Well is he your first cousin? And I say as long as your legally divorced then go for it. Just no children! I can understand where you are coming from. Just be safe and keep it on the DL if possible.

I think it is our human NATURE to sometimes be attracted to people we shouldn't be attracted to. It's honestly happened to me that I've felt kind of "attracted" to my cousins and even gone as far as being a little bit flirtatious and I think that's innocent enough, but I think you should restrain yourself. In life, sometimes there are limits that shouldn't be crossed. It's just a pesky ATTRACTION and you should just leave it at that.

If you're distant cousins, then you may be in luck, but if he's the son of one of your parent's siblings, then JUST STOP IT. That's just too much.

I'd suggest you stop texting him and keeping in contact with him (the temptation will just INCREASE that way) and you restrain yourself from your cousin and just try to be happy with your husband or try to meet other people.

I totally think these attractions are normal, they HAPPEN, but you just have to be a big girl and realize that this is not right and that you have to cut the contact for the best of you both.

I find myself in a similar situation, but I'm afraid that mine is more complicated. My wife has zero interest in sex, but I still want it. My cousin, lost her husband 2 years ago (we're both 57). We were always attracted to each other but never did anything about it. She recently confided in me that she misses the sex very much and we have always been very open with each other with talking about relationships. Her family is set and she can't get pregnant and I have no kids nor do I want any. I am considering approaching her about becoming "friends with benefits". Any comments?

Btw, I'm sorry, but I forgot to mention to you that, yes, I do think that you are normal. Just be very discreet, as I doubt if the reat of your family would approve if you were found out.

reat=rest

Its frowned upon, but I can sort of understand. I have a cousin who is pretty and im close to, but I dont feel that way about her and I dont think I ever will.

It isn't completely wrong, but as someone else said, do not have children and make sure you are legally divorced.

i have been there i dated and had sex with her so you are not alone the heart wants wat the heart wants. so i say don't fight just embrace it and enjoy it

i say go for it man i did and im happy and i don't care who likes it or not so tell her wat you just said here to us man

I use to slip the johnson in my cousin we had great fun for many years. It was great.

This is pervasive and on going throughout the world, do as your heart leads you to do

FDR and his wife were first cousins.I have a second cousin I've had the hots for sense we were old enough to know each other.I have found out she always had it for me. She never had children and the thought of banging her gets the wood moving.If that chance ever comes I'll jump at it.

Well, we actually did get to act on it. My wife had to go out of town so I invited my cousin here to just get together, and when she got here, we just took one look at each other and knew what was going to happen. We didn't even talk...just hugged and went into the bedroom and tore each other's clothes off. It was the best sex I've had in a long time. She even liked to do things like anal and swallowing cum that my wife would never do. We plan on getting together every time my wife goes out of town now.

me and my cousins were very curious as kids of 5 yrs old !! we would make out and show our privates i feel its wrong but cool at times!

IF U LOVE HIM AND HE LOVES YOU THEN THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO !!!!!! IT EVEN RHYMES!!!!

YOU ARE COMPLETELY NORMAL. There are many uninformed people in the U.S. regarding cousin relationships. Visit www.cousincouples.com and read the info. There was also an article in the New York Times regarding cousins marrying and having children. The risk is VERY low.

By the way, my 1st cousin and I have been married 8 yrs and are expecting our first daughter. She is perfectly healthy in every way! (and we were married in the Catholic Church, which was fully aware. :)

i am in a similar situation my cousin and i just bacame of age and i really really really wish i could tell her but i just dont have the cojones i wish she would give me something to work with but it is wat it is and trust me u are normal

If a relationship is safe, sane, and consenual then there's nothing wrong with it.

You're both consenting, you don't plan on doing anything crazy, and it's perfectly safe.

If you love each other, there's nothing wrong with it. There's no danger of having "mutant babies" or anything in cousin couples (as far as I know).

It is frowned upon, yet i dont think theres anything wrong with that, a word of advice,SCIENCE HAS SHOWN US THAT IF KISSING COUSINS(if you will) HAVE A CHILD THERE WILL BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT.

For the sake of your marriage, don't meet with him. Regardless that he is family, your basically cheating on him. If your doing something that your husband doesn't know about, and you don't want him to find out about it, that constitutes as bad as cheating. You need to stop talking to your cousin, at least until you figure things out with your husband. And really, if you let the marriage fail so you can continue the charade with your cousin, like is that honestly a relationship that could develop in the future? probably not, as your family. So you need to get over him.
