1)
Do you ever feel like you’re apart of something bigger than just yourself? Almost . . . a profound presence beside you?
Yes! Possibly, there’s something out there; something that makes “me” “us”.
Yes—I’ve felt it for as long as I’ve made a point/concentrated on looking for it.
Well . . . it’s not exactly “strong”, but I can still feel it; sense it, in a way.
I do feel . . . “warmth” beside me. A being, possibly? A soul? Ha; sure—maybe.
Not exactly. Sometimes I feel it, sometimes it isn’t there.
Well . . . no. I have to really search for it. It isn’t just there. I . . “force it”, you could say—possibly.
Well . . . not exactly. It’s “slight other things”, if you know what I mean.
No. It may be wishful thinking, though, that would ever summon it, if it were to come.
Not in the slightest. Also—and, in all honesty—that doesn’t make sense.
2)
Do you feel that your guardian(s) hiding a profound secret from you? Do family members . . . treat you differently, maybe?
Yes! They claim that everything’s okay/there’s nothing going on, but I know that something’s wrong. They’re hiding something really important.
Yes. Despite the fact that it doesn’t appear that they’re lying, I almost ‘wish’ that they are, . . . well, I think II know that they are.
. . . Sort of? I feel a lie, I . . . understand it, but that could ‘so easily’ be a wishful mind.
Well . . . no. We’re a pretty transparent family, and whenever I bring up this topic, they laugh it away, like a humorous joke.
No. I’ve tried to detect any hint of a lie whenever I bring up ‘this’ particular topic, but I honestly can’t find anything.
No. I think it’s just my family being themselves—they were always a little secretive, but I am to them, too.
Not at all. I know that they’re being honest—I’m not a twin. Or . . . maybe they just don’t know that I am?
Well, I’m actually adopted, and therefore I don’t think that they’d even know themselves if I have a twin, so, . . . no.
I’m adopted, and—while they may not know everything about my family history—I think they know I have a twin. So, yes. They are.
3)
Do you—yourself—think that you’re a twin?
Yes! I can almost swear on it!
Yes. I feel a gravitational pulling; a complete walkthrough in my mind—‘I’m a twin’.
No; not exactly. The only evidence I have is my own mind and body telling me. Everything else? Nope. But, I still think I could be a twin, probably.
No. It’s way more wishful thinking than anything else. I feel little pumps of “I’m a twin; I’m a twin”, yet, there I am, knowing that I’m sitting in a room by myself.
Nope. I don’t think I’m a twin at all. Then again, even if I don’t think I’m a twin, I still could be one. Who cares what I personally think?
Not at all. There’s no chance in my mind that I’m a twin, yet, . . . who knows, I guess?
Not in the slightest. I’ve strung the clues together, yet to find that all I was left with was red yarn, connected to absolutely nothing. Oh, well.
Absolutely not, but . . . maybe my twin passed away in birth? Or . . . y’know, Tia and Tamara didn’t think they were twins.
One-hundred-percent not. There’s absolutely no chance in my mind.

5)
If you would not mind answering . . . we’re you born prematurely? And, if so, how early?
Yes—I was born three months prematurely.
Yes; I was premature by two months.
Yep; I was unfortunately premature. It was by a month.
Yes, and I was born two-to-three weeks prematurely.
No; I was not premature. Despite going the full nine months, though, I think I could’ve been premature. Like . . . a lie.
No; I went the full nine months. I was certainly not premature.
Nope, but maybe everyone’s lying. I guess I could’ve been premature, but the chances are very, very slim.
6)
Are there any cases of multiples on your biological mother’s side of the family?
Yes! There’s a series of multiple births running in her family.
Well . . . a few, but, really, not that many.
I’m not sure, since I was/am adopted and have never met my biological mother.
I don’t know. 🤷♀️.
I think, but I honestly don’t have much of an idea.
I don’t know, since my biological mother was adopted.
7)
Were you conceived using the assistance of IVF or IUI/any other type of fertility help?
Yes! I was conceived using IVF.
Yes! I was conceived using IUI.
Yes! I was conceived using another type of fertility help!
No; I was conceived naturally.
I don’t know, due to the fact that I am/was adopted.
My guardian(s) say “no”, but I really think I may have been.
My guardian(s) say “no”, but I guess I could have been. 🤷♀️.
8)
Do you have any biological siblings?
Yes! I’m the youngest against my one older sibling.
Yes! I’m the youngest against my two older siblings.
Yes! I’m the middle child between me and my two siblings.
Yes! I’m the oldest against my younger sibling.
Yes! I’m the oldest against two-to-three-or-more!
Yes! I’m the youngest against three-to-four-or-more!
Yes! I’m the middle child/nor the oldest or youngest against three-to-four-or-more!
I don’t know. 🤷♀️.
No—I’m an only child.
9)
Were you brought into this world via Caesarean section (C-section)?
Yes! I definitely was.
No; I was not born via C-section.
Honestly? I have no idea.
My guardian(s) say/s I wasn’t, but there’s this gravitational nagging in my mind that tells me I was.
My guardian(s) say/s I wasn’t, but there’s always a possibility that I was. 🤷♀️.
10)
If you don’t mind my asking, do(es) your guardian(s) seem to be depressed at times/have depression? You don’t need to answer this if you don’t want to—it’ll give you two points if you click “I’d Rather Not Answer”.

No; my biological parent(s) never showed any pictures of my infant self to me.
No; although, I’m adopted, and my adoptive parent(s) don’t/doesn’t have any photographs of me as an infant.

Yes—her stomach looked rather large for just a single-birth pregnancy.
Yes, but her stomach was just a normal size.
Yes, but her stomach was just a little bit larger than usual.
No—I’m adopted and my adoptive parent(s) doesn’t/don’t have access to the photographs.
