an existential double of a living person;

like doppelgänger, but in existence not appearance;

a person who is uncannily similar in terms of interest, behaviour and existence in general to you, to the point where it's scary but somehow epic simultaneously.

origin - Dutch translation of "counterpart"
DUDE! I Just spoke to this guy/girl, he's/she's exactly like me!

like a doppelgänger?

No, even better, a tegenhanger. Looks very different, but thinks and behaves exactly the same!
