1- I am in a relationship with my cousin. We told our parents just a few months ago they were not happy about it but they are slowly coming around. We are completly in love. I have been in love with him since I was 13 years old I'm 19 now.
2- I lost my vrginity to him. I don't feel any regrets about it. It was everything I would have wanted it to be he was super nice and sweet about it and made sure he didn't hurt me!
3- I am a very sexual person a freak under cover you can say because by my looks you would never know lol.
4- My boyfriend (my cousin) and I really want to have a baby. But I'm still in college so we know we have to wait. It makes me a little sad because I would love to have a baby with him now, but even so I understand waiting is the best choice we have made
5- The most important person in my life is my mother. But a times she can be fast to judge. I was never really myself growing up because I was to afraid of disapointing her. But this is my life and I want to be happy. If my choices have hurt her I am truly sorry!!
PS: I know many people will think I am nasty for being with my cousin. But love just happens I didn't plan for him to be the one things just truned out that way. I have done a lot of learning on the topic and found its a lot more common then people think. I also found out that children born from cousins only have a 2% higher risk of coming out with problems. I know a women who had 4 sons with her cousin and all for are perfectly healthy. So I hope that people start to educate themselfs more on the subject before the go out saying crazy things that are not true. Everyone can choose to judge me, but I feel No shame. Because for once I am truly happy and that's what counts!!!

I think from what I know of my social history, the taboo about marrying cousins is a fairly new thing (relatively speaking--no pun intended), much like romantic marriages are more of a 20th century thing than having a great long historical basis. So there you go.
ReplyDeleteMmm, I think it would be great to hear Kelly's in take on this one what is your opinion on the subject???
ReplyDeleteWell, on the one hand I am sometimes very surprised by the number of people who write in to the site talking about having sexual encounters with cousins or other family members, both voluntary and not. That was very much a forbidden topic in my family as with many.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I had cousins of the opposite sex who were my age and attractive, who is to say what I would have thought about it had I not so feared the wrath of my parents?
I think that the poster has made it obvious that she has given the matter careful consideration and I'm proud of her for being brave enough to tell her parents. I'm also glad that she is waiting to have children, but that is more because I know that so many people who have children at a young age regret it in one way or another regardless of how much they love their children.
The only thing about the situation that gives me real pause is that in the event the relationship doesn't work out, it leaves both in a pretty awkward position -- family is forever, even if love isn't. For me, it's always been really hard to be around an ex of any kind, even just an ex friend. But as the poster said, love happens. It doesn't sound like this sprung from any kind of abuse situation, so live and let live. She has a tough enough row to hoe in dealing with the judgement of the rest of the world without me making it worse. Good luck to you, poster.
I don't know if its just me, but I think that this post has kind of opened the door for people to come forward with this kind of secret. I have read about three post that speak on the subject today! Do you get the same feeling Kelly??
