   Yes.  It's always surprising when you experience one. People often think alike and then when they respond similarly it is amazing... what a coincidence.

   yes, sometimes I'll be thinking of someone and they'll call...out of the blue! I've had other instances as well and it's kind of cool.

   Yes.  We started out in So. Calif as kids, moved all over ended up in MT.  After moving to MT, we had dinner with an older couple and after a lot of talking, found out that when my husband was a kid, his family bought a dog from this gal's mother.  She even showed him a picture of the house and he remembered going there for the dog.
   
   It was a huge strange coincidence.

   Oh yes, many times!  However, there's no such thing as a "coincidence".  The root of the word is "coincide". Therefore what one person would call a "coincidence", I call simply two or more events happening, for one reason or another, at the same time.  Like picking up the phone to call a friend and that friend is already on the other end of the line.  "Coincidences" are nothing more than the cosmos having a bit of fun with us backward humans. ;D

   Yes, in a way as I have met someone that happened to be there during my trip in hiking.
   
   It happened not only twice but three times and it is really coincidence since we didn't know each other nor it was a planned trip.
   
   After the third meet, we decided to chat and now we are friends.

   All the time. I've dreamed events that later occurred in waking life, looked for things that weren't there and found them, experienced the past. Time is not the momentary phenomenon we think it to be, the material world is not all there is.
