That's so sick!
Today, I found out my wife of 5 years, with whom we have three kids, is actually my cousin. At a family dinner someone had pointed out how much she looks like my uncle. We laughed until she mentioned that she was adopted from the same town my uncle's ex-wife had a baby. A few questions and a blood test later, we all learned the sick truth. FML

Today, I received a friend request on Facebook. I didn't know her, but she was cute, so I accepted the request. After looking at her pictures, I sent her a message saying "What's up cutie, do I know you?". She responded "Yes, I'm your cousin". FML

I find myself explaining to Doctors that my Romani family is intertwined and my daughter is one generation from having a cousin for a parent. it does cause a lot of health problems

Actually statistically there's no greater chance of genetic problems for children from second cousins. So as long as they're not your first cousin it should be ok.

You must be American. I don't think there's any other country that has this weird problem with cousins and other relatives dating. It's estimated that more than 10% of the world population are either married to a cousin or a product of cousin marriage.

Well, that's far enough, relative-wise isn't it? I say you just go for it!

🤣 awkward yes, but when you find out about it, just apologize and have a non romantic relationship instead.

Second cousin - Nobody really cares. It will give the two of you things to talk about (you know some of the same people).
