A female reader, anonymous, writes (17 August 2006):

are you related by blood or is one of you adopted? if you aren't related by blood, then that would be better (see my reasons below).

my suggestion if you don't want to try to be with him is to try and focus on something or someone else. try to keep your distance from him until you get over this. if you have to see him over holidays and whatnot, then try to avoid talking to him, but remain polite. don't get too close to him and do not end up alone anywhere with him.

if you want to be with him, that's a whole other story and maybe you could talk to him about what his perfect girl would be like and see what he says.

i don't advocate getting together with family members because it could be really bad if you had kids (medical problems), not to mention if word ever got out to his/her peers your child would never hear the end of it (which would be stressful for not just your kid, but the both of you). plus if you two were to split up, it might cause a huge problem within your family (if people were to take sides, etc).

just remember that if you do decide to get together with him, there will be a lot of people who won't like your decision, so just be prepared for nasty comments.

good luck with whatever you decide.

you're going to have to be more specific than that - does your cousin know? how does he/she feel? does anyone else know? do you want to try and pursue the relationship or not? i don't know how to help if i'm unsure of any details...
