I definitely look like my mother's side of the family.

I look substantially more like my mother than my father, but inherited a much lighter version of his skin tone (my father is olive skinned and I ended up kind of pale greenish). Though I don't look THAT much like either one.

I look mostly like a combination of my father's mother and my mother's father.

Default Who do you resemble more, Mom or Dad

I have been told that I resemble my mom more.

growing up when i was with mom, everyone would exclaim "she looks just like you". when i was with my dad, everyone would say the same thing. now that i'm older....i look like my mom, but behave like my father (there's good & bad in that statement)

on my dad's side of the family, there is a nose & cheeks combo that is passed down (mostly females get it). if you look at a picture of me when i was a tween, compare it to my aunt or any of my female cousins at roughly the same age - it looks EXACTLY like me. i mean, EXACTLY. i haven't figured out where the nose comes from, but it's a little spooky. i was half a$$ed watching a pbs special one time about mobsters in the 20s & they showed a wedding picture of one of them. i swear, that was ME in the wedding photo.

Everyone used to tell us that my mom and me looked like sisters when I was growing up.

I think I favor both overall. There is no doubt.
