writes: okay. i'm just wondering if i'm related to my aunt's ex-husbands son from another marriage. here's the story...my aunt was married to this guy, lets call him scott, they got divorced years ago (i was like 2, i'm 22 now) and scott went off and had a son with another woman. meanwhile scott and my aunt have two daughters which are my cousins obviously bc my aunt is my mom's sister. my aunt has since remarried and been married to this guy for awhile. what i need to know is if i'm related to the son that scott had from another marriage? my aunt always tried setting us up so i don't think she'd do that knowing we're related but i'm just curious...please help!!!

Oh, just that your female cousins might not like seeing their cousin date their half-brother. But if your aunt is trying to set you up with him, then there's probably no hard feelings. It's not like you need to let your cousins determine your dating life, after all.
Just think through what might happen if things don't go well with him and you wind up not liking him very much. Can you tolerate the situation it will cause? That's all. Just think about all the possible outcomes.
Good luck!

I'd say you are not related... I think it's okay to date him from that standpoint. However, there may be some bitter feelings out there. Do your best to understand them.
