As an identical twin, I immediately have a stronger connection with him than the average person would with their sibling. We are two halves of the same whole - polar opposites with diametrically opposing skills, attributes and personalities. Yet we are inseparable. When we were young, of course we had different interests, however we made a pact that if one wanted to do something, the other had to as well. So if one wanted to do Taekwondo, the other would to. Same goes with soccer, singing, dancing and acting lessons, badminton, musicals, etc. We are extremely close, even to the extent that upon a single glance I can practically read exactly what he is thinking. A common preconception among twins is that they can read each others minds, and whilst we can't read each others minds, we have spent so much time together that we practically can tell what each other are thinking at all times.
