We can't help who we fall in love with, and fortunately for you, you are not breaking the law by having a relationship with your 2nd cousin.

I know someone who did the same, they have been together 15 years, are now married and have 3 wonderful children and are very happy. At first there were a few unhappy people, making snide comments, but they soon got bored and moved on to something else to gossip about.

There may be a few relatives that find it hard to accept, especially if you are all close, however, I suggest you stand tall and don't let other peoples comments come between you.....Life is too short!

Problem.helper agony auntLegally it's not wrong but since you are blood related you will get some judgement from other people. As long you re comfortable with it and you are in love I don't think it matter what anyone else thinks.

Dataluke agony auntIn the eyes of the law no, its perfectly legal, you family though might have some moral issues about it.

I once fell for my second cousin and we thought it could work. But as teenagers it could never work out and our families wouldn't have been happy about it. But if we could have, we'd have made it work.

I hope it works out for you.

All the best, Dataluke
