How similar are you to your parents?

[universetwisters]

About a week or so ago, me and a buddy were talking and I said that I think I'm kinda like my dad, how we both had the big nose and long hair and love for scale models and folk rock. My buddy said she was nothing like her parents. It then got me thinking, how similar are you to your parents, or other family members for that matter? I guess this goes for both appearances/personalities aswell.

[blitz]

I don't think I'm anything like either of my parents.

 

And thank god for that, too.

[Saikou]

Neither me, or my sister look anything like my parents. Nor are we like them.

 

Thank god for that.

[beanzinapot]

Neither me, or my sister look anything like my parents. Nor are we like them.

 

Thank god for that.

Wow. That's a bold statement. Are your parents really that bad?

[na89340qv0n34b09q340]

I noticed a couple months ago that I started doing these hacking coughs that sound just like my dad's coughs. He's a smoker though, so they're probably not healthy.

 

Apparently I act like him too, and that kinda pisses me off, but I know he'd be pissed off if someone said he acted like his father, so I'm not sure how I want to feel now.

 

Never got to know my mom very well. She slept a lot, and she liked to sing to herself in the kitchen, so that's some things in common. I'm not so angry about that, but if she was around when I was at the point in my life where I started disliking my dad I'd probably be mad about being like her too.

I'm exactly like my mother. It's scary.

[t3h PeNgU1N oF d00m]

My entire family looks just like each other. Even the ones that aren't blood-related look like each other. It's almost uncanny.

 

The Swaggins family is a dosile species, native to the mid-southern United States. They can often be characterized by their brown/blonde hair, short-to-medium stature, and incompetent behavior. Members of the family have the tendency to sleep for long periods of time and sh*tpost on GTAForums.

[MarshalMoo]

On a scale of one to 10, 10 being my dad, I am a seven. A nine, I've found, if I sit in his chair when he isn't around.

[98 in 1]

Not even f*cking close. I don't share any of my mother's facial traits and the only thing I've taken (or rather gotten) from my dad is his big nose, complexion, and nappy hair.

 

As for personality, not even f*cking close to the nth degree. Complete opposite is an understatement.

[THE GHETTO JEZUS]

Well for me I was an accident and wasn't planned and also several months after I was developing my grandma wanted to abort me too but somehow I was able to get through those and now here I am.

 

But for appearance wise I look more like my dad but personality wise I'm more like my mom.

[GTA_stu]

Appearance wise I'm pretty close to my dad, although in one respect I'm not. He's fifty eight, and his hairline is lower than mine. His hairline hasn't receded, mine has. Motherf*cker. Although he does have a bald spot and he's thinning, luckily I don't and I'm not. Between us though we have all the different kinds of balding covered. I also can grow a much better beard than him, which is saying something because mine is still sh*t.

 

I also look quite like my mum, I've got brown eyes/hair like her. My dad has blonde hair blue eyes. Well it's grey now I suppose. I've got a very similar nose to her and similar cheekbones.

 

In terms of personality though I'm way more like my dad. He's smart and I'm smart, my mum's dumb. He's calm and I'm calm, my mum is fiery tempered.

[I<3GTAV]

Appearance wise, I get my dad's family's facial features and my mom's hair and nose color. Personality wise, I'm more like my dad. We're both gamers, have anxiety, and enjoy travelling.

[Punisher.]

I'm exactly like my mother. It's scary.

 

Having seen a picture of you in the old members topic, I'm sure that is quite scary j/k.

 

My mom always told me I look a lot like my dad, he died before I got to know him though. I'm the opposite to my mom, but I do have a tendency to worry about people way too much, like she does at times.

[headmetalbanger]

A mix of both.

[Krul]

The older I get, the more I realize that I'm just like my father. Stubborn, short-tempered, with a strong work ethic. Got his sh*tty short-sighted eyes,and stockyish build.

 

I'm going to be just like him

[Kalvin]

In the way of appearance, I have no resemblance to the male side of my family, only small things similar to my mum and sister.
Behaviour-wise though; I'm a mix of every family member, both my brothers, my dad, my mum, and my sister.

Not sure if that's a good thing, though.

[BuyMeTheMoon]

Well, I don't know my dad, but I'm a lot like my mother, and I don't like it, but I can't help it either. I try not to, though, but it's hard. In the appearance I'm not that similar to her but people say they can see that I'm her daughter

[BrownBear]

I'm exactly like my dad. Lazy, unmotivated, hot blooded and proud. He's definitely not a role model, but we get on really well, my dad's the sort of person who I'll have a drink and a smoke with while my mum's who I'd confide in.

Appearance wise I have nothing from my mum. Me and my brothers both have dark skin and dark hair from my dad's side, but my sister is pale like my mum, you probably wouldn't be able to tell I'm half Irish.

[orbitalraindrops]

I hope i'm nothing like them although I do definitely have some mannerisms of theres and look a bit like my mum.

[Graven]

Why would I be similar to my parents? I got nothing to do with them.

 

[MarshalMoo]

As for my mom, I'm about four out of 10 like her because our personalities are dissimilar. I got more of her appearance and people sometimes confuse us when I answer her home phone.

[RiaJay21]

More similar than I'd like to admit.

 

I have my dad's extremely short temper, cynicism, somewhat sadistic sense of humour, discipline techniques and ... eyes, I guess.

 

If someone was to pay me every time I get told how much I look/sound/act like my mother, I'd legitimately be very rich right about now. Which is ... so-so, to me. I admire my mom, and how she's able to see the good in absolutely anyone (and, even though we're talking about a fictional character here, she was even sympathetic towards Trevor), but she can't see her own self worth. She's the most selfless person I know. The kind of person to give the last of her money to a homeless person.

 

I'm not nearly as kind, even though people think I am. I am selfless, yes, when it comes to customer service where I work. But at times, it's usually because I'm fighting to make the best out of my career.

 

Don't get me wrong, I try to be a good person, but I'm not as good as she is.

[MarshalMoo]

I was ready to conclude all of you were cock gobblers, because so many people liked my post about my dad, but then PaletoChickenCapo liked my post about my mom.

[Johan]

Plenty of times I've been told by friends of the family that I look just like my mother, and the only thing I have in common with my dad is my nose and our personality

[Shah Sam]

I've got my dads nose and I'm skinny like him.

 

 

I've got my skin colour from my mom.

 

 

I tend to be a very "unserious" like my dad very often, but I'm a pretty good at school and I like to be as accurate as possible just like my mom.

 

 

I like how I'm a combination of both. My mom worries too much, and my dad is the complete opposite, so I'm somewhere in the middle.

[DEALUX]

But for appearance wise I look more like my dad but personality wise I'm more like my mom.

Pretty much this, although I'm glad to say that I haven't successfully inherited much of their behavior and beliefs. Unlike most of my family members (extended family included), I am not racist, homophobic, or sexist.

[GN 92]

Dark Brown hair, green~brown eyes.

Tall (195cm)

Simple man with good intentions. Hard worker.

Family first. Believe in God.

 

A mix between mom and dad.

 

That's all i can think at the moment.
