I recall some years ago (maybe even pre Covid) that a poster on this board started dating a woman (maybe at church?) and they really hit it off. Well turns out they’re cousins that I guess somehow got separated/adopted/etc..?

And then I think they both said frick it and decided to go with it.

Am I crazy or did that actually happen? The thread about common ancestry within a marriage made me think to ask.

They moved to Alabama where that kind of thing is tolerated, I think.

They had kids who tell all their secrets because they can only keep one mouth shut.

My son called me while in Hawaii about a Navy officer girl he met that had the same last name. He said he hit it off with her and she was super hot. She said she was of Dominican Republic. He told me that if they got married they would not have to change her last name.
I told my 80yr old dad about it and he laughed. My cousin married a girl from the Dominican Republic and had a daughter who was an officer on some ship. He told me that was my cousin's daughter.
I called my son and informed him. I could not let him go thru with it.

small world.

I think I posted this in the original thread about the cousin dating a cousin a long time ago.

When I first moved to Texas, I met 3 first cousins I hadn't seen since childhood that were hotter than most of the women there.

While I was from Arkansas, they were not (aunt married a doctor in Corpus) so I did not try to partake.

Because they were second cousins? What’s wrong with them being together?

You would be surprised to know that there quite a few people married to their 5th/6th/7th, etc cousins and don't even know it. Especially if you come from a big family.

5th cousins share roughly .1% of DNA. Us YTs have between 1-2% neanderthal DNA. I think they'll be okay.
