writes: Well I am 15 as well is my step cousin who I have a huge crush on. I've known her for about a year and a half and I like to flirt with her and she flirts with me a lot. My step dad said at the beginning of his and my mom's relationship that me and her would be perfect for eachother. Her and I have held hands and cuddled as well we have slept in the same bed as eachother. So basically what I'm trying to get at is, should I tell her how I feel or should I kiss her or something?

StraightEdge777 is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThanks for the answer. When we slept in the same bed it was at her house and our parents knew (Nothing happened just want to point out).
Also another question to everyone is that she has an older sister that is 19 who I am very good friends with as well. Should I tell her how I feel about her sister that's my age that I like?

Ask your parents NOW how they would feel if you hooked up with your step-cousin. It is also important to know how her parents would feel. There is no blood relationship, and you do not live in the same household. I don't think there is anything legally wrong unless she is 18. It doesn't sound like she is.
I would not proceed with any advancement until I at least knew whether my parents would support the relationship. If you do proceed, don't start with your feelings. That could ruin a good thing. Maybe a peck on the cheek and hugging. Move slowly.
As a parent, I will tell you that I would flip out if one of my children had a relationship with a step-cousin. I would discourage it. While nothing seems well defined in the relationship at this point, it would be easy to back out before it does get more involved.
At your age, I don't think it is appropriate to sleep in the same bed. Was that at your house with your parents' knowledge?
Not meaning to be judgmental--just to give you a different viewpoint. Have a great day!
