I understand your frustration about your situation, you said yourself that you and your "cousin" are distant relatives, but is the family close? is there a close relationship between your family and hers? or is it that you just see her at family events?
You should speak to your family, talk about how your not technically related to her, then drop the bombshell of how you feel, whats the worst that can happen? if your family really do care about you they should be supporting you for what you believe in.
And its hard to fight the feelings of love, right?
Hope this helps
