“Because what’s sexier than dating yourself?” Tumblr Page Documents Gay Couples Who Look Exactly Like Each Other

The resemblance is uncanny.

Do you sometimes feel like you and your partner are exactly the same person? There’s apparently a whole new level to that feeling.

For the couples on the tumblr page Boyfriend Twins, their similarities aren’t just based on similar interests or thought processes or political/religious beliefs or whatever other meaningful stuff couples say they connect on.

They literally look like each other. We’re not exaggerating at all.

Do siblings even look this alike?

We wouldn’t say “creepy” but we’re somewhere in that neighbourhood:

The founder also reportedly stated that the point of the blog is to generate a longer conversation surrounding issues of “narcissism, exhibitionism and sexuality.”

The page was originally going to be called “dopplebangers” and has gotten a huge response on Tumnblr from proud couples, sometimes even in matching outfits.

We’re a little concerned about what this might imply about how much we love ourselves.
