Ever met someonw with your birthday?

In grad school my roommate (who was incidentally only 2 days older than me) was living with her boyfriend and sublet her room for a month to a flight attendant with my exact birthday. That was about the only thing we had in common besides the fact that between her flying internationally and me doing a rotation 2 hours away, neither of us was ever home.

Never met anyone…but there is a celeb with the same day, month, year combo. I’m not proud of her, though…I don’t like to bring it up. :slight_smile:

My first roommate in college had the same birthday and year. I was a few hours older than him.

That is only person I have met with the same birthday and year. I know several people with the same date including one of best friends.

There were two others in my high school class born on the same day as me.

Not the same year, but my mother and my mother-in-law had the same birthday. My mother was born the year my MIL came to the US after WWII. I had a young mother, and husband had older parents.

(MIL passed away in 2012.)

I’ve never met anyone from the same year, just same month/day. Back in 2003, I started a new job and met a girl who was exactly one year older than me. I was born 2/10/75 and she was born on 2/10/74. Even more interesting, we were both born during the 10:00am hour (about 12 minutes difference).

We went to lunch together on her first day (she started a few months after me) and it felt like we had known each other forever! Eleven years later, she and her hubby have moved back to their native Nashville (from Atlanta) but we talk at least once every week and never go more than two months without seeing one another. Best of all, she now has three beautiful daughters and I am their ‘godparent’.

We are definitely kindred spirits and I love her (and her husband and their girls) as much as I do any member of my own family! =)

Almost. My wife was born 25 hours before me.

Yes–sorta. An Englishman, who was born a day after me the same year. We talked about it, and if you figure time zones, we were born at approximately the same time.

In one of my high school classes there were three of us born on the same day in the same hospital. I think in school with people your own age that would not be particularly rare.

A friend who I met at a group at church, same day and year. It came up when I called her up to invite her out for my 30th birthday.

I met a woman who had the exact same birthday as mine, including the year. The odd thing was that she had the same first name as me - it’s a pretty uncommon first name, so that was kind of a mind-blower.

At least twice.

AFAICT I was the only person born in the US on that day. I guess everyone was watching Elvis Presley on TV and postponed their labor so as not to miss it.

No.

And to be fair? I’m pretty sure Russell Crowe just isn’t impressed.

ftr- Beers on me. Just shake my hand & know my name. Its not that hard.

One of my best friends has the same birthday as my brother.

Yep, 2 people.

One was a girl I went to elementary school with, so we had the joint birthday for 6 years (K-5).

The other is actually a woman I currently work with.
