Have you ever looked in the mirror and seen .................... your grandmother?

I just see an old lady (no idea who she is) looking back at me!!

Not so much the mirror, but shop windows. I realise how much like my dad I look.

I see my Mum in my face - my hair has gone very white and frames my face like hers. My sister comments on the resemblance every time I see her.

My brother sounds exactly like my Dad on the phone - quite upsetting for a long time after he passed.

My youngest twin has my sisters' profile - both my Mum and Husband have commented on it.

I walked quickly towards a shop which had reflective panels at ground level, and realized I walked exactly like my father. My son does too.

Since I've started pinning my hair up and wearing glasses permanently I seem to have morphed into my mother.

Not in the mirror but I have a photo of me taken in hospital after having my son, and in that I look very like my mum although never seen the likeness any other time.
I never knew my maternal grandmother as she died when my mum was a teenager. Looking through old photos after my mum died I found one of her and her mum and realised my grandmother looked just like my best friend from university days. Made me really wish I'd known her!
These days I don't feel old but when I look in the mirror I think "Who's that old hag?"

My dad and my grandmother - dad’s mum. They were the spitting image of each other and as I get older, they are both who I see looking back at me. It’s slightly unnerving I have to say.

Its strange when I was younger we would meet somebody while out shopping and they would remark how like my Mother I was then another person would come up and say how like my Father I was, I dont look like either of them, but have my Mums personality now I am older,dont tolerate fools easily and dont tolerate rudeness or bad manners.
I loved both my parents and would like to be like them both in some way.

My mum died when I was a teenager, and her younger sister took over the role of mum, she only lived two doors away so it seemed natural to turn to her if I needed female guidance. I look in the mirror now and I can see her in her older years (I'm now 70, and she died a few years ago aged 91) It does startle me a bit but she was a lovely lady and I hope I have inherited her lovely down to earth ways with both family and friends.

I see my Dad every time that I look in the mirror. However I have my grandmothers substantial bosom.

I look like my mum and she looked like my nan. My girls are doomed.

Occasionally I have looked in the mirror, especially lately and seen my mums eyes staring back at me, a bit spooky really, my dear mum departed this life at the age of only 65, she didn't really live to her full potential, when I was a child I was more like dad, but have changed with age, he lived to 101, died in 2019 sadly

That gave me a good laugh, I love the way children just have no filter ?

When I look in the mirror I see my Father's features but my Mother's face looks back at me - spooky what?

I often see my mother looking back at me. In photos of each other from young childhood onwards, the resemblance is very strong. Sometimes I see her in a photo with my children when they were small, around twenty years ago, and do a double take because it is like looking at me as l am now.

I usually have my hair cut at home so don't look in a mirror while it is being done. When my hairdresser was ill I went to one in my high street. Sat in front of the mirror with my hair pulled back I could see my dad!

No, never. My father was adopted so I wouldn't look anything like the gran i knew growing up and I never met his birth mother.

Fortunately, the only time I saw my mother out her mother in a mirror was if they were standing behind me.

I'm thankful every day that I'm not like my vile mother's side of the family.

I have my Mothers hands. As i get older I hear myself sounding more like her. She lived to be 100 and was a very good Mum. She died in 2008 and I still miss her

I look like my dad but after recently hearing myself on a video I sounded just like my aunt, my Mums sister. It was her voice exactly.

It's the lockdown wot dunnit. My hair grew very long and I kept it pinned up on top of my head - hello, Grandma!

I look like my mum, sister looks like dad.

I am the only dark haired one in a family of 5 siblings and look nothing like the others who look like mum. However, we have a photo of a great-great paternal aunt where you'd swear it was me in Victorian clothes. Paternal grandmother died before my parents met so no idea what she looked like. Maternal grandmother was auburn and fair skinned, which would have been very nice to inherit.

I look very much like my Grandma, my Father's Mum

When I look in the mirror I see my Aunt (my Dad’s sister.) Actually she looked like a female version of my dad!

I looked in the mirror about 15 years ago and saw my mothers body shape, nose, eyes and hair, but my dads lips and legs. My mum was a ginger and I'm a gingery blonde so yep, we are very similar but I am about a foot taller then her, bless her.
