My cousin's family invited me to go on a cruise with them to Cancun and Cozemel. I really want to go but if my cousin and I spend at least 2 hours together, we don't get along. She will get mad at me and I will have no one to hang out with because her dad's side of the family is coming, too (I don't know them because we're not related) But this is a once in a lifetime opportunity...Should I go or no??
AnGiix3BaBii answered Wednesday March 16 2005, 10:33 pm: I would you
you two should try to find something you have in common then build off that. Plus if she annoys you dont be rude back. Maybe hang out with her ASAP and try these:
1) if you feel an argument coming up change the topic or find something to do like jump on the trmapoline er something
2) If shes just not leaving you alone make up an excuse like. i have to take a shower or i have to do my hair. Take the 20 minutes of downtime to calm down.
3) dont remember all the arguments of the past .. pretend your just meeting each other

BLONDE911 answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 11:18 pm: haha cousins are just like that. Try your hardest to get along and dont get frustrated. You should go, sometimes me and my cousins do that, but its normal! You will get into fights but it will work out. Maybe have a talk with her before you go saying that if yall will get mad at each other, you WILL work it out! hope you hav fun! xoxo BLONDE911 [ BLONDE911's advice column | Ask BLONDE911 A Question ]
lostinside answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 9:23 pm: I would go. If you don't, you will probably regret it later. Does your cousin agree that you two don't get along? Maybe you two can try to work things out, and think of ways not to get on each other's nerves. Maybe tell her what she does to get on your nerves, and vise versa. Then you could try avoiding doing those things. I think it'd be an awesome trip though!

Draak answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 4:30 pm: If I was in your shoes, I'd definitely go. This is an opportunity, not only to see other parts of the world, but to get to know other amazing people as well. If you and your cousin are not getting along after two hours, there will be other people on the cruise besides your family. Mingle! Make lifetime friendships! AND it's OKAY to enjoy things by yourself at times.
angelinluv6767 answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 4:00 pm: i would soo go on the trip! lol. Me and my sister are jsut like that. we cant be together more than a few hours and we start to argue. But i have learned to forgive. Try not to fight on the trip and if you do fight, try to hang out with other people! hope this helped.

PinkPrincess42 answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 3:26 pm: If I were you, I wouldnt pass up a chnace to go to Cancun no matter who invited me. It would be the chance of a lifetime to go, and I know you will regret it if you dont go. You should definately go and try to hang out with other people that you meet down there. Maybe you and your cousin will get along this once because you guys will be on an awesome vaction. I just know you will have a blast! It will be awesome! Start Packin!

Wowitzbrit answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 3:21 pm: You should go, because if you don't you'll regret it and that's not good. If you and your cousin do start to fight or you think something is going to lead to a fight just apologize right then and there and let your gaurd down. I mean it would be different if it was your side of the family but don't let stupid fights get in your way of having fun. Good luck.
baybexmau831 answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 3:12 pm: u should go .. make friends with some second cousins when your there so that if she does get mad your not all alone ... it sounds fun!! have fun if you go!! .. hope i helped ..

ballerina04 answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 2:53 pm: I would definitely try and go because as you said, it's a once in a lifetime opportunity. Maybe you should get to know your cousin better. Invite her to lunch or go shopping. [ ballerina04's advice column | Ask ballerina04 A Question ]
tiffanyadams answered Tuesday March 15 2005, 2:52 pm: You should definitely go! But go with an open mind. You've already set yourself up to expect the worst from her and yourself. Instead, expect to have fun not only with her, but with any new people you may meet from her other side of the family. Besides, being someplace different in a new climate with so much to do on the cruise ship and on land often brings out a different side of people. You never know, you two may come home best friends (or you may ditch her if she's being mean and find all new friends to hang out with!) Keep an open mind, and don't miss this opportunity! Take lots of photos! [ tiffanyadams's advice column | Ask tiffanyadams A Question ]
