Twins share a special relationship that is beyond that of conventional siblings, but this doesn’t designate that twins can read each other’s minds. Some twins may seem to know each other’s thoughts, by speaking at the same time or completing each other’s sentences. It has been suggested that twins have special telepathy and that they have extrasensory perception (ESP) but there is no scientific evidence to confirm this.
Also, twins know each other so well that they can often predict how their twin will act or what they will say. And many twins, whether due to genes or environment, just have the same instincts, tendencies or preferences, which is why they do similar things, often simultaneously.
