I disagree with duplicate

As much as I love being a twin, I kept asking myself Will I be comfortable with another person just like me? Is it truly what I wanted? Even though I have a younger sister, I've always wished for a twin sister. I believed my twin would understand me more, and we would do things in common, but when I saw this prompt, I took my time to think deeply and imagine how it would feel to finally have someone else exactly like me. Would she also be angry when I'm angry? That will be disastrous if we have the same level of anger. Will the clone version of me understand my feelings each time? Will this clone be able to solve my problems or create more for me? These are the questions running through my mind but after deeply thinking about it, I concluded that I don't want a clone version of me.

Many might be wondering why I said so when there were multiple tasks this clone could help me with. Well, you're right if that's how you viewed it from your perspective but I have a different view about it. This prompt stated that a clone that looks exactly the same as me, shares my mood and feels what I feel, oh! That's huge, a lot of misunderstandings can arise if I have such a look-alike. While writing this post, something happened, and I wish I had another version of myself that would have helped me to do the task. The rain is heavily falling here, the cover to where the generator was kept had been opened by the rain but I can't enter into the rain to close it, I just have to leave it and also the banner covering one side of the dog house had been removed by the rain but I couldn't enter into the rain to cover it back, that was when I wished there was another me which could have probably helped me with such tasks in the rain.

While I was thinking and wishing, I never changed my mind about not agreeing to be cloned. Looking at it from my perspective, the disadvantages are much more than the advantages. In this post, I will be mentioning a few of the disadvantages I thought cloning myself would bring, which will or might affect me one way or the other.

• Identity confusion:- if I were to have a clone version of myself, family, friends, and my loved ones would be confused, trying hard to figure out which one is the real me. It will be difficult for my family to trust the clone, they might not want to associate or relate with her. If she keeps staying in my space, they might say something to her that is meant for the real me and not the clone, which might be the beginning of a problem, because I believe a machine can never replace my natural self, and this might attract legal actions.

• Loss of privacy:- one of the things I love most is privacy. Being in my space with no disturbance whatsoever. Doing things that make me happy and enjoying the little time I have for myself. Since my clone looks just like me, it could impersonate me, and this is very dangerous as it can compromise my reputation, bank accounts, and my social media interactions, which I wouldn't want.

• Competition:- I never play the game of competition; my clone might compete with me for opportunities, friends, jobs, and relationships, creating rivalry.

• Unpredictable behaviour:- my clone might decide to develop a different personality, habit, or values that might be unpredictable and could damage my reputation if she acts wrongly in public.

For these reasons, I would choose not to accept the offer of getting myself cloned. I would rather be all by myself and live a peaceful life.

Thanks for your time and your comments will be appreciated.
