i fancy a relative

ok theres some girl that i really fancy but, i think shes my second cousin.

shes my uncle's wife's sister's daughter. the uncle and wife are cousins(which is normal for them, as thats how there generation was, and they are Greek and live in Greece which adds further normality to it :smile:

) and therefore my uncles is my cousin in some way..

anyway the girl, i realy like her, i think she likes me to, and i think we both think its wrong for us to be a couple as she asked her mum how me and her are related. what do you think, and what would you do.

the problem is i didn't relise we were related until last summer, and i always fancied her a bit before, but now i realy want to **** her :biggrin:

, and i cant block it out as ive never seen her as a relative

Personally I find it a bit weird. But it I think it is only illeagal to be in a relationship with your siblings or first cousins...
You should talk to her and find out if she does actually like you because you could be misreading signals.... and even if she does like, she may have a problem with you being related....

surely if all your auntys and uncle are related as cousins, you're aunty's daughter, is still your cousin...?

edit: hmm hang on. she wouldn't be you cousin directly.. more like a cousin in law, is that a second cousin?

Meh, you're allowed to marry a cousin in the UK (whether it be first, second etc.), so go for it.

Keep in mind the age-old saying and you cant go wrong:

'Where there's a hole there's a goal, unless she's your grandmother, mother, sister, daughter or cousin in which case you stay the hell away'

gene pool, not population pool...the gene pool could stem from one family but there could still be 6 million of us. well probably genetic mutations and what not would mean not that many people would survive. but tbh who knows, we did after all derive from good ol' adam n eve :rolleyes:

EDIT: in case you didnt detect the sarcasm, please dont go ahead... I'm sure you can find someone who is not related to you out of the 6 billion of us

Don't worry about it, it happens more than you think.

People get together and then they find out their second cousins, it happens. Dont let it get in the way.
