heyy im 14 and my cousin is 19 and we are kinda dating of course he is my 2nd cousin but we love each other and we dont no how to tell our family because we are family and both our parents are strict I need help xx

Answer #1

I don’t think your parents would mind.. really. All that matters is that you love each other! :)

Answer #2

sit them down and explain it all, theyre probably not gonna like it though…

Answer #3

There are two problems here - the relation and the ages. That will absolutely not work, you are way too young.

I’d also like to say that it’s “legal” to date anyone, obviously. It’s only illegal to marry a first cousin and closer.

Answer #4

grroosss even if it is yur second cuzin… thts nasty its still the same f* blood line

Answer #5

omg dont mind the comment up above me its not in your blood line dont be ridiculose I cant help you on telling your parents but you shouldnt stop because what people say on this please dont I dont even know my second cosins so that even shows you that being a second cousin is like a made up thing if the two of yous are in love well continue dating you only live once hay good luck xxx

Answer #6

cousins are allowed to go out with each other cus the blood isnt close enough to cause complications to off spring

anyway with that out the way and every1 moaning about yuk, cousins…

did anyone actually see the ages???

a 19yo bloke going out with a 14yo girl is against the law and makes him a pedopile, sex case

I hope you get caught and he goes to prison for abusing an underage girl

Answer #7

abc123, lexxi5 Why does it matter? They love each other. Thats all that matters, isn’t it? Its not like incest ffs!

Answer #8

Ya…the age is what worries me…14 and 19…that’s a little to much of a difference…it is illegal for your cousin to be dating you. If it was per say 20 and 25 thats ok, but you are seen as a child in many ppls eyes still. As for the being blood… what ever you feel is ok morally, if you think its right ok… but you should know its not legal to date your blood until you reach 3rd cousin.
