A reader, anonymous, writes (25 July 2010):

Well, I think most people have felt the lure of attraction to cousins close in age. Because you're cousins, that settles an automatic feeling of bonding which (coupled with hormones) can cause you think that it's love or something. Now, if you're second cousins, that's more accepted as the genetic link is less. But first cousins...if you were to get in relationship, your family would be devasted, you'd be breaking the law, and you'd be taking a HUGE gamble in having children as you share a lot of the same genes so they're more likely to inherit various family diseases and ailments. If you feel you have to tell her, consider how awkward it might get between you two if she doesn't like you back. Think this through, is your friendship with her worth putting in peril? Take some time away from her, date other girls.

I think your hormones are very high and your way in over your head.I know you thought somewhere deep down in your heart, that you know that it is wrong to have thoughts or want your cousin like that. In reallity i cant stop or convince you to not do it so the best thing for me to say is to find someone that is like your cousin.
