But here is how it is. His Great great grandmother is my dads sister! So what does that make us? not close related or? He is of another nationality and by the time his mother had him he is like 1/4 native. So does that make it wrong? I only remember him when he was little and they grew up in a cali I would visit off and on but never knew him, came across him from a friend and we started talking. In the beginning I was fighting with myself about it really I was so mad at myself for it. He was very persistant as well. He did not care as we did not grow up with one another now it does not bother me and some of my close relatives are astounded at the idea however my parents are not. So I would like to knwo what you think, I do love this man...

However, if this is the case (but it seems most unlikely to me) you are fourth cousins and so distantly related that it makes little or no difference.

 It sounds confusing to me. You are cousins but I'm not good with this type of stuff. All I can say is you seem far apart and if it doesn't bother both of you and you love him then who the hell cares? You are both old enough to make your own decision even if he is your first cousin. I don't know how other people feel about this type of situation but I feel anyone with hurtful comments should just mind their own business. You can do as you please.
