Give it up. He's your cousin and you are young. Find someone else.

uhm, thats just a little odd. i dont think you actually love him, you may be confusing your family love and friendship for him for real love. whether it's legal or not, i don't think its right. i say you just give it time and as you grow up you will lose these feelings.

Dear UnperfectAlexis,

If you really love him, then you should go for it, even if he is your cousin. If you are scared, though, that you may lose that cousin bond, then I would play it safe, maybe hinting every now and then. You should try telling him he looks nice, then maybe bring up how it is legal to be with your first cousin, but do it casually.

sincerely,

Partyboy123 agony auntHey,

There are two things wrong with this...

1. marrying your first cousin is illegal, and dating them is just weird in social views.

2. your children will most likely have deformities, or special needs like down syndrome or something...

Therefore, i wouldn't say anything to him, and i would just find someone that isn't your first cousin to love..

hope i helped :)

Firstly, determine and make sure it is more than

a family/friendship bond that you are not mistaking

for lust/love.

If you truly believe you want to have a relationship

you need to tell them otherwise it will fester and

tear you up into pieces.

Good Luck!
