Just tell people you've always wanted a small wedding where families of bride and groom don't pick a side to sit on.

We did this, but we are NOT related.

Why did I bring this to the OT. I'm just looking for one serious answer. I really like her. I don't know what to do.

Relax, you're only cousins by blood. It's not that big of a deal.

4th cousins

Frowned upon but probably legal

I don't feel like figuring it out, but you are like 2nd or 3rd cousins twice or three times removed.

Quite a bit of difference, pretty sure it would definitely be legal to get married.

I'm sure your children will have great personalities with their lopsided faces.

Ya'll are 2nd cousins once removed.

Everyone tries to make people 4th, 5th cousins etc. But that's now how that is calculated.

Your mom and her grandmother were first cousins. You and her mom are 2nd cousins. Since she is a generation down from you then that's the once removed.

Your mother and her grandmother are cousins, if you can't tell quickly and easily how closely related you two are off of that, it probably doesn't matter that much man.

Do what makes you happy, you're face is what you will get made fun of more so than anything else anyways.

Sorry man, it’s just a little too close of relation. It will eventually get weird. Sucks for you because the families are completely separate but seem to share your mom’s great great grandmother.

This. Bottom line is you’re related. If that doesn’t answer the question you have issues

Most obvious is parent/child but the law is any marriage to, or sexual intercourse with brother or sister, uncle or niece, aunt or nephew, with knowledge of their relationship is incest... and it is irrelevant whether by whole or half blood. It is a felony sex crime with an 18 year statute of limitations and can carry a 5 year prison sentence.

what the OP describes is neither illegal or a genetic deformity risk.
