Dear BG,

I was dumped by the love of my life three years ago. I was totally heartbroken. Then last spring, I ran into her twin sister and we started dating.

The ex-girlfriend is now married and lives across the country. She made it known that she wasn't supportive of us seeing each other in any way. I ended the relationship as a result, but am now having second thoughts. My brain tells me that I am just looking for trouble and to stay away. But my heart tells me get back in touch with the sister. Please help?

-- What Am I Thinking?

Dear What Are You Thinking,

What are you thinking? Um, you're thinking, "Hey, twin #2's a lot like twin #1!" And I'M thinking your deal is like one of those plotlines where they just cast the same actress to play both parts. Even if these two are fraternal twins -- opposites, even -- it's just...too fishy, dude. And too tricky a situation to allow you ever to get over Twin #1. Listen to your head, and follow your heart toward, say, an only child. They're actually pretty cool.

Love,
Breakup Girl
