However, you are now related by marriage. There may be further complications if your respective step-parents adopted each of you.
Legally, I can't find any references, and I imagine that it varies from state to state. You may have to ask a local attorney about that one.
Biblically, sexual relations with a step-sibling is, I'm pretty sure, one of the prohibited relationships.
In the quick research I did before I answered this, I found that sexual attraction towards a step-sibling is not uncommon. Especially if they became step-siblings in their teens.
You're in the same house with this same guy every day, you each know a lot of intimate details about each other. You already have a ready made framework for a relationship.
Should you both try to control your animal urges and refrain? I think yes.
Most people in society would label such a relationship incestuous. You would face a lot of negative pressure.
Also, living in the same household, what do you do after the relationship is over? It would be terribly awkward.
Give it time, wait until you both grow up. If you both still have those feelings then, you may be able to do something about it, though you might have to do some legal manuervering such as divorcing from your parents or moving to another state. [ elipongo's advice column | Ask elipongo A Question ]

i hope i helped.

isis answered Monday July 24 2006, 5:37 am: It would not be classed as incest as you are not blood related. Unless you belong to a culture that does not approve of any romantic involvement between relations of any kind, I cannot see any reason why you should not go for it.
Hope that helps and good luck. [ isis's advice column | Ask isis A Question ]

No, it would not be insest. If you and him had sex and had kids, there would be nothing wrong with that because you're not blood and do not have any of the same genes or germs or anything that only family members share.
Although it would be awkward ((to me personally)) but if it's okay with you, have at it! :-)
It's not illegal or "sick" in any way!
I'm the same way with my "cousin".
See, my dad's stepmom's daughter's son and I could get married, simply because we're not blood...
:-)
I hope I answered your question the way you hoped someone would!
