Who Are You Told You Look Like?

Mine has always been Patrick Swayze (RIP). My wife’s friends have always referred to me as Patrick or Dalton from his character in Road House since my 20s. I guess I can see it, especially when I was younger. Always had the hair anyway.

The world is a worse place for his loss. And good on ya!
 
For years, people have told me they thought I looked like a young Desi Arnaz. My response was always, "Meh." I just didn't see it.

Then a few years ago, somebody I knew sent me an email that contained only this picture...

...and my immediate reaction was, "Who is that woman I'm with?" and "Is this guy trying to blackmail me?"

I was in a bit of a panic until I recognized the woman in the picture was a young Lucille Ball. And then I realized the guy in the bathrobe had to be a young Desi Arnaz.

I must have stared gape-jawed at this picture for a solid 20 minutes. It was like I was looking into a mirror lifted straight out of the Twilight Zone.

If ever there was a dead ringer for me, this picture surely is it. I don't even have to post a comparison pic. There is absolutely no difference whatsoever.

When Haunting of Hill House first came out, I’d get stopped on the street multiple times a day to be told I look just like Carla Gugino as Olivia. My boyfriend at the time was totally mesmerized by the similarity, too. I can see it, definitely!
So in other words, you’re gorgeous! I loved that show so much.
