Maybe because Kaworu has Adam DNA, and Rei has Lilith DNA...? Just a guess on my part, I don't think the show ever clarified that point.

EDIT: Ah, okay. From http://www.evaotaku.com/html/evafaq.html

Q) In episode 24, Kaworu says to Rei, "You're just like me... We've both taken the lilim's form as our body to live on this planet." What did he mean by that?

A) In a very real sense, Kaworu is to SEELE what Rei is to NERV - that is: a tool for their own ends.
Kaworu is a cloned body (albino - pale skin/hair, red eyes) with the soul of a Source of Life (Adam)
Rei is a cloned body (albino - pale skin/hair, red eyes) with the soul of a Source of Life (Lilith).

This is why Kaworu tells her "You're just like me.." They both have human/Lilim forms, but their souls are that of Sources of Life who gave birth to Angels and Lilim, respectively.
