a lot and fought over trifles: someone said an insulting word or did not agree in opinions. At the end of the quarrel, they no longer remembered where they started, and five minutes later they loved each other again. At school, we always distributed our homework among ourselves, then changed. In terms of academic performance, we have the same indicators.

By the way, we have a best friend with whom we are both friends from kindergarten. Then they studied together at school and university. She and I are a bit alike, so we were sometimes called triplets.

We were always confused by teachers both at school and at the university. Only close friends can distinguish. But we are calm about it. I even respond to “Olya” – a habit. And some, turning even to one of us, call out “Olyayulya”.

But you can tell us apart: I am calm, and Olya is choleric. In addition, I am shorter and my face is rounder. Fortunately, this is not so obvious, and for minor documents (common, library) we use a photograph of only one of us. Once we went to Bulgaria, and it so happened that a photograph of my sister got on the visa, but no one noticed the catch at the border. But, as a rule, at the airport they check for a long time by the passport, which of us is who. Because of us, there is always a queue!

Our preferences and tastes are similar: in music, in drawing portraits. We even like the same boys! Now my sister and I live separately, but when we meet, we are surprised that, without saying a word, we dressed the same. We also have the same dreams, and we often express exactly the same thoughts. We also get sick at the same time – a mental connection.

Julia and Anna Kazantsevs, 23 years old, engineers

Julia says:

– The relationship between us is such that you can envy! We are best friends in every sense of this expression. We always support each other, worry, rejoice, criticize, advise, help. We can share the most intimate with each other and we will be sure that none of us will give out the secret.

At school, at the university, everyone was always for himself. We did the homework on our own, because each has its own view of learning. We learn for knowledge, not for show. Only once did my sister get credit for me when I broke my jaw. I did not want to prolong the session and carry out other manipulations, because I passed the rest myself – there was no need to speak and open my mouth!

People from the outside say that at first glance we cannot be distinguished at all. From the second, you can already find differences, but if you talk a little longer, it becomes obvious that we are different. In general, I think the older we get, the more differences between us. For example, the characters: the sister is more serious and calm. I am more emotional, I do not like to sit still. And my sister follows me – it inspires her. We stimulate each other. And such qualities as responsibility, the desire to develop in various directions, achieve various goals and be proud of the result, unite us.

I have been involved in various sports and one day I decided it was time to share my knowledge. She began to conduct group workouts, fitness based on the workout. Then she gradually moved to the gym. And now it is an integral part of my life! My sister replaced me a couple of times in training. And about a year later I also decided to realize myself in coaching!

We did not study and work together, because of this the social circle in the last five years has been different. Sometimes Ani’s acquaintances greet me – they think it’s her. Before, I stood in a stupor, not understanding who was talking to me and why. And now I got used to it and I just smile so as not to frighten people, and in the end I admit that I am a twin sister. A couple of times familiar sisters told her: “Anh, why are you so angry and don’t say hello?” And that was me.

Many people ask: “How to distinguish you?” Again, my sister and I know this is pointless. For example, you say: “Julia is taller than Ani.” The person is happy that, finally, he will stop being confused. But it works as long as we are together. Meeting one of us, an unfamiliar person does not understand who is in front of him – Anya or Julia?

Maria and Daria Karpenko, 21 years old, salon administrators

Maria says:

– As soon as my mother arrived from the hospital, she tied a red thread on my arm to distinguish us. At first glance, we are very similar, but if you get to know better, it becomes clear that we are different in appearance and our characters are different. I am 5 minutes older than Dasha, slightly taller and slightly larger, and I also have moles above my lip. My sister’s features are a little softer. Since childhood, Dasha repeated everything after me: I was the first to go and the first to speak, and then she followed.

My sister and I are inseparable, at school we sat at the same desk, learned one specialty and work together. They studied in about the same way. They never cheated with teachers, although all our friends advised. We only copied from each other, and the teachers knew this, so we checked only one work. I only pretended to be my sister a couple of times at work and in the hospital.

My sister and I are very close and trust each other with all our secrets. There is a connection between us. Once, when Dasha was sorting out her relationship with her boyfriend, I experienced her emotions: I started to shake, and I began to cry, although I was in another room and did not know what was happening there. And when they made up, I felt better.

Our tastes are most often the same, but the opposite happens. We have a common hobby – we read positive psychology, sometimes take pictures, draw a little, love to dance. In our free time we spend with friends or family, play mafia, quests, bowling and much more. We are often asked the question: “Why do you dress the same?” We believe that this is the whole point of the twins – to look like two drops of water!

Artem (looking for a job) and Konstantin (operator) Yuzhanin, 22 years old

Artem says:

“It takes people a while to stop confusing us. Take, for example, a university: some of the teachers in the second week clearly saw the differences, while others were confused for more than a year. Although everything is simple: we have different hairstyles, and faces too, if you look closely. Well, and my brother’s it is wider – he is married after all!

And we have different characters. Kostya is calmer and more measured, and I am active. While we are similar in many ways, we both try to do the right thing in every situation.

As a child, we, like many brothers, constantly fought, we could not share something, but we always remained best friends. Once, in my second year at the institute, I had to hand over a report on psychology for my brother, since he was forced to be absent from the class. I changed into his clothes and passed well.

We are full of common interests: we both love outdoor activities: hiking, football, volleyball.

Now we see each other less often – he is married, he has his own life, I have my own. But he remains my brother, and we are always glad to meet!

Yana (logistician) and Olga Muzychenko (accountant-cashier), 23 years old

Yana says:

– Olya and I are constantly together. Of course, each of us goes about his own business, but we definitely see each other once a day. Now we are very different. Of course, the same features can be traced, but you can distinguish us by the haircut, by the dimples on the cheeks, by the figure, by the style of clothing.

