My wife and I bumped into the same couple, in 6 different countries, in 6 consecutive years. Egypt, Brazil, Kenya, Costa Rica, Indonesia and then Borneo
The following (7th) year we decided on a 'stay-cation', the cottage we rented belonged to that same couple!

I had met a girl shortly after I moved to different part of the city who's a cousin of a classmate.
My current bf, who lives in a different country, we have a 10 year age gap, his sister and my daughter have a 10 year age gap, their parents have a 10 year age gap. Mine, my bf's, their dad and his mom all have a birth year ending in '4'. My bf's birthday month and day is exactly 1 month apart from my ex's.
I just notice these patterns.

At one point, all five of us in my family had prime number ages - I was 41, my husband 37, and our kids 23, 13, and 11. A few years later, it happened again (47, 43, 29, 19, 17). But by then we’d added my dad and my daughter’s brother - and they were 91 and 11.

It didn’t happen to me, but here’s something. So my sister was going out to lunch with some friends. At the restaurant, she runs into another friend and her kids already having lunch there. They laugh at it for a bit, and then apparently the mother of that friend also shows up to have lunch with her friends. None of the respective groups knew that they were going to be there, they just all decided to get lunch at the same place at the same time.

I’ve always had 2 imaginary sisters, Emily (twin) and Riley (2yrs older.) One day I told my mom I wanted to go to Montana (idk why) and with Riley. My mom asked who Riley was, thinking she was a friend of mine. I said, my sister. My mom started to cry, so I said “it’s ok, Emily can come instead” and she said “is Emily your sister too?” And I said “yes, she’s my twin.”
My mom looked shocked and explained something to me. It turns out 2 years before I was born my mom miscarried a baby girl she planned to name Riley. Even bigger coincidence? I had a twin I absorbed in the womb, but nobody knows if said twin was female.

I went to this theatre camp years ago and met this girl there. She had the exact same haircut as me, height and freckles. She even parted her hair like I did. Worse we had the same birthday! But she was a year younger than me so no sketchy twin stuff. Still kind of funny though.

In the summer before my last year of elementary school I went on my first "farther than neighbor country"-vacation trip with my parents, to one of those all inclusive ressorts, half around the globe, only to bump into a classmate in the pool.

My dad passed away 3 years ago. My mom recently started dating a family friend who also recently lost his wife. They say after they decided to make it “official” (60-70somethings are acting like they are in middle school again!), but they made it “official” and the very next day my mothers boyfriend got an email from… my dad. It was someone with his exact name but a different @ndjdudi.com. Turns out it was someone from a car club he is in, but he doesn’t know the guy and had never got an email from him before.
