Should I marry my cousin if we're in love?

yeah 18 USA states allow cousin marriages so go ahead get married and let the beautiful love bloom and never cheat on each other

Go to a human geneticist for information. There are general rules of this problem, we all know them, but there can be some special personal factors with positive or negative consequneces. Nowadays the genetic science is very developed.

well… that’s not legal where I live, it’s called incest. Personally, I wouldn’t do it. If your family doesn’t agree with it, they have good reason to. if you two have sex and end up pregnant it could cause serious complications for the baby since you guys are so closely related.

well honestly I think it goes against everything we grew up on family vaules honesty im pretty sure you guys are close but may be your aunt or uncle can seperat you guys away from each other for a while!!! you need it

Personally, I don’t think we should. The biggest reason being you don’t seem ready by the sounds of it. I’m not even sure if thats legal or not in the first place. And I personally wouldn’t want to marry someone if my family didn’t want us to be together, it would lead to a future full of problems.

This is fine , you should marry her . no problem it’s not a bad thing don’t worry . This taboo of cousin marriage is nonsense , genetically there is a very small increased risk than a stranger . I think you should just tell everyone to accept it if they love you . otherwise you will regret not being with the woman you love . Cousins are not brothers or sisters !!

so many people have feelings for cousins , thats because’ genetically it’s fine , so it’s natural to feel that way . so no problem go ahead . :)

all the time I hear people say ilegal… bad… lets start with the fact were heumen, animals before everthin els and finsh with that a men shold live as he wishes and not by th fanition of sosiaty (as long as he is full awere of the conscoises) but you how do you hert?

in germny cousins dosnt cont famly at all.

im 20 yars old in love with my 21 (soon 22) cousin and I dont think she fills the same I dont need annyons aprovel for what I do, and I dont think annyone here can help me.

ill be fine and move on I ges even thoth I stere at here picture a lot (on face book) I wont give you her name because I dont want her to know ill hope things turn out wel (genraly) and I do think she knows I love her and ignors it so itwll pass.

so your case is beter then mine look at the bright side.

YES!!!

where I live it is illegal to be with a family member, and im sorry to burst your bubble but so it should be. Put yourself in your parents position, if your son wanted to get involved with his cousin would you feel the same way they do?. and yes it is a fact if you’s decide to have children they have a chance of bein born with abnormalities. You may think you are in love but id seriously think about what you’s are doing because it will affect your whole family now and if you’s have children will affect them too. You’s are so young, you will find love with someone other then your cousin one day
