I am confused about how I feel about my cousin.

My cousin and I aren't blood related e.g. his mum is not my Aunty. We were bought up together as young kids and have always got on really well, when I was younger I used to look up to him and he always used to be very protective over me and his sister - the same age as me. Recently He stayed at Uni with me because he had a job down the road we were both really drunk and ended up kissing. Is this really wrong? I don't know how to deal with the situation.
Do you think it's normal?

It's hard to see what's wrong with being attracted to someone unrelated to you except by title.
Still, sometimes people judge -- especially family.
The riskiest thing might be that once the infatuation is satisfied, he will still be around.

I think you should find out whether it was a drunk thing for him before you do anything else...
Anyway, your families could actually be pleased, you never know:)

it's kind of weird because you were raised as family but at least you're not blood related

Well, he's your cousin & you were all raised together in a family context. And booze does weird things. I'm guessing you neither planned or want things to go that far again. So just talk to him & set things straight.
