People often spend a lot of time trying to find a miracle cure that will keep them from getting old. The search for the fountain of youth is a major source of inspiration for a wide range of companies that make cosmetics, beauty care products, and even plastic surgeons. But some people, like the main character in today’s story, don’t seem to care at all about getting older. Joleen Diaz is 45 years old, but she looks as young as her own daughter. She is here to introduce herself and talk about some interesting things in her life.
Many people have said that the mother and daughter look so much alike that they could be twins.
Meilani Parks, who is now 22 years old, and her 45-year-old mother, Joleen Diaz, have recently made waves on the internet with a couple of photos that are hard to believe that they posted to Instagram. When the women were photographed in bikinis on the beach, they looked like they were twins.
Instagram users couldn’t keep their cool in the face of this phenomenon, so they gave the mom a lot of compliments. Even though they are 24 years apart in age, these California girls are used to being thought of as sisters. Joleen says that her daughter doesn’t mind when people compare her age to that of her own mother.
She explains,
While she was growing up, she would often hear people tell me they thought my mother was my sister.
So, we can see that their family has always had this trait.
Joleen’s youthful appearance can sometimes get in the way of things.
Joleen Diaz moved to California when she was 10 years old. Since then, she has taught high school. The woman has been living alone ever since she broke up with her husband and Meilani’s father.
Now that she is a real Instagram star, younger men often send her direct messages telling her how interested they are in her. She says that people reported her Hinge profile because, because she looks young, they thought she was a catfish.
I’ve had my account deleted several times,
the woman said.
It’s funny, I think people think I’m a fake account and report me.
The duo is more than just being mother and daughter.
Now, the mother and daughter, who look exactly the same, each have their own profile on a different dating app. They like going on double dates together and approving of each other’s potential romantic interests.
When we are both seeing people, we will often go bowling, to the movies, hikes, to the beach,
Joleen said in her interview.
Meilani asks for my advice on dating all the time. I love that she trusts in the advice I give. I feel like she’s well-balanced in dating and I’m glad my experiences can help her out.
The young, mother-like woman claims that the Internet portrays her incorrectly.
The beautiful brunette has over 600,000 Instagram followers, with whom she often shares her dazzling selfies and pictures of herself in bikinis. She hopes that the photos she posts will show people what kind of person she really is. She says,
I could link my Instagram to my profile, which would likely help prove that it’s really me but I don’t do it because I think my social media doesn’t present the simple, down-to-earth person I am.
Joleen wants to get rid of the idea that she is flashy, which comes across in her Instagram profile.
I’d like to be able to connect with someone and then explain my social media to them once they know me a bit more,
she says.
Joleen still has hope that she will find true love at some point in her life.
Even though younger men often talk to women on social media and apps, she is happy to let her daughter do the work of getting the attention of millennials.
Age isn’t a deal-breaker for me, but I don’t want to date a toyboy,
she revealed in her interview.
I would never even remotely consider dating someone who is young enough to be friends with my daughter.
Any grown-up man who wants to date Joleen must first meet the rules set by her.
I gravitate toward ambitious, motivated men, someone who is confident, has a positive outlook, and can communicate well,
she said.
The mother and daughter plan to keep going on double dates for the foreseeable future, at least until they find someone who can complete them.
What do you think about the special relationship between a mother and her daughter? Would you go on a double date with your kid?
