Ok this is a really, really awkward question... I have a cousin... actually, he's my 4th cousin... and he rides my bus, and last year (in 7th grade) we became pretty close and everything (that was the year we figured out we were related). By the way, he's about half a year younger than me and in a grade lower. And he is really WRONG. Like, he's really perverted, but he is hilarious. So now that I'm in 8th grade, I've really missed him over the summer-we didn't do anything together. I don't talk to him much because I'm always in the very back, but I've found myself... uhm... trying to get his attention sort of. Here comes the really bizarre part... well, I think I might like him.... oh God that sounds weird... so that's my dilemma. I can't even ask my very best friend what to do, because she knows we're 4th cousins and that he's pretty much a freakshow. But I always find myself thinking about him, because he's really, really cute and has the hottest voice ever... ugh, there I go again!... I'm losing it... it's so weird, and I really want to find someone A. My own age, B. Not a perv and C. NOT RELATED to me, not even if it's distant. Please, PLEASE help me, I have no idea what to do!!! I feel like a total wreck... (link)

No, it's not wierd at all! Do you know that its extraordinarily common for cousins to feel affection amongst each other? Not just family affection, but other affections as well (a.k.a. attraction). You are technically related, but if you really think about it, he is your 4th cousin .. FOURTH cousin .. unless his family holds very close relations to yours, I see nothing wrong with getting involved with him.
Don't worry about the age thing; it sort of seems like a big deal now, but in the long run, one or two years difference is not totally mindblowing.
So, you're not a perv. Don't feel like a wreck; it's perfectly normal to feel things for him, espcecially if you get along well. Just talk to him. Hey, you may even discover that you two should just be friends. Or who knows!
Best of luck,
xxLoveSweetxx
