People have thought we were siblings before. :unsure:

I don't think we look alike in features, but we have pretty much exactly the same coloring.

Yup, same here. It's because not only do we look vaguely alike but that we're both extremely young looking, especially Alex (most people guess he is 14). We get a few strange looks when we're together in public. Comments we have received upon discovering that no, we are a couple have ranged from awkward-sounding 'Oh's to 'are you sure they're old enough to get married?' (to Alex's mother).

We have different colouring. I have dark eyes and hair and he has green eyes and lighter coloured hair. We have similar faces; similar shape, similar cheeks, similar enough nose. The rest isn't really alike at all but people look at your overall face rather than individual features and the shape and nose is what I suppose they see first.

He's an inch shorter which also doesn't help the whole he-looks-like-my-younger-brother situation. I can pick him up easily (he hates that).

My wife says that Peruvians think that it's a really good sign when a couple looks like bro/sis. They say it's a sign that the relationship will be long and happy.

:unsure: Okay.........

He is brown naturally, mine is artificial. He has short dark brown hair, mine is blonde, long and curly (but I straighten), His eyes are chocolate brown, mine are blue-green. I'm tall at 5' 11" and he is taller at 6' 2". We are both athletic in build. He is extremely intelligent, I try not to be. I like to shop, he just likes to reap the rewards. He is sarcastic, I am emotional. He loves sports, I do too.

He is the yin to my yang. :thumbs:

John - Blonde, blue-eyed, 5"9', Tans if a moonbeam hits him, athletic( all that farming does wonders)

Me - Dark Brunette, Dark brown eyes, 5"2' (on a good day in the morning), Pale, love the sunlight but it hates me, so I protect myself with 30+ otherwise go red then peel and white. Voluptuous figure ;)

And then add 9 years difference in age.

But like Sassy1natl we are yin and yang to each other.

My husband has dark skin, dark eyes, and dark think and wavy hair. He has a muscular build (in great shape) and is 5'10".

I'm 5'9", very pale, blue eyed, and have blonde straight hair. I have an "average" build for my height.

My husband and I (besides our height) are like night and day - or as many people call us "coffee with milk". Our future children will be so beautiful :innocent: .

MY father said we are coffee and milk too..Lol

God is Great .. God is good... all the time..
