It is not usually very uncommon that someone tells me he/she knows an acquaintance or a friend who looks like me (I guess it is due to my "standard" look) but to see someone who really looked like me was a different feeling.
It happened once in a faraway city. A face just flashed for seconds in the crowd and I felt like looking in the mirror. One hour later I ran into the same person in a restaurant and asked my company to look and tell me what he saw. My friend replied: God, he looks exactly like you.
I felt a strange intimacy and resisted an urge to go and talk to him or at least to keep carefully looking at him.
