It's simple. I'm in love with my cousin. He's 21 and I'm 18. We met when I was 13, then again when I was 16. He lived in Florida, and I lived in Illinois. As soon as I went down there when I was 16, I was immediatly attracted to him. Face it he's HOT. So, I blew it off as a physical crush. When I went back home though, my thoughts of him didn't stop. No matter who I dated, no matter what I did, he stayed in my head. We also started chatting: aim and myspace. Now that I have graduated and moved down to Florida. I talk with him everyday. He tells me everything. From girls, to sex, to family problems. I just soo bad want to be with him. It's killing me. I'm living a lie and I don't know what to do.

I understand where you are coming from coz I was going thru the same thing.. I mean EXACTLY same thing. I start noticing a crush feeling toward my cousin when i was about uh 15 and he was like 13ish, but thought it was nothing.. until I was 19 and he was 16. the feeling was still there. we got together and did stuff. i loved him so much, but didnt work out very well coz of my family. If you want to talk to your cousin and see if things will ever go farther than the way they are right now, you might want to think about how your family would say/think, unless you dunt give any flying fack. My family wasnt very happy about it at all....

p.s dunt listen to those people who says cousin should not date. I would rather date my cousin than my siblings!!

do whatever that makes you happy =]

i wish you for the best..

if you ever want someone to talk about the whole cousin stuff, u can talk to me =]

i'm going through the exact same delimma. remember, he's the only one who has to know and sounds like he wants you as much as you want him. I would like to get a woman's perspective on this however and would like to know what happens if you decide to tell him. Hope to hear back!

samsmommy agony auntOk don't get all freaked out or anything. You asked a question and you got an answer. Get over it. It's my opinion, that's what this site is all about right? Someone asks a question and people answer it? Ok so you don't like the answer, that's not my problem. I personally don't think cousins should date. Just how I feel.

oldfool agony auntI think most people would have assumed that you have problems with your feelings for your cousin. This is normally a pretty taboo sort of thing. If you wanted advice on how to break it to him, you should have made it clear.

bleh.. im not worried about the 'morals' of it. i really dont have any. im not religous (i've seen the cousincouples.com site), our family is really small, just his my mom (my aunt) his brother, my dad (his uncle), our grandmother and grandfather, and my brother.. and the only one that would have a problem would b my grandmother, and she'd get over it easy. i just dont know how to tell HIM. ya no?

look the fact that he is your cousin makes it off limits whether you like it or not, i understand you didnt know him your whole life so to you he was a stranger that you where attracted to, i know this isnt what you want to hear but you need to let it go, for the sake of your family and the special relationship that you and your cousin have formers .. im sorry
