I feel in love with my third cousin what do I do?

[Anonymous]

So me and my 3rd cousin really never spent a lot of time together yet any time we hung out we got along amazing not moving better we got to our curious stages but weren’t told it was wrong till we were older we also would flirt with eachother giving the wrong signals than pulling back out of fear to disgust the other.. the other day we confronted eachother about our feelings and even kissed but now I think we are both nervous we know socially it’s wrong but I don't know what to do.

Carry on! If you are true 3rd cousins , you are sufficiently far apart in the blood lines to get married and have kids.

To be true 3rd cousins, each of you will have one parent that are 2nd cousins. One grandparent will be 1st cousins and one grest grandparent will be sibling.

Hope I explained that ok?

Sorry about typos. Poor eyesight now.

It is rare, but in UK 1st cousins can marry.

It’s shamed in the U. S. despite a president doing it and as you said it’s scientifically okay because of how far the bloodline is we just are working out how to feel

[Asker]

We are not sure how to feel and kinda we’re pursuing other relationships when this happened out of the blue

If it is legal, and what you both want, then go for it. Don't let happiness slip throgh your fingers.

That really isn't that closely related to be concerned, in my opinion. I used to know a guy who married his second cousin and no one thought it was a big deal.

[Asker]

Our family would never approve so we’d potentially be disowned it’s a huge decision plus there are a lot of complications involved that I’d rather pm

[chrissykerdock]

legally you can date marry your 3rd cousin... it's your 1st cousin you have to worry about