There were many cases at school when we passed something for each other, for example, literature. At the time when I was reading the works of Bulgakov, Olya could not master even one book. When she was called to answer about his work, I got up and told him. At home, they also used it – I solved problems, she did the humanities, and then they let each other cheat. Once my mother and I were on a train to rest. I was so tired that I immediately went to bed, and my sister decided to cheer everyone up and began to sing at that time the famous song “The Boy Wants to Tambov.” And she turned her on again until she decided to go to bed. But as soon as she lay down, I woke up … and began to sing the same song! Soon, a man from the next compartment burst into us, dumbfounded by how a child can sing the same song all night.

The same guys seem attractive to us. But we will never fall in love with one person, for this we are too different. We also root for different football teams: Olya – for Zenit, I – for Ural. We read different books. But our tastes coincide in our love of art, and we often go to concerts, exhibitions, and museums together.

We both love to draw. As a child, even someone else’s car was painted (oh, we got it then!). Of course, at first we convinced everyone that this was not our doing, but later we confessed. Mom and Dad at that moment realized that we needed to be sent to an art school. There we were taught to think more broadly, to see things differently.

Kirill and Artem Verzakov, 20 years old, students

Cyril says:

– They often confuse us. One day, my brother’s girlfriend took me by the arm, deciding that I was Artyom. The question of how to distinguish is the most frequent one, but we do not know the answer to it. Our characters are almost the same, preferences converge in general in everything: we both go in for sports, we go to the gym, we are constantly looking for ways of self-development, we read books, we buy various courses in business, in English …

We shared homework at school, which helped us finish it with gold medals. The lessons were divided according to the principle: you learn one thing, I – another. We mastered all disciplines equally, so we just divided the tasks in half to make it faster. After school we entered the USUE, but at different faculties.

In our free time we go to various development forums, go to trainings. We are very interested in business. Always and in everything we motivate each other, because we cannot allow one of us to be better than the other. We are always in competition.

But there is no mental connection between us – we always refute this theory when we are asked about it.

Maria Baramykova, Polina Chirkovskaya, 31 years old, owner of a children’s online store

Maria says:

– We communicate every day, how else, if we are together all our lives: we went to the same kindergarten, to the same class at school, to the same group at the university, then worked together.

We are not very similar, so we never pretended to be each other. Once in elementary school we were seated at different desks in different rows. We wrote a dictation in Russian, after which the teacher told our mother that although we were sitting far from each other, we made the same mistakes. At the institute there was a similar case at the lectures: I missed one word and decided to watch it from Polina. But then it turned out that she had missed the same word!

In the company, we often answer in chorus without saying a word. Sometimes I talk to a person, ask him some questions, then Polina comes … and asks absolutely the same thing! In these cases, I start laughing and answer the questions myself.

Our tastes are the same, but the style of dress is slightly different. I like jeans and sneakers more. As a teenager, I had short hair, while Polina had long hair. Now both have long ones. There is a common hobby – we love to bake muffins and cakes. But Polina is fond of drawing, and I was engaged in dancing.

Despite the fact that Polya now lives in another city, we constantly communicate – only this morning we called twice via video link. I come to visit her, she – to me. We walk together, go to the cafe.

Olga Slepukhina (on maternity leave), Anna Kadnikova (seller), 24 years old

Olga says:

– Now we trust each other the most! Although in childhood there was no such mutual understanding – they constantly fought. It’s funny to remember now.

They studied in the same class at school and played basketball together for six years. We always supported each other, helped, but each did her own thing strictly, did not replace each other. Because I felt responsible and did not want to do something wrong, and then blush in front of my sister.

We differ both in appearance (I am a centimeter lower, different foreheads and smiles), and in character: my sister is very kind, trusting and naive. On the contrary, I am more strict and serious. My sister cares about my opinion about people, how I would act in some situation.

But, despite all the differences, we were often confused and confused. Even our grandparents. And people passing by always turn around and look at us. And they say to each other: “Look, they are the same,” but this is very audible.

Now we spend a lot of time with my daughter – my sister just adores her!

Alexey and Sergey Romashok, 27 years old

Alexey says:

– My brother is my best friend. We are so close that we can tell each other absolutely everything. And with age, the relationship becomes even stronger. Our tastes and interests coincide in everything. We often visit each other, we can take a walk or go to the beach.

We have never passed ourselves off as each other. Everyone lives their own life. And if an unfamiliar person cannot distinguish us, then old friends do it at a great distance, in the dark and from behind.

Ekaterina and Tatiana Twins, students

Katya says:

– We understand each other at a glance and even at a glance. We always support each other. We can also read each other’s thoughts from a distance. For example, we were in Crimea, in different hotels. And, without making an appointment, they came to the same place, at the same time. We were very surprised, because the city is big!

Our tastes and interests coincide in everything: music, clothing style, hairstyles – bunches, just both have very long hair, so it is more comfortable with a bun. If one gets sick, it means that the other will start to get sick on the same day. Therefore, we missed school, and the sports section (we used to do volleyball), and the institute, and work together (laugh)!

We have absolutely the same vision and teeth, doctors are surprised how this can be. But I (I’m 5 minutes older) have a sharper chin, and Tanya’s is round. Children most often distinguish us. Our beloved niece Vika began to distinguish us from 2 years old. Even our little godchildren do it without difficulty.

And, of course, our beloved young people Dima and Andrey began to distinguish us on the very first day we met. For them, we are not alike at all!

We really want us to have our own twin children – this is our dream. We are for each other – support and support in everything! Thanks to our mom and dad!
