Awkward pause

Today, a close friend called me to inform me of his newest relationship, and why he's kept it from me - he's been seeing his male cousin for several months and was tired of hiding it from the world. I had to keep my shock in check over the phone. FML

If it's his first degree cousin, they should be careful not to have kids. Maybe one of them should get on the pill. On an unrelated note, I flunked biology in high-school.

That's the joke about the biology flunking lol. While it's strange, if people are adults and no one was groomed and they're not having kids -shrugs- no ones harmed and it ain't my problem lol

Did you ask why he picked you to confess to?

Be sure you continue to support him. It's still difficult for those in the LGBTQ+ community to come out.

problem isn't him coming out.... problem is he dating his cousin

Marriage between cousins is actually legal in many states and in many countries around the world, and even more so if there is no chance of pregnancy.

Depending on where he lives, it's not a problem. Especially if they're not first cousins. There's still plenty of people who need to realize that.

Hey...on the bright side, at least he trusted you to vent to? So that says something positive about your character?... 🤢

I once went to see "Kiss of the Spider Woman" with a male cousin. We entered when the trailers were rolling so the theater was dark. When we got up to leave at the end, we noticed that pretty much the entire audience was made up of male couples. Oops!
