Introduction
Anyone of you have ever felt that this thing has already happened to you before? You start predicting that this can happen to you in the future. I came to this house before, I visited this place before, I have met this person before etc. Or something like this will surely happen to you! If yes, then there is a concept behind it that this called Alternate Reality. In this short post, I will try to explain Alternate Reality in a way that a layman could easily grasp this concept.
Let's Start With an Example
Suppose you were born (Obviously you were) at this time!
Now there are two possibilities, either you will be a girl or a boy!
If you are born boy then two or more possibilities will be opened and same goes to the scenario where you are born girl. Now there are many decision making processes in your life and it goes on and on and on like this!
Now you have to make a decision in your life, you are in grade 10 and you have to decide if you are going to select Sciences, Arts or Commerce as majors! Same goes with the girl scenario, if you are a girl, then you also have three choices, Sciences, Arts and Commerce.
As a boy, you decided to select Commerce and now you have again many options, you can become a teacher, a businessman, an accountant etc. And same thing happened if you were a girl, you selected Commerce as a major and now you have the same options! Like this example, there are infinite possibilities of any happening in your life! Alternate Reality says that if you were born either as a girl or boy, there are different world of each, one world where you are a boy and other where you are a girl. There is one world where you have taken Commerce and another world where you have selected Arts as your major! Like this, there are infinite worlds where many things are happening. These two corresponding timelines sometimes connects with each other and you think like you have done this thing before as this has already happened in the past!
So has it ever happened like you have done something in another world and you are experiencing the same condition in reality?
Love!

Yes, it has happened to me as well many times. It's called deja vu. I didn't know what you have explained but i read somewhere few years back that it's lack of observation which makes us think like that. When we are in a situation where we don't pay attention to closer details then it's likely in future when a similar situation happens or some event which has even smallest of relation to that particular event in past which we didn't observe closely, we then get this feeling that it has happened before.

I guess what you're referring to is deja vu. And there are so many explanations out there from so many disciplines that attempt to understand this phenomenon. One being that sometimes our short term goes directly into the long term memory because of a delay in synapses, which causes the feeling of having seen or experienced something before.
It's a very interesting phenomenon though. We should read your more on this :D

Hahaha no I don't think so, deja vu is partly yes. But AR sounds like some sci-fi stuff :P
