A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Ok, here's the deal:

I am in love with my first cousin once removed (my dad's nephew's son).

We didn't meet until we were 13 and 14 and when we met we didn't know that we were related. He has two children and is planning a vasectomy in a few weeks. I don't want him to get it. We just realized that our feelings for each other are mutual and we really want to be together.

We are terrified of our families finding out.

I want to have kids with him but if we do, then we could never tell anyone in the family that they are his. He couldn't live with that. I love him with all my heart. What should we do?

in some states, first cousins can marry and have children. ask your mom how she feels about it.

I had sex with my cousin many times. We loved each other but knew we could not be together. She married and would set up meetings for us. Just something you either make work or let go. We let go and just connected when we could.

So_Very_Confused agony auntWell you not wanting him to get a vasectomy is really null and moot.

It's his body and he has two kids... he clearly knows he can only afford to support two kids... he's being an adult and making a choice.

I do not see how you two can be together without the families finding out.

and the plant o have kids with him and not tell anyone in the family they are his... is well juvenile and foolish.

It's legal for you to date... if you both can't be adult enough to tell your family about it, then you should not do it...
