Knowing a Stranger?

Question

has anyone ever felt like they knew a person just walking by on the streets and have never met him/her?

Answer 1

Yes, I feel its a past life thing. I have spoke to people online and known straight away that they would become friends soon also.

Answer 2

All the time, and I have given it thought.  I think either 1. that this is us all recognizing archetypes in each other subconsciously or 2. we recognize each other from any number of various lives, past and future.  Of course, there's always 3. you do know them, just forgot that you did.

Answer 3

i have felt like i know a complete stranger... i guess the feeling is deja' vu... i hate saying coincidence, because i always have the feeling its not... there are some people i feel like i have known forever, but have never met them before then... i would compare the feeling to 'love at first sight, ' just minus the love, its just like you know them at first sight... well, i suppose the word would be intuition...either term would work...

Answer 4

Yes many times I have. I also have many people that know me though I have not faintest clue who they are.

Answer 5

For me it actually has happened often.  My belief is it was likely someone I once knew in a previous life. Once a complete stranger, who I hadnt seen, approached me and asked if wed ever met? As I looked him over I had the distinct feeling of being related to him. Ends up his 1st & middle name is exact as one of my brothers and his fathers 1st name is my maiden name. We exchanged info to talk at a later date; his wife called, we went over family histories and found out we are actually related from way back to 1570 Scotland. Hows that for weird!?

Answer 6

Yes...but like hippie said...sometimes it's because we've shared the same experiences.  I know this isn't the same...but I was in the hospital with a girl. Months later I bumped into her...but couldn't place who she was. I said  to her..."We were good friends, weren't we?" She said "Yes" .She remembered me..but all I could remember was that we had shared the same experience.

Answer 7

Yes, and when you start talking to them.....it's wierd but in a cool sort of way.

Answer 8

yea like one time i was in the mall and i saw thids guy that i thot i have seen him somewere ells

Answer 9

Yeah, it's weird isn't it.

Answer 10

Yes its because they are from your past lives.You know its very rare to find someone from a previous life.Its ever rarer to meet someone you loved in a previous life.True love never dies.Your soul always remember true love.I believe if you meet a person in this life you loved in a previous life you will fall in love with that person just with one eye contact.Most people marry for love but its not the truest love you can experience.Believe it or not the best place to find a lost love is being around a lot of people every day like in high school.The more people you meet the more likely you will find a lost love from a previous life.This happened to me once but it never worked out as the love was too powerful for me to control and i was too young to understand what really  was going on.Anyway she was way  too pretty for me as well.The power is indescribable.

Answer 11

Totally!! very weird

Answer 12

No, I regard strangers with fear and suspicion.

Answer 13

hey cia, are you sure that you did'nt see that someone in a ghost ship or something? anyway, this guy that i met the other day gave me the same sense. and when he looked at me, he also felt that he had known me before. and he is a old hippie, what a trip! and without shrooms.
