Secretly loving someone

Hey, everyone.

How can I overcome the feelings I have for my cousin?

I'm 31, she's 27. It's been over 10 years and I still love her and want to be with her. I never told her how I feel and don't think I should, despite wanting to.

She's just what I want; modest, honest, witted, goofy and kinda tomboyish, though she can act like a lady if needed. The problem is that it's her that I want as well, and not just her traits.

Any tips on getting rid of the love I feel for her?

Thanks for your time, and sorry if this topic is forbidden.

    It's normal to be attracted to a relative but you've got to get over it. She's off limits. Find yourself a girl your age with similar interests.

    Such a Mariage may still be allowed in certain States. You would have to research that subject for each State.

    However, there's nothing wrong with loving your cousin... even if you cannot marry in your State.

    You might be best to tell her... and let her decide what the possibilities are. She may have zero interest in you... which would wrap things up in one direction.

    I wish you the best,

    I'm sorry you have to go through this. I know how it feels to be cursed with a forbidden love. And how judgmental and cruel people can be.
