Scenario: You wake up one day in your bed, and sitting up staring at you is...you. After the initial shock, you and your double talk with each other and it seems that you both have lived the same life, sharing the same memories and knowing exactly the same things. Just like you, your double claims to have gone to bed alone in their room the previous night and woke up with a double next to them.
Knowing yourself and the type of person you are, would you trust this "clone" of yourself?
If you wouldn't trust this double, what would you do? Keep in mind that if you don't trust your double, they probably don't trust you either.
If you were to trust this double, what would you do with them? example: mischief? sharing the same life?
LMAO...
That'd be awesome.
I'm such damaged goods (emotionally deadened, trust-issues) that trust is all I'm concerned about.
My clone would know this, and we would trust each other instantly, pool our resources, and cast our metaphorical nets to the sea for jobs, relationships, and all that other 'living stuff' without a care in the world, as we'd know we'd have ourselves to rely on. Rather than me always looking over my shoulder and second-guessing the motives of those close to me; planning for them to fail me in some way.
I actually asked myself this question a few days ago, while wondering why I actively don't want to bother with relationships.
I know I'm a good person, and I know how "variable" (Psycho bipolar suicidal) women can be, so my paranoia of betrayal or much-more-likely carrying another's baggage causes my

Good topic, sir.
