ive now been with my cousin as partners for 6 years and also we got married last may so it goes to show that cousin couples can work out.

 i'm fine a little fat round my stomach too, i find sit up and not eating things that make me bloat up helps.
the distance relative thing well its not illegal but it may cause your problems in your families.

 For fat on the tummy, do some crunches and sit ups. Swimming and walking are also really good for the tummy, especially power walking, so is bike riding.
If you do a search on the net you should be able to find some sites with some great exercises you can do at home.
Alternatively, if you belong to a gym or are thinking about joining one, an instructor will be able to show you which equipment to use.
Also eat well, avoid too much fat or sugar but on the whole unless you are really out of shape, I wouldn't worry about a little bit of fat on your tummy, its no big deal.
Eating healthy and excercising is a good idea regardless though!
In terms of your boyfriend, what do you mean by distant? a third cousin? second cousin? Hard to say when we don't know the exact relationship.

 You may want to define distantly. but i'm sure someone else will chime in on this topic.
But as for your comments on your tummy. Make sure your exercise and watch you diet is the easy answer. but don't be too concerned.. personally it's not too terribly bad unless you really let yourself go. and I kinda like some meat on the bones.
